MORROW COUNTY â Five Morrow County Sheriffâs Office employees have resigned in the past 30 days, according to officials at the sheriffâs office.
Four of the employees who resigned were deputies and one was a sergeant, Morrow County Sheriff Kenneth Matlack said.
Matlack said there were several reasons why the employees left the sheriffâs office. One employee was moving to a new home with his wife in Redmond, and another moved to Portland, where his daughter has access to better, more consistent medical care at a local hospital, the sheriff said.
Three of the employees, however, resigned to seek opportunities elsewhere after they were not promoted during a series of shifts at the sheriffâs office that came after a longtime operations lieutenant resigned.
