Ramapo Building Inspector Suspended Following Drug Charges
Rampo - The town's building inspector was suspended following accusations that he had marijuana in his town-owned car when he was involved in an accident on the New York state Thruway.
Brian Brophy, 56, has been out on disability since he was involved in the three-car accident, town officials said.
But now "He's been suspended with pay," said Town Supervisor Christopher St. Lawrence, "We're awaiting the outcome of the investigation from the accident.
State Troopers said that at the accident scene Brophy complained of neck and back injuries and was taken to Good Samaritan Hospital by the Nanuet Ambulance Corps.
At that time a NY State Trooper was conducting the accident investigation when he went into Brophy's vehicle looking for registration and insurance information, and inside he found 3 grams of marijuana and in a white envelope in the glove compartment containing 64 $100 bills.
"Maybe he was going to pay his mortgage," they said.
Brophy was charged with possession of marijuana.
Brophy has been a town employee for nearly 25 years and made $135,000 last year.
