Former Marion Police Chief Gideon Cody returned Monday to the town where he raided a newspaper to face a dozen journalists along with a felony charge for his actions after the raid.

    Cody won’t be required to pay a cash bond. Instead, Rosauer ordered a $5,000 personal recognizance bond, which Cody only will have to pay if he fails to show up to court when required.

    Wow, can any other criminal get such a sweetheart deal?

    Can’t wait to see this asshat in jail.

    And then for his victims to sue the shit out if him.

    Fuck this guy, he deserves everything coming to him.

      “Monday’s hearing, which lasted less than 10 minutes, was Cody’s first public appearance in the town since he resigned as police chief…”

      Yep.
