What about Van de Vate?
ReplyDeleteI hear there is a probablity that Van de Vate will remain in the Burchett administration but not in his current capacity. However, should he not be invited to stay with the Mayor's office. The word is that he will return to the Sheriff's Department having to move from the sixth floor back down to L-1
