Portsmouth police chief will stay, just a little bit longer
By News in Brief
Published: September 1, 2008
PORTSMOUTH—Interim Portsmouth Police Chief William Corvello has agreed to stay on the job several more months, reversing a decision to step down at the start of September.
Corvello agreed last week to extend his time until at least January.
He had said that a key reason he’s resigning is that the department has had to compete with the city sheriff’s office for law-enforcement funding. After a closed session Monday with city officials, Corvello didn’t say whether they’d addressed his concerns.
Corvello is a retired Virginia State Police superintendent and previously served as interim chief in Newport News.
