Mecklenburg County Sheriff Garry McFadden issued an apology Thursday for "racially charged" language he used in a video amid a controversy that saw his chief deputy resign over allegations of a toxic work environment and unprofessionalism.
"It doesn't matter who recorded it or how many years ago it was or if it was recorded today," McFadden said. "I want to apologize for that language. Held to a higher standard, that's the office of the sheriff. But you must understand that I am human and I'm not perfect and I will make mistakes."
McFadden's comments come after former Chief Deputy Kevin Canty resigned from the Mecklenburg County Sheriff's Office. In an interview with WCNC Charlotte, Canty accused McFadden of fostering a hostile work environment. During the interview, Canty said McFadden conducted himself like a "third-world dictator" who was running the sheriff's office into the ground by demoralizing staff members.
Canty told WCNC Charlotte's Austin Walker that he heard McFadden use derogatory words to describe white deputies and said Black employees had a "plantation mentality." WCNC Charlotte obtained audio of one of the meetings where McFadden was present. He's quoted as calling one white deputy a racially pejorative term.
