We had one person in the past qualified to be a chief in Tabor City (an FBI academy graduate, and former Capt. and Lead Homicide Investigator for Columbus County in the past), but he quit on his on terms because of the corruption and politics involved in Tabor City, and because of the Town Manager and the politicians telling him how he must do his job.
The current Chief worked for the DMV. As for the rest of the TC officers they just slap a title of LT. or Detective regardless of experience. I have never seen a Police Chief show up for court in a Hawaiian type shirt! You would think he would have been in uniform or a suit. Embarrassing for TC.
