Former police chief who quit over neo-Nazi past gets a new JOB with neighboring police force
Bart Alsbrook was hired as the interim chief of the Colbert Police Department on August 22, 2017, only 10 days after the 'Unite the Right' rally took place in Charlottesville
Bart Alsbrook, a police chief in Oklahoma, who was forced to resign from his post after his neo-Nazi links came to light, has been hired as a reserve officer with a neighboring police force. In August 2017, Alsbrook, the interim chief for the town of Colbert, resigned a week after he admitted to his connections with white supremacist groups.
Despite knowing about Alsbrook's past, the Achille police chief Christopher Watson hired him as a reserve officer in the department. Speaking of this in an interview, he had said: "Everyone has a past, some of which they may not be proud of, of which he is not. He wishes he never had those connections."
