Le Roy councilman resigns

Le Roy City Councilman Bryson Meats resigned abruptly at the most recent city meeting after the reading of a citizen complaint and a court-issued protection order.

LE ROY — Last week’s Le Roy City Council meeting saw the sudden resignation of council member Bryson Meats after the reading of a citizen complaint and a court-issued protection order, according to the Coffey County Republican.

Mayor Steve Cox read the formal complaint submitted against Meats. Documentation included a petition for protection from stalking and sexual assault, filed March 25, and granted earlier that day by the court for a two-year period.

“The complaint reads that Bryson Meats is sexually harassing members of the community and his character is unfit for city leadership,” Cox said. The Republican’s article reported Cox and City Attorney Daniel Smith had spoken with the complainant, and that Meats did not appear at the court hearing earlier that day.
