Memphis Mayor A C Wharton may have been joking about cleaning up City Hall with a broom, but on his first day in office he's already landed his first clean-up job.
As reported by CA writer Hank Dudding, Shelby County Sheriff's Deputies raided the Memphis Animal Shelter this morning, discovering that some of the animals were diseased or required food and water.
Wharton, who was sworn into office only yesterday, made himself available for comment, saying this provided a "dirty slate" from which things will improve.
Looks like the honeymoon period could be short-lived for Wharton, the former two-term county mayor. Any guesses on how many crises Wharton will face in his first weeks on the job?
