Issues with budgets and tickets? I wonder if he was just turning into a speed trap ticketing machine like several other small towns I’m aware of. If so, disbanding the force is the easiest way to fix the problem.

I’d think that if he was actually a “speed trap ticketing machine”, the revenue from the fines would work in his favor, budget-wise.
