Johnny Payne was fired from his position as a school resource officer after refusing to resign or withdraw from the race for Camden County Sheriff. A former Camdenton police officer who was fired from his job for filing to run for County sheriff found it hard to get his job back, generating little support from local officials. Payne who exercised his rights has decided on an appeal process which will allow him 10 days to file a petition with the board of aldermen to re-consider the firing. In the hearing the Board upheld the firing saying it violated an ordinance to run for office.
