Quinn Leaves Office August 31st

An Addison County Prosecutor is stepping down.



John Quinn has been state's attorney for more than 30 years and WCAX TV reports that he and 299 other employees will opt for early retirement. The state has offered the incentive to help cut costs. Quinn leaves office on August 31st and the governor will appoint a successor to cover the rest of Quinn's term. Quinn isn't the first county prosecutor to take early retirement; Rutland County prosecutor James Mongeon will also retire early, which he made official last week.
