Keep 'Em Separated
The Office of the Inspector General and the Commission on Ethics and Public Trust may part ways after an acrimonious year

Passage of a proposed ordinance will allow Inspector General Christopher Mazzella to continue his crime fighting
Carey-Shuler is right to propose this reorganization. Nothing would be gained if the OIG halted its criminal investigations, and much would be lost. In addition, it doesn't make sense to have ethics commissioners, a group made up of lawyers and professors, attempt to oversee the IG. Under the proposed arrangement, active members of the criminal justice world would have the minimal oversight needed to hold the IG accountable. Beyond that, the IG will be left alone to do his job. And we all know there's plenty of work to do.
