The Ingram City Council appointed two women with law enforcement experience to two top positions even as rumors of anti-police-department bias helped spur a flurry of peace officer resignations at the city. Kathy Rider, a former Ingram police officer, was appointed to the mayorship by a 4-0 vote. Carol Twiss, a recently retired sheriff’s office captain and former candidate for sheriff, was appointed as police chief by a vote of three in favor and one abstention by Councilmember John St. Clair. Twiss, addressing the audience in the council chambers on Thursday, said she is honored to have been chosen and will ensure the city has adequate law enforcement coverage with the assistance of the sheriff s office and a constable s office until new officers are secured for all positions.
