The Kootenai County Board of Commissioners have issued a press release, announcing plans for a comprehensive study of the "public defender delivery system." The odd part? The release says that fired Public Defender John Adams is eligible for reappointment. Here's the nut graph:

The Board recognizes that the current public defender, John Adams, has provided this service for in excess of 16 years and has served his clients well. The term of office for a public defender has a minimum of two years. Mr. Adams continues to serve as Kootenai County public defender and is eligible to be reappointed for another term. Full press release here.

Question: Can anyone read between these lines?
