A South Florida town manager who married a porn star last year was fired at an emergency meeting after the mayor and council members learned about it.

Fort Myers Beach town council voted 5-0 to fire Scott Janke “without cause” after Mayor Larry Kiker called the Tuesday night meeting.

Kiker told the News-Press of Fort Myers he learned that afternoon that Janke’s wife is an adult film star, and the elected officials took the action a few hours later.

We did everything we could not to judge,” Kiker told the paper. “It’s not about him and her. It’s about the town…”

Kiker acknowledged that Janke had violated no rules or laws and added that he had done a good job for the island town….

Councilman Tom Babcock, responding to residents’ questions, said at a council meeting Wednesday that Janke was fired because his wife’s profession brought an inaccurate image to Fort Myers Beach, according to the News-Press.

Just what we need, government based on what-will-the-neighbors-think.

Thanks, K B

    I bet it also has the highest rate of closeted, middle-aged men.

    Hmm. I think you misheard — he’s hoping to get the WIFE into a broom closet. Understandable mistake.

    Unfortunately, these little pockets of Christian Taliban exists through out the country. They just make the news more often in places like Florida.
