While the mayor credits Barnes for boosting recruitment and reducing downtown crime, she offers no clear reason for his ouster, citing “multiple factors” and the tragic weekend as key influences. Critics—including Black community groups, business leaders, and City Council members—are outraged, questioning the decision. In her press conference, Mayor Wilson praised Barnes’ service but asserted her superior insight into the department’s inner workings. The new interim chief, Andre Sayles, vows to ramp up officer presence at public events and says investigators are closing in on the shooter’s accomplices. As the investigation continues, tensions rise—and the community demands transparency. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
