In a surprise move, Lethbridge Police Commission chair Simon Griffiths has resigned from all his duties on the commission. “I have committed half a decade to serving on the Lethbridge Police Commission and I have thoroughly enjoyed my time,” Griffiths said in a statement released to the media on Tuesday. “I have had the opportunity to meet many of the dedicated LPS members and staff who come to work each day and perform their jobs to the highest professional and ethical standards.
