Florida Governor Ron DeSantis filed an executive order declaring an official vacancy on the Broward School Board. Rodney Velez, the winner of the District 1 election in November, is ineligible to hold public office. Executive Order 22-279 will declare a vacancy on the Board which will allow Governor DeSantis to appoint a replacement.
The Florida Commission On Ethics confirmed it found probable cause in a complaint filed against Broward Sheriff Gregory Tony. REDBROWARD broke the news about the private hearing held last Friday. In a press release, the Commission stated:
“The Commission rejected the recommendation of its Advocate and found probable cause to believe Broward County Sheriff GREG TONY misused his public position when he provided false information or did not disclose information during the appointment process for his service as Broward County Sheriff; when completing a notarized Form 68 submitted to FDLE while serving as Broward County Sheriff; and when applying to renew his driver’s license while serving as a law enforcement officer.”
Will Florida Governor Ron DeSantis address the Gregory Tony matter in January?
Stay tuned.
