Cleveland police Chief Wes Snyder and MainStreet Cleveland Executive Director Sharon Marr each publicly apologized and acknowledged wrongdoing before the Cleveland City Council on Monday. Video shows that they repeatedly spent some 90 minutes together in a storage facility unit with blankets and a bottle of brandy.CLEVELAND, Tenn. — Rhodes Climate Controlled Storage, where Cleveland police Chief Wes Snyder and MainStreet Cleveland head Sharon Marr secretly rendezvoused in a climate-controlled unit, has denounced the couple’s activity on its premises.
“It is against our policy here at Rhodes Storage for a tenant to physically occupy their unit,” said Jimmy Rhodes, owner of the facility on Old Tasso Road NE, in a statement. “Our units are for the purpose of storing commercial and household items only.”
When facility personnel found evidence that Marr and Snyder were occupying a storage unit during business hours, the business contacted authorities and cooperated with a police investigation, Rhodes said.
“We have a zero tolerance policy for this type of behavior in our facilities and strongly feel that appropriate action was taken,” he said in the statement. “It is our number one priority to provide safe, clean, secured storage for our valued customers.”
Facility surveillance tapes turned over to the Cleveland Police Department documented multiple visits to a unit by Snyder and Marr in late November and early December. A Dec. 4 police report noted that pillows, blankets and half a bottle of brandy were found inside.
