Moody, McFadgon Retiring

Posted by Flyer Staff on Mon, Jun 29, 2009 at 12:41 PM

City Hall announced today that Public Services director Ken Moody, public services deputy director Yalanda McFadgon, and deputy library director Michael Gray will retire in July.

Moody and McFadgon were recently criticized for their role in the problems at the Memphis Sexual Assault Resource Center, commonly known as MSARC.

At last week's press conference announcing his retirement, Memphis mayor Willie Herenton said other administration officials also planned to retire.

Wow! Who would've thought that criminals could retire with a government pension.

I think the boat has a hole in it, and it's taking in water.

With 'a' government pension???.

Some of them are double dipping if not more.

....and the poor teachers can't get a raise, and have to work second jobs.

Willie's got a penchant for picking pension pinchers.

Imagine having an MCS, City of Memphis and Congressional pension all rolled into one--bet you wouldn't have any copays.

The really pathetic part of all of this is that city workers have to put in 25 years to get a percentage of their base salary, and can have that stripped away by the pension board for having a conviction. These thugs and miscreants are going out the door with more pension funds than the rank and file make working and with only a fraction of the time put in! This is an utter disgrace!!
