[QUOTE="_CY_, post: 2744316, member: 7629"] here's the latest chit ... ========= Protesters File Petition to Investigate Tulsa Sheriff May 06, 2015 TULSA, Okla. - Rallies by community activist group We the People Oklahoma have become a familiar sight in downtown Tulsa. But at Wednesday's rally, the group had something new to talk about. Dozens of protesters marched from through downtown from 2nd Street and Elgin, to the Tulsa County Sheriff's office a few blocks away. There were even some new faces in the crowd, like State Senator Kevin Matthews. "I'm here to say that my community wants the leadership to change, and I agree with them," said Matthews. A few hours before the protest, Attorney for We the People Oklahoma Laurie Phillips filed a petition for a grand jury investigation. In the petition, Phillips lays out the reasons she believes Tulsa County Sheriff Stanley Glanz should be removed from office. Reasons like not maintaining proper records, giving special treatment to certain people, putting the public at risk and a lack of proper training for reserve deputies. All stemming from the shooting death of Marc Harris by 73-year-old reserve deputy Robert Bates. "It's time for him to step down," said Marc Lewis with We the People Oklahoma. Oklahoma law does not allow or recall elections. "This is the only recourse that our citizens have to take up to remove an elected official," said Lewis. A judge now has until Tuesday, May 12, to determine whether the petition warrants a grand jury investigation.
