What's this world coming to?
Being laid off in Florida isn't surprising news these days, but what happened to poor Scott Janke doesn't seem quite right.
Janke, who was the esteemed town manager of Fort Myers Beach, was fired Tuesday because of his wife's job -- or rather the kinds of jobs she did on film.
Janke's wife, Anabela Mota Janke, is a porn star better known by the name of Jazella Moore. If you're familiar with her work, then you can see the problem at hand. The couple has been married for about a year, but an adult industry website outed Moore as Janke's undercover porn wife.
And then the firestorm of debates on political correctness and public decency ensued.
Commissioners voted unanimously to fire Janke, who by all accounts -- even those of the commission -- had done a stand up job running the town.
"It's our job to keep things on course and focused," Mayor Larry Kiker told NBC2.com. ''If you look at it, the man didn't do anything illegal but it's obvious what the issue is.''
Kiker said the city has been bombarded by media and television interview requests, which is not in keeping with the conservative, small town image Fort Myers wants. You can't just have porn stars running around willy nilly and taking photo ops with politicians, the commission feels. Kiker also said he knows Mrs. Janke well and she seemed like "a very genuine, very nice person."
