Former Broward State's Attorney Philip S. Shailer was invited this afternoon to be the fourth member of a five-person committee that will select an independent Inspector General, an office created by Broward voters in November.
Current members Timothy Donnelly, Sam Goren, Jan Jacobowitz and Shailer will select a fifth and final member at the next meeting and together must select an IG by March 12th. Next meeting is Tuesday the 15th at 3 pm in Room 422, the Broward Commission Chambers.
Personally, I would like to see at least one non-lawyer on the selection committee.
At the end of the meeting around 5 p.m., there were four people in the audience: Broward activist/gadfly Russell Setti, an attorney from Goren's firm, a reporter and... me.
It was an underwhelming start to say the least for Broward's new anti-corruption era, but a baby step is still better than the woeful status quo.
More on this tomorrow, hopefully with photos and video.

Beautiful Stockholm at night, looking west from the Baltic Sea towards Gamla Stan, with the iconic City Hall in the distance, on left, with the three golden crowns on top, which are the national emblem of Sweden. In my previous life, I was definitely born and raised there.
A reminder of why I and all of my savvy, sensible friends -like @UdenCatherine- push back hard vs. the serial nonsensical public policy + misanthropy emanating from #HollywoodFL City Hall the past few years, both the elected Mayor and City Commission, as well as the city's often imperious, feckless, thin-skinned highly-paid bureaucrats. THIS! ☀️🌴🏖️😎. Photo: March 2025, Hollywood Beach, Florida.
