Lawman in Sniper Hunt Quits After Book Clash
From Times Wire Reports
Montgomery County Police Chief Charles A. Moose, who led the three-week hunt for the Washington-area snipers, resigned after a clash with county politicians over his upcoming book on the investigation.
Moose’s book, “Three Weeks in October,” is set for release in October, one year after the attacks. In March, the county ethics panel ordered him to drop the project and barred him from serving as a consultant on a film about the case.
