Mr. Horgan, I was shocked and alarmed to see an article in the paper this morning regarding your possession of marijuana. I grew up in Fayette County and take great pride in calling Fayetteville home, as my parents still do.

You have brought disgrace to your office and cast a shadow over the county for your miscalculated and irresponsible actions.

You have joined the school board in humiliating your constituency and not representing the high standards Fayette County sets for itself.

First, you need to apologize for your actions. Second, you need to resign your position effective immediately and do everything you can to restore credibility to your post.

I trust you will do the right thing and not let this issue linger. Fayette County deserves better.
