The package also includes a puzzling ban on any district investigations of his tenure

They boosted his salary some months in advance so they could make his severance bigger. These people are 100% trying to get themselves payouts.

Board could just not pay and see what happens.

Oh hey it's my district.

Abe was a real piece of shit and anyone involved in the district knows it.

The principal at one of our middle schools resigned unexpectedly and it looks like it was because Abe was fucking his wife. Who also happens to be the head of special education for the district. Fun guy! Very Trumpy.

When the board announced his severance package the front row at the meeting was all pissed off local lwayers. There was supposed to be a public comment period but the board cut it off so they ceded all their time to one lawyer who read a statement essentially saying "this is illegal and you are super fucked"
