The five-member hiring authority overseeing the selection of Madisonâs next police chief heard public comment on the top four candidates for a second time Monday with plans to meet again on Wednesday and Friday. Some of the more than two dozen members of the public speaking at the Police and Fire Commissionâs meeting Monday supported delaying a decision on a final candidate â Shon Barnes, Ramon Batista, Christopher Davis or Larry Scirotto â until the newly created Police Civilian Oversight Board makes a recommendation. âWe feel that it is only appropriate that we are given time to deliberate among ourselves and the community to construct a formal recommendation,â said Ananda Deacon, a member of the oversight board.
