The marathon Madison Common Council Meeting on Tuesday lasted for 12 hours, and culminated in terminating the extended contract of Interim Independent Police Monitor Aeiramique Glass, with a 14-6 vote. Julia Matthews, Madison Alder for district 12 was one of the six alders who voted against the termination of Glass. Today on A Public Affair, Matthews debriefed the meeting from her perspective. Public comment for the meeting lasted 8 hours, with over 100 pages of written comments. Matthews describes the public as justifiably angry, but many people also gave heartfelt remarks about Interim Police Monitor Glass and felt betrayed by her dismissal. Chief of Staff of Council Karen Kapusta-Pofahl will take up the office until there is a permanent monitor hired, rather than appointing another interim.
