Snowden: Apologies for former Anne Arundel executive Leopold’s misconduct are good. Laws preventing a repeat would be better.

This week, Councilwoman Lisa Rodvien introduced a resolution before the Anne Arundel County Council “apologizing for civil rights violations that occurred under the administration of a former Anne Arundel County executive.” The resolution read in part, “whereas, the former county executive ordered his executive detail and other county employees to create dossiers on those he perceived as political rivals, as well as women who complained that he harassed or discriminated against them, in the years leading up to 2012″.
