TOM WEST SEEMS TO POINT HIS FINGER AT ONLY ME, WHEN HE SHOULD BE POINTING THE FINGER OF THE REAL culprits. Shouldn't he? Who is at fault for creating an UNCONSTITUTIONAL SIGN AND BENCH ORDINANCE, IS WHOEVER WAS THE CITY ATTORNEY IN 1974, AND ALL THE OTHER ATTORNEYS SINCE THEN. IT IS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY ARE ADVISING THE COUNCIL AND MAYOR ON THE LAWS, INCLUDING THE STATE AND FEDERAL CONSTITUTION. Right???? The blood is on all their hands and that's who Tom West should be pointing his oversized bigoted finger at. Another thing, why hasn't Tom West demonized local attorney Brook Mallak for suing this city for the police performing illegal data lookups???¿¿¿¿
Why hasn't the Morrison County Record demonized Mary Doucette, (the former assistant jail administrator for Morrison County sheriffs department for approximately 20 years) for suing the county for age and sex discrimation???¿¿¿ In reading the memorandum opinion Michael Monnier ( a correctional officer) was promoted to lieutenant, even though Doucette applied for the position. [ I wonder if Michael Monnier is Rhonda Monniers husband. Rhonda is one of the Little Falls Police departments civilian dispatchers with ZERO CUSTOMER RELATIONS skills, and a crabby faced attitude] County Administrator Deb Gruber seems to have overstepped her professional boundaries(if not flat out violated the law) by continuing the inquiry into Doucettes medical records at Doucettes clinic without Sheriff Wetzels or Lieutenant Monniers direction.
Here is one interesting paragraph from the memorandum:
To establish a discriminatory motive, Doucette alleges Wetzel and Monnier fostered an "old boys" club, which favored male employees. For example, Wetzel held weekly administrative meetings for the sheriffs department , which Monnier attended for the jail division of the department, and three administrators attended for other department functions. In addition, Monnier held "team leader" meetings in the jail side of the department. Doucette argues her exclusion from both of these meetings was discriminatory and undermined her authority. She further argues some male employees socialized with Monnier in his office, further cementing their favorable treatment. The effect of the "old boys" club, Doucette argues, is demonstrated by Wetzels choice to promote Monnier instead of her, and that another female employee, Anne Roach, was similarily passed over for promotions.
It is no surprise that since the case was remanded by U.S. District Judge Ann D. Montgomery back to Morrison County Court that part of Doucettes case was denied by the local judge.
NOTICE GRUBER RECIEVED KUDOS FROM THE COMMISSIONERS !!! I am not convinced she was worthy of their praise. Deb Gruber has a long way to go to garner my respect.
Saved the county money? Maybe if they'd upend the crony, good old boy systems they'd stop getting sued.
