Jonathan Owens Wants County Taxpayers to Fund His Legal Defense in a SECOND Matter He is Facing....



Former county employee Jonathan Owens, who worked for disgraced former commissioner Doug Underhill as his office secretary, has now sent the county a second request for taxpayer funded legal defense for a second matter he is apparently defending.  

He (Owens) sent this latest request in an email to Administrator Wes Moreno and County Attorney Alison Rogers yesterday evening at 6:30.

In the email he sent he describes this latest issue as some kind of new complaint that he is defending, and he references recent communication(s) with an "investigator" over this issue which he believes necessitates another taxpayer funded legal defense.

As I said in an earlier post when Jonathan Owens requested the taxpayers foot the bill for legal problems he has brought upon himself by unlawfully possessing personal identification information on five or more persons to which he is not entitled------------why should he be entitled to this?

I mean, when he proudly admitted reading, keeping, and disseminating personal identification information unredacted on five or more persons on Tallman McKay's Radio Show in August and also in the PNJ---he said he didn't need "no stinkin' lawyer" then!

Why does he think he's entitled to one now?

I don't think he'll get three votes for this, I don't think the taxpayers should fund his activities that appear to be criminal and NOT at all related to his former job as Doug's secretary.

Didn’t you file the SECOND ethics case against him? You will be 0-2 after this is all said and done. Good grief man, lie by omission much

He is delusional if he thinks he is fooling anyone. He twists facts to hide his guilt.
