Black sergeant was 'loyal Klansman'

He also was one of several applicants for a vacant City Council seat in Layton. Stallworth didn't get the seat but says he plans to run for City Council.

He coaches a youth track team for 9-to-14-year-old boys and girls, and would like to volunteer for the Huntsman Cancer Center, which cared for his wife, Micki, before her death.

Stallworth is also going back to school. He wants to complete a bachelor's degree in criminal justice administration at Columbia College.

Medina said she wouldn't be surprised if Stallworth continues to speak up on issues close to him.

"Now that he's retired, watch out," Medina said. "He is very committed to all these communities. He is also very committed to the career he chose as a law-enforcement officer. . . . People need to take the time to really listen to him."
