So I have finally decided what my blog will be about. Each week I will discuss some current event in the state of New Hampshire. This week I have decided to talk about the firing (and subsequent lawsuit) of Fremont Police Chief Neal Janvrin. He was fired in August amid allegations of "poor decision making" and being "physically incapable" of doing the job. He has been a police officer for over 43 years and I believe should not have been fired. As a chief, the duties are overwhelmingly administrative, therefore why should his physical ability have anything to do with his job description? WMUR.com also states that "Janvrin's lawyer said his client denies making inconsistent decisions and is unaware of any policies he violated. He said Janvrin hasn't previously been disciplined or warned."

This all sounds like a political move in which the town board of selectmen want to install a different chief and simply need to create excuses to get rid of Janvrin. Someone with that amount of public service doesn't deserve to be railroaded in this kind of fashion and I believe that the town of Fremont will come to regret their decision.
