Board of Inquiry, Tyler Peabody and Dr. Chris Richardson

Board of Inquiry, Tyler Peabody and Dr. Chris Richardson

The AWMA Board of Inquiry (BOI) Committee held a call on Monday, March 24, 2025, to discuss recommendations for disciplinary action regarding the matter of AWMA Secretary Jessica Johnson vs. Tyler Peabody and Chris Richardson. This discussion followed the committee’s prior finding that the BOI was relevant, and the charges sustained.

However, due to the resignations of both Tyler Peabody and Chris Richardson from the Board of Inquiry, the committee is unable to recommend the disciplinary action outlined in AWMA Bylaws, ARTICLE X: COMMITTEES, SECTION 1. STANDING COMMITTEES, c. Board of Inquiry: (vi) If charges are sustained against any member of the Board of Inquiry, the recommendation for discipline shall include this member’s removal from the Board of Inquiry for the duration of his/her term.

As both individuals have voluntarily stepped down, this specific disciplinary measure is no longer applicable.

Therefore, it is the recommendation of the BOI Committee to the AWMA Executive Board that no further disciplinary action be taken at this time.
