Well, the rumors are true, then.
After an executive session during the April commissioners meeting, people around Rotan were asking each other if Fisher County still had a sheriff. I kept asking them, "What are y'all talking about?", and they would just shrug their shoulders and say "I don't know, I just heard we don't have a sheriff."
Although there was no public record of the subject or decision of that session, that is when people started saying that Sheriff Randy Ford had resigned.
People say gossip is a sin, but it's really the best, and sometimes only, way to hear news.
"Appoint New Sheriff" is number 14 on the agenda for the July 10 commissioners meeting.
7/10/2023 update:
Commissioners unanimously voted for Simon Wade, resident of the McCaulley area, to assume duty as Fisher County Sheriff.
