About this episode
Send a textMantua, Ohio, is already in chaos after a 12-hour disciplinary hearing that looked more like theater than due process. Now we find out the body-worn camera from a key October 6th meeting wasn’t even from Mantua’s own department – it was from the Chief of Hiram, who is also serving as Mantua’s interim chief. ?In this episode of The Infamous Ex-Chief, I break down why I support former Mantua Chief Joe Urso based on evidence, not personalities. I walk you through the October 6th meeting where Solicitor Mason reads a list of charges, declares Urso “on paid administrative leave” and “going to be terminated” before council ever holds a hearing. We look at how the body cam shows keys, passwords, a K-9, and even cash changing hands in a scramble that screams zero planning and no respect for real policy.Then we talk about the bigger problem: Hiram’s chief acting as a de facto peace officer in Mantua without clear jurisdictional authority, and now running both agencies at the same time. That’s not just bad optics – that’s a recipe for liability. I also explain why the North Royalton case, where a chief allegedly altered an officer’s report, is a completely separate situation and why both still matter for public accountability, police corruption concerns, and small-town Ohio politics. ??If you care about true crime, body cam footage, and what “public accountability” should really look like in Ohio, this episode is for you. ?Be loud. Be heard.
