Former Kanawha Deputy Resigning As Monroe County Sheriff

By Giuseppe Sabella The Monroe County sheriff announced on Wednesday that he would soon resign, citing the need to support his family with a new opportunity. Sheriff Sean Crosier said in a news release that he would step down in early September. He did not say who would replace him. "This has been one of the most difficult decisions I have ever made for many reasons, however my family obligations have taken a 180-degree turn," he said in the release. His wife's retirement will come later than expected, the release states, so Crosier will adapt to a new role. Though his new employer is not listed, the release said Crosier plans to work with the U.S.
