The executive director of the Arizona Criminal Justice Commission announced his resignation after intense scrutiny from Republican lawmakers during the commission’s sunset review.
Andrew LeFevre announced his plan to resign at a Feb. 17 meeting of the ACJC’s Executive Committee after it met in executive session to discuss “personnel matters related to the executive director.”
LeFevre and the ACJC have been on the defensive this session after Republican Reps. Alex Kolodin and Quang Nguyen leveled accusations that the commission has been attempting to expand its data collection duties in order to spy on Arizonans. ACJC is currently up for its regularly scheduled sunset review.
