According to a letter obtained by wbtv marty pucket a charlotte firefighter was warned in december about his role as an intern with the city councilwoman Claire Fallon. We are hearing heated reaction. Wbtvs steve crump has been following the story and is live with what they have to say. Paul this has moved from infighting within the Fire Department to infighting with the ranks of the Charlotte City asituation happened last year when crystal herbar was released from her job. And now there is a war of words. Claire fallon is sticking by her guns. It started the first day i got on council. All right . I dont know why. I dont know what the problem is. However, the controversy over her former intern marty pucket is not going away yet. Pucket is shown on football as a firefighter and vicepresident of the charlotte firefighters association. He has been embroiled in controversy since december of last year when a memo from the City Attorney said neither the mayor nor the council or any member thereof shall direct the conductor activities of any employee. I needed someone i could trust, all right . There is nobody there i could trust. Pucket sent an email to the asking that chief john hannon be removed and it was met with a memo saying pucket is violating city policy and his job could be in trouble. We do not build personal relationships with staff. Councilwoman mayfield believes pucket had become too cozy with fallon and ron carlee. Carlee announced he was stepping down there were texts between the two. One communication from pucket to carlee reportedly came in closed session during february 24th when he resigned and it reads. Take the deal. All of your other problems will conform. Minimal backlash. Trust for for once. How do you chenser someone who is toxic . You are toxic to council and the city of charlotte. Mayfield is vicechairman of the committee and fallons actions need to be put under the microscope and fallon is up for the fight. Intimidate me which is what they usually try to do. And we found out late today that mayfield is asking the City Attorney as well as the manager if Claire Fallon can be censored by membered the city council. Very heated emotions in this one and we will keep you posted. Live at the government center, Steve Crump Wbtv on your side. Thank you.
