Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke resigned Thursday, TODAY'S TMJ4 has learned.

Milwaukee County Clerk George L. Christenson confirmed the news Thursday afternoon. His letter of resignation was received at 3:17 p.m

There's no word yet on why the sheriff chose today to tender his resignation or what his next moves may be.

In June, the sheriff withdrew his name from consideration for an Assistant Secretary Position at the Department of Homeland Security after speculation he would fill that role.

The sheriff was in Nashville at the time of his resignation and could not immediately be reached for comment.

Clarke rose to prominence as a national media figure during his tenure as sheriff of Milwaukee County, increasingly appearing on cable news outlets like FOX News to talk about police issues.

His tenure was not without controversy. In a span of six months in 2016, three people in custody died at the Milwaukee County Jail — as well as a newborn baby.

Clarke first won election to the position in 2002. He defended his post in elections in 2006, 2010, and 2014.

He's already into politics. He subs in for Rush Limbaugh's radio show when Limbaugh is out.

That forced a woman to give birth in shackles

That ignored a woman in labor, contributing to the death of her newborn.

At the very minimum, Clarke is a hugely incompetent governmental official. Given your ideology, and your stated views on government, you should despise him.

A sheriff is culpable for everything that goes on in a jail in his county

Nah not really.
