Crowd Gathers At Edgewood
Meeting To Discuss Police Matters
By Britne Reeves
Staff Writer
EDGEWOOD—The
Edgewood City Coun-
cil met in a regularly
scheduled meeting on
Aug. 26 to discuss the
recent events sur-
rounding the police de-
partment, among other
city matters.
Mayor Charlie
Prater opened up the
meeting announcing
that the discussion and
public hearing con-
cerning an officer that
had previously been
fired would not com-
mence as that matter
was in litigation.
Edgewood City
Hall’s council room
did not have an empty
seat as citizens from
the area came to ad-
dress one hot topic is-
sue that was prevalent
among the consensus;
the recent firing of of-
ficer Richard McCoy.
Some residents,
however, had a differ-
ent idea about what
was going to be dis-
cussed, even if the
council would not
move on that particu-
lar topic.
Disgruntled local
business owner
Monica Roy, owner of
The Lumberyard,
spoke at Tuesday
night’s meeting voic-
ing concerns regarding
the safety and welfare
of Edgewood if chief
Henry Askew re-
mained the chief of po-
lice.
“I feel as if
Edgewood is becoming
a lawless community, I
feel as if the job is not
getting done like it
should be. I own a busi-
ness, and I feel as if
business owners have
been overlooked on
matters of safety. I am
begging that the police
officers and council
members pay attention
to events and situa-
tions that are happen-
ing in and around town
and that something be
done to ensure our
safety,” she told the
council. “He (Chief
Askew) is disrespectful
to business owners and
rude to customers. In
the recent past, there
have been five robber-
ies in our
community ...That is
pathetic. I feel as if the
only good police of-
ficer that we had was
fired by Chief Askew
for no apparent reason.”
There have been a
number of complaints
against the chief, most
of which were verbal,
Askew said.
A lack of formal
written complaints are
evident, but most citi-
zens feel like a retali-
ation would occur if a
formal written com-
plaint was submitted,
Roy said. However,
there were citizens
present who wished to
praise Chief Askew for
his service to
Edgewood.
Becky Dillard, a
resident of Edgewood
for 22 years, spoke af-
ter Roy and voiced her
appreciation for what
Askew does for the
city.
“I believe that Chief
Askew is doing the
best that he can with
the resources he has.
There is only Chief
Askew and one full
deputy patrol per 24
hours. They have to
cover all of Edgewood.
How much can they re-
alistically cover? They
can’t be everywhere
and that is what people
need to realize. I think
he has done a fantastic
job and bent over
backwards for this city
and its citizens,”
Dillard said.
Catherine Pointer
Andrew, 43, noted that
Chief Askew has gone
above and beyond the
line of service to per-
sonally help her fam-
ily in a time of crisis.
“He saved my family
from someone who
wished to hurt us. He
chased down someone
and then cornered him
and took him down all
alone. If that is not po-
lice duty, I do not know
what is. He protected
and served us. That is
his job, and he did it,”
she said.
OTHER COUNCIL
NEWS
—Edgewood City
Council accepted the
resignation of Pam
Allen, the secretary

—The council dis-
cussed the streetlight
audit between Encore
Energy and TXU Elec-
tric Company. The au-
dit will verify new rates

overlapping coverage

citizens and calculate a
breakout lump sum for
