Prince George’s liquor board chairman agrees to resign after DUI arrest
WASHINGTON — Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan has asked Charles Caldwell, the head of the Prince George’s County liquor license commission, to resign his position following his arrest for drunken driving last week, a spokeswoman for the governor told WTOP.
Caldwell agreed to step down from his role as chairman of the Board of License Commissioners, Hogan spokesman Shareese DeLeaver-Churchill told WTOP in an email Tuesday evening.
The spokeswoman said Hogan did not have the authority to remove Caldwell from the board.
“However, the governor is very concerned and disappointed in this situation and has asked Mr. Caldwell to step down from his role as chairman, which he has agreed to do,” DeLeaver-Churchill said in the statement. “Ultimately, there is a legal process that will play out in the near term and our office will be monitoring that process very closely.”
Caldwell was arrested Dec. 8 at about 11:40 p.m. after a minor traffic accident
near the MGM National Harbor on the casino’s opening night and charged with driving under the influence.
Yes, he too joined the nogs in the shit show called opening night at MGM Grand.
