The Dukes of Texas

An embarrassed Sheriff Gary Painter fired one Midland County deputy and suspended three others without pay after a scantily dressed waitress holding a rifle posed for photographs on the hood of a patrol vehicle. The incident occurred last week in the parking lot of a Twin Peaks restaurant, which promotes its "fun, friendly and sometimes flirty atmosphere!"
The deputies told Painter that they had about three to five beers each.
A fifth deputy who remained inside the eatery got a letter of reprimand. This sounds like a scene out of the Dukes of Hazzard where Daisy distracts the officers while the Duke boys break for it in the General Lee. Love that the place is called Twin Peaks...I'll say.
