I can vividly recall Dr. Griffith standing in front of the Board of Commissioners (unsolicited) 2 and a half years ago and addressing the anonymous accusations of county employees. He was at that time an advocate of immediate investigation and action based on unproven statements and secretly penned letters to commissioners.
The county spent much time in the media, lost a County Manager and multiple directors, and had censorship and raised voices at commissioner meetings. The politics and drama of how Pender County does business gets embarrassing at times.
I find the irony of Dr. Griffiths position at this time quite an interesting. Maybe it’s just inevitable for this particular county's government and its leaders.
