Cook and Rhodes clash over demotion in Ohio
Former highway safety director Donald D. Cook plans to go to Gov Rhodes with a letter announcing his fight against demotion. Rhodes reassigned Cook to supervise the crime prevention office and renamed Curtis Andrews deputy director of transportation. Cook says he welcomes an investigation to clear the record and questions why Rhodes chose advisers over direct talks. Andrews had previously shut down a 24 hour crime data system, which was restored Friday night after the dispute emerged.
