Education criticism trails Montebello chief
It seems that new Montebello Police Chief Dan Weast just can't get away from criticism about his highest educational degree: a GED.
In a short profile Reporter Amanda Baumfeld wrote up in today's paper, Montebello Mayor Bill Molinari questioned whether Weast could do the best job for the community.
Weast had this to say:
He says he believes in higher education and will see that requirements within the department are raised in the future.
"I will be getting us closer to reaching industry standards," Weast said. "We need to keep up with the times."
