(Rock Island, IL) -- Rock Island High School has a new leader after a controversial vote last night.
Tracy Pugh was the deciding board vote to install his wife, Yolanda Grandberry-Pugh, as Rocky's new dean.
Illinois law doesn't allow the spouse of a person serving on a state-created entity to benefit financially from that entity.
Pugh is defending his vote saying his wife is taking a salary cut to accept the position.
