An accidental recording of a racially charged conversation between Monroe City School Board member Vickie Krutzer and a male named "Bill" resulted in Krutzer's removal as chairman of the School Board's finance committee.

School Board President Verbon Muhammad unilaterally stripped Krutzer of the chairmanship at a School Board meeting Tuesday night. The move was one of several actions taken in response to the phone recording, which was accidentally left on the voicemail of a school system employee.
