A Charlotte (NC) deputy chief who posted an image to his private Facebook account that stirred up some controversy retired Friday, according to news accounts.
The Charlotte Observer (http://bit.ly/1zSRQsB) reports that Jeff Dulin, a 32-year department veteran, shared an image on his Facebook page that City Manager Ron Carlee found “highly offensive.” The image reportedly shows former Olympian Bruce Jenner’s in his earlier days alongside a photo of Jenner, who is believed to be transitioning to a woman, as he is today.
