A woman in Florida says her 55-year-old “medically fragile” father was falsely accused of theft at a Florida grocery store last week and then seriously injured in a violent encounter with police. Now, she says, he is hospitalized and has lost the ability to speak.

        For elected positions technically anybody.

        Practically it’s a police officer endorsed by the previous chief and/or police union.
