This piece of trash op-ed that will appear in tomorrow's edition of the PNJ is probably one of their worst yet. Of all time. Tomorrow's garbage editorial is nothing but a haphazard, fact-barren ad hominem personal attack on four of the five elected Escambia County Commissioners. And disgustingly, the most important, factual information is ignored in favor of a salacious attack on four of us. The piece, most disturbingly, is built entirely on lies, rumors, insinuations and assumptions.
But it's foundations are lies.
PNJ Lie # 1.) Janice Gilley was fired over the discussions of the 401(a) plan. Not true, not even close. (Hint for PNJ propaganda squad: What did the ECAT union vote the week before the firing request? Think. You even covered it! Nope, no mention of that... What about the almost $200,000.00 settlement that happened the same week--the second one based on harrassment in public safety? nope, no mention of that even though your paper covered it. What about the fact that the only other area printed newspaper publisher has openly called for Janice's termination for months now?)
PNJ Lie #2.) An insinuation that the board and members of the board violated the Florida Sunshine law and "orchestrated" the firing for months. This is a straight-up, bald faced lie and a fabrication. If they think we did it, have the guts to take your proof to the SAO and push for us to be prosecuted! You are liars, PNJ editorial team, straight up. And this insinuation is a lie. Shame on you both, Andy Marlette and Lisa Nellesen Savage. You have no integrity.
PNJ Lie #3.) That I purposely gave a "milquetoast" explanation of my rationale for firing Janice. NOT TRUE! roll back the tape and re-watch. I said I didn't want to publicly discuss it. "I like to praise in public, punish in private!" That's what I said. And when you try to sell the fiction that the other board members "couldn't muster specific reasons or a public explanation for their vote." That, too, is a straight up lie and you know it. Each of us with the exception of Doug intimated that we did not and would not make a public spectacle of a tough circumstance and would not "air dirty laundry"---out of consideration for Janice. For you to accuse us of purposely being deceptive is a LIE. Watch the actual meetings and what we said--instead of peddling lies and mischaracterizations.
To the PNJ "Editorial Board" that wrote this garbage: The bottom line is this board has the authority to do what we did. She works for us under a contract, we hired her. Sometimes entities and leaders part ways--you know that. CEO's and companies, Baseball teams and star pitchers, AND yes--counties and their administrators. It's not personal for any of us so far as I can tell; certainly isn't for me. It's business. But it is disgustingly bizarre for you to use Janice Gilley as your straw man man here to attack us with lies and mischaracterizations. You don't care about the truth, and you sure as hell don't care about Janice Gilley--obviously. You are simply using her and this uncomfortable situation to aid in yet another attack on those of us who lead, regardless of what this is doing to her and her family. I harbor no ill-will toward Janice, I think she is and was a great person. Don't use her termination as fodder to attack, that's reprehensible. Here is a novel concept PNJ: Go back and do some basic reading on honor, truth, and journalistic integrity. You have HUGE deficits in each of these areas and we all see it.

The same applies to ECW. Speculation, assumptions, and lies run rampant. Salacious headlines get attention and facts are ignored. Escambia County has the dumbest people per capita in Florida. Simpletons follow along because they don’t know anything else.
"we all see it"
No, unfortunately most don't.
This looks like ECW team propaganda that writes on the editorial board, I don't think it's those two mentioned.
You said Hell--ur post should be removed
"I like to praise in public, punish in private!" This also a lie. Just go back through these blogs.
This quote below is from a Florida relocation guide. NW Florida isn’t exactly known for intelligent life form here. And it’s definitely not known for independent thinkers. If granny Betty believes in something, the whole family does too. Even if granny Betty says the sky is purple, the rest of her kin will fight you to death if you dare believe it’s really blue. That’s why PNJ can say whatever they want, and the town falls for it hook line and sinker. Welcome to Pensacola.
“Florida in general has “nice” people. But generally speaking, the people in the panhandle are not noted for their intellect and are decidedly ignorant, right-wing, followers. I drive past as quickly as possible, and advise you to do the same.”
We know you have a job to do and are doing it.
What is the point of this editorial, more clicks and it is the usual type thing that comes from Dougites.
Enjoy your weekend.
Hilarious people post Marlette cartoons, like they think he understands politics and especially local government.
PNJ? consider the source.
"Alex Arduini
His alterations to this original artwork are absolute garbage. 🤡🤡🤡 He tried so hard though...."
I agree with this wholeheartedly. A good example are the comments on Escambia County Citizens Watch group under the post about the county check registry. The stupid comments will make your head hurt. People don’t understand what it takes to run a county, so when they saw charges for things like gasoline they automatically thought Commisioners were filling up their own cars. They were sharpening their pitch forks to go demand they give back that gas money. Yes, Escambia county is low on intelligence, making them easy to manipulate.
This is also why the poverty level in Escambia county is so high. Ignorance breeds poverty.

Who cares what a nobody says that lives off his mommy and wife because he spends his life on fakebook. Thats a fact not a personal attack. No one cares what he says. All he can do is stalk and insult Commisioners. He’s never posted an original thought or has any solutions. Quit giving the wackadoos attention.
No slits in skirts but calling a commissioner's wife Bowl cut Betty is fine.
Trying a win a mostly Republican district with total disdain for Republicans.
Go over to Melissa Pino page and read a week's worth and come back with ur conclusions
I had really hoped not to have to speak to Ms. Gilley's tenure at the County any more. But with the BOCC having done the right thing on not publicly addressing all of the inadequacies and problems per her tenure, Lisa Nellessen Savage and Andy Marlette are going to continue to churn out garbage for their Downtown backers.
I'd like to know where this editorial board was when Ms. Gilley was firing veteran bus drivers for coming down with covid or attending their daughters' funerals. This would be laughable, if they weren't so heinous in their blatant politicking and political lies. My comment on the PNJ website:
------------------------
It would have been really nice for local media sources to handle Ms. Gilley's termination with the class that she did, but I'm not sure why anyone who lives in the unincorporated areas would continue to be surprised by Downtown power brokers continuing to try to blow the County up to solidify power in the City. It couldn't be any more ham fisted. Which is it, PNJ--did the commissioner terminate as a knee jerk reaction to the retirement benefits, or was it something that they had been trying to get their courage up for months to do? That's the trouble with dishonest dealings. The cognitive dissonance has you folks so ripped up you can't even keep a through line in a single article. As someone who advocated--publicly, and over the course of a year and a half--that the Board take firmer control over the chaos at the County under Ms. Gilley's watch, I naively thought that if she did get terminated, we could all move on--those of us who care about the County--and start rebuilding what came unglued during her tenure. I would prefer not to have to post on this any longer, but the malignant opportunism the PNJ is running with requires an answer.
Here are just some of the issues I spoke on publicly with documented evidence per Ms. Gilley's operations: "friends and family" procurements (some of them perhaps technically illegal, particularly during the debris removal); contributing to the cover-up of systemic sexual harassment in Public Safety, including male supervisors coercing female subordinates into sexual relations; systematically firing senior staff who were about to reach retirement on the slimmest of excuses; refusing to properly fulfill public record; unequal application of code violations; her professed ignorance of any knowledge of problems brought before the board; her appalling hoaxer handling of covid at the County; unequal treatment of staff who were infected with it; hiring expensive consultants without the Board's prior knowledge; allowing an IT director to introduce onion routers into the County's IT; cherry picking evidence to turn over to FDLE on EMS; refusing to act on documentation I turned over on illegal practices in Fire administration; lying repeatedly about the cause of negotiation difficulties; running fake investigations out of the Ethics and Compliance Office to harass County workers; knowingly and willfully violating a paramedics due process so badly the insurance company forced a settlement, installing a bloated, many-layered bureaucracy so she would always have plausible deniability for her decisions. Any one of these things would have been sufficient. --Melissa Pino
Let’s do a little experiment to show the comments above are true. On ECW someone will post this and they’ll pile on and agree with everything in the article. Not a single person will question the article or disagree with it.
People get into the echo chambers online and fall into that alternate reality. Assumptions, paranoia, misinformation and lies become their reality, not facts.
Any adult that depends on their momma to support his family is the clown.
Looks like ECW had a moderator to post it and that new fake account to comment, I wonder if that fake account is the author of the editorial (conspiracy theory, I know)
Ha Ha 647, I just saw it before I saw your comment..
The nickname Bowl Cut Betty is brilliant. It fits.
Yes commissioner, I think if one issues a public comment calling you, say a "clown" I don't see a big problem with tit for tat.
In the organization with employees it is better not to bring it all out in the open. People think the sunshine law gives them all access all the time.
I’m a Republican and I’m disgusted with the circus of this new form of conservatism.
And yet the 2 of you are here commenting. This blog post has only to do with an editorial and you want to make it about others. Deflection.
Simmer down Joel and take your meds.
Everyone knows Marilyn Huber is one of Wendy’s fake accounts.
Anonymous 7:03 I now predict they’ll pile on in their outrage and someone will post “we the people must do something about this corruption” and someone will say email the governor. But they’re not smart enough to realize the governor can’t do anything because a mob believes lies they’re being told. All the bitching online they do hasn’t served them well and only makes them look stupid.
Looks like Jeff doesn't monitor his blog! Guess Pino is gatekeeper
This is not conservatism on this blog!
So what
How is asking the other poster to quit giving the wackadoo attention considered deflection in your head? Do you know what deflection means?
PNJ has gone down the toilet. This political hit piece is sad. PNJ hasn’t believed in truth or integrity since the 90’s. That’s the truth. Ask any former employee. The happiest day of my life was the day I cleaned out my office and walked out of the downtown building. It’s agenda driven trash.
734...yes wait for it, did they PM Alex yet to get him to post all the email addresses?
They know they are being watched.
What's with the "everybody knows stuff"? Thanks for that info. Yes that makes sense, the new fake account is Wendy. She was trying to whip people up on sunshine law garbage after Doug immediately posted and sent Pam's letter to Jim at the PNJ.
I think the real undercurrects are the Underhills used facebook and thought it a winning strategy to get the mob after other commissioners all day every day, then summoned up people to call and write and go to meetings as a tactic to win votes from the other four commissioners.
He used his knowledge of warfare information propaganda, thinking it would be a winning strategy in public service and being a member of a board.
Finally a few in the community had had enough of his attempts at public humiliation and sued him for those action he continued on ECW facebook, so now he is doing the same thing yet expecting a different outcome.
Wendy wants you to pay for her husband's legal fees so she is disparaging you on facebook again and trying to get people on her side and email, when the decision is between the four elected officials which he has always caused trouble for unnecessarily.
How is that going to work?
What is one definition of insanity? Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.
I know technically this is a PNJ editorial and a Marlette cartoon but that, my friends is what is behind the curtain.
In my opinion.
The Underhill’s are always stirring the pot and lying to cause hate. If you know any of their neighbors you know what I mean,
Anonymous 8:22 Someone will then start the group texts to plan their strategy for the next bocc meeting. They’ll plan who will yell the loudest at the Commisioners and who will take pictures of people’s texts messages when they’re distracted. Underhill will coach them and tell them what to say. Same crap different week.
They’ll get big mad at the next meeting and demand them to stop spending our tax dollars to fill up their gas tanks. LMAO. Is the check registry still up despite them going into hysterics saying it was going to be taken down now that the county knows it was found by the great detectives of ECW? Of course it’s still on the county site where it has been for years.
The chairman can close meeting to all speakers. You can have your open meeting for the BCC.. Turn off Facebook, ignore the PNJ. Pass items or not with no discussion since both words and intent are twisted anyway. Actions speak louder than words.
Bingo
"I’ve lost some confidence based upon the way people are treated,” Bergosh continued, HAHAHAHAHAHAH"
Yeah really funny.
See this comment from ECW on the Janice story from the other day. I guess they think it's OK to have long term paramedics arrested and awaiting a trial that could have a 30 year sentence because they may or may not have missed one of the classes to be able to instruct CPR with a gag order issued to boot and the trial held over for more than a year.
Melissa Pino worked hard to expose these kinds of things at great personal cost and emotional toll.
Some of these must feel smart because they think they are in the smart club and they aren't in the know... at all.
They are ignorant and just because you let one know he is ignorant about another matter, now he hit a like on that comment.
Anon 7:54 I’m talking about the Republican Party as a whole. It’s the autocratic party now.
Yep so what if Wendy wants to hide behind a fake account to do her husband’s dirty bidding to manipulate the stupid.
Anonymous 5:16, I don’t agree with her tactics but I give credit where it’s due and she’s not stupid. She’s one of a handful that understand how a county operates
How did she in this post "dirty bidding to manipulate the stupid?"
Commissioner Bergosh,
Your cartoons are alway very clever. You have legitimate talent.
And I completely agree with you about Ms Savage and Mr Marlette: That duo lost all credibility with me several years ago. That doesn’t change simply because I partially agree with them this time.
I’m ashamed FOR them. They have driven our local News Journal down to its all time nadir
The pitiful state of the Press is likely the greatest danger we face as a country. Savage and Marlette have significantly contributed to our dismal state of affairs.
Regarding the Gilley dismissal: I don’t think that the proceedings could have gone much worse.
The lady is a class act and has served this area for years. She has an impeccable reputation.
Further, from my perspective, Gilley bailed Escambia out at a time when Escambia government was in crisis.
The proceedings, which were orchestrated by the BCC, were UNSEEMLY to say the least.
And the reason (or reasons) for Gilley’s dismissal wasn’t sufficiently explained. I would have appreciated a fair opportunity to hear her side of the story.
In summary: extremely unseemly, yet simultaneously, absolutely ineffective in explaining Madam Administrator’s alleged deficiencies.
By voting 4:1 in-favor of Ms. Gilley’s dismissal, I’m not at all confident that you commissioners made the right decision.
Now, logically, you five brainiacs are on the hot seat.
You broke it, so you own it. If problems continue, it will be a poor reflection on your leadership/management.
I want the best for this county, so I genuinely wish you the best of luck.
But personally, I don’t approve of your performance lately.
For example: Why does it seem that you are in a race to sell all of Pensacola Beach to Julian MacQueen and Innisfree Hotels?
And if you do sell Pensacola Beach to Innisfree, why are you giving him a “bottom basement” price?
1. Earlier this year, you sold MacQueen a previously unleased Casino Beach property located immediately west of the Hampton Inn for $8,500. Then, you re-zoned it to allow for the construction of a new condominium.
2. Last April, you granted Innisfree 67% increased density on their enormous rebuild of their Best Western at 16 Via de Luna. That new hotel will be more than twice as tall as the old building.
3. You are practically eliminating his $326,000 impact fee which Innisfree owed Escambia for granting the increase in density. Your largess seemingly has no bounds - You continue to be extremely generous in your forfeiture of the taxpayers’ money.
Additionally, as you already realize, I am not at all pleased that you, May, and Barry recently, improperly moved a $3.3 million dollar FEMA grant AWAY from Pensacola Beach dune restoration funds where it was intended. Your shortsighted gain will likely cost Escambia in the long-term, in the event that your irresponsible behavior jeopardizes our county’s future FEMA requests.
Finally, you have recently made a habit of picking squabbles against our wonderful Madam Clerk in a misguided attempt to demonstrate to everyone that you are the alpha.
Your behavior has been the opposite of “Cool”.
Get it together, Mr. Commissioner!
Anymous 9:20 AM, I'm curious what you view as my "tactics." I don't mean that in a snarky way--it's an honest question. Because I see a lot of people laying tactics at my feet that I don't actually employ. When you say that you don't agree with them, which ones specifically?
--Melissa Pino
The smart club? More like a cartoon caravan led by Humpty Dumpty
I mean by shouting at the rooftops like you do. Sometimes it’s extreme but I know it’s the only way to get people to listen. It got my attention. I follow what you say and I think you have a better understanding of the county than most who work there.
Can Pino get her own blog to promote her personal conspiracy theories please? I'm sick and tired of her hijacking blog posts for her personal war.
Commisioner Bergosh isn’t the commissioner for the beach. He didn’t sell Julian a thing.
No more renourishment on the beach. It should never be done again. Renourishing dynamic barrier islands is the dumbest thing we can do. FEMA shouldn’t bail out any barrier island properties ever again either. Are you a local or a transplant?
You forgot to add the emojis one of the “we the people must get our pitchforks and torches out” Qreepers always uses ⛈🎯🛡⚔️😵💫
Now they are down to Doug's assistant and his buddy from out of town that helped get him elected the first time to comment on the thread about the editorial in ECW. Must have sent a late night text and asked them to comment.
Slim pickings.
Tom Jardine, the lady is lucky that the BOCC weathered her storm as long as they did, and that they had the grace to terminate her without cause. If she had been a man executing some of the questionable dealings that she did, she probably would have been ousted far before this. Gentlemen down here get wrapped around the axle when it comes to properly overseeing women in executive functions. A plight that the women who report to them recognize full well. If you were looking through the female perspective of a lot of women I know, you would have been on to her program a long time ago. She should have been terminated when some of her dealings during the Sally debris removal came to light. While it's commendable, I guess, that the Board gave her as long as they did to find the straight and narrow path, it went on far too long and her tenure has left a destructive wake a mile wide at the County.
--Melissa Pino
PNJ has always been a mullet wrapper. Not worth reading.
S.B. I see you’ve gotten twisted up in this. You were a cool brother when you was involved in missionary work with Christian surfers but now you’re just a kook that got mixed up with the wrong people. That QAnon garbage youre dabbling in these days will get you in trouble.
For those that don’t understand S.B. emoji game, the storm cloud emoji is QAnon garb for “The storm is coming”
The target emoji is self explanatory.
The sword and shield emoji makes him feel like a warrior behind his keyboard when he’s camped out online battling imaginary evil forces.
Stop embarrassing yourself and find your way back to the right path.
You have free will to not read this blog or it’s comments if it bothers you that she posts here using her name.
Staying in character assassination mode is a dark art.
Beware the Dark Side.
Actually I do my best to ignore her conspiracy BS. It's like she learned something new and wants to apply it to everything. Who in their right mind believes this is all orchestrated. Only you and her believe that crap.

"I mean by shouting at the rooftops like you do. Sometimes it’s extreme but I know it’s the only way to get people to listen. It got my attention. I follow what you say and I think you have a better understanding of the county than most who work there."
Thank you--I appreciate that you weren't trying to get going that I traffic bad information, or act as a conduit, or have been paid for my advocacy etc.
I. Absolutely. Hate. that the only thing that I have ever found to work in this County is screaming from the mountaintops.
Don't know how to say this without drawing more mocking and wrath, but I was a teacher. A really good teacher. Who absolutely adored teaching, and never more when I was working for Extension School at Harvard for non traditional students from every corner of the universe.
I'm not a dummy--I started out with my advocacy knowing that in most situations you catch more bees with honey.
It got me absolutely nowhere...and other long time advocates here will attest the same.
And screaming from the mountaintops hardly gets anywhere, either. Advocacy in this County is an exercise of pounding your head against a brick wall every day a hundred times a day, and once in a blue moon your bloody head might just break through.
It shouldn't be like that. But it is.
And also there's this: it is incredibly dangerous in this town to go against the powers that be. I'm not talking about elected officials. I'm talking about the mega millionaire power brokers that sit behind the scenes and try to blow up elected officials for their development dollars. Those guys are dangerous and merciless. There isn't anything they won't do to achieve their outcomes, fueled by greed.
So what do you do, as somebody who started out on a dead limb, with no contacts, no backing, no name recognition, just nothing but a dead set will to fight against Underhill and his power backers, without a person behind me at that time to set out to expose him.
Answer: you get really loud. Really, really loud.
Another answer: you start speaking truths of the kind that Doug pretends he speaks, while he is being protected by these people. Little by little.
Every time I drew a line in the sand that I was too scared to cross--I can't go there, this person is too big--I ended up having to go there.
And here's the thing--this has never been about politics. What cracks me up is all the comments where people be like, "This woman is running for office and she just keeps running her mouth!"
Ya think?
Because if I could rub a genie out of a bottle and choose between the State's Attorney's Office dropping their charade of charges against the EMS, and running for County Commissioner, oh, you bet, I'd pick that former in a heart beat.
Until then, I will continue to run my mouth, scream, bang on pots, kick doors, punch at the podium, and throw my head against a wall.
Whatever it takes.
--Melissa Pino
And this is why I no longer subscribe to the PNJ. Their political bias wreaks of stupidity and ignorance IMO.
What’s done is done, move on PNJ
I still believe Marlene should get his own wall on the new port a potty on beach access #4
Anonymous 6:36 You don’t know what I believe. But you have free will to read or not read whatever is posted here or anywhere.
What is it that makes people here so dead set in their views?
Like clockwork D.D. ends the thread on ECW calling you all a corrupt board again. I wonder how that's going to work out for him when he wants a vote.
Looks like he just shoved his foot in his mouth again, as usual.
PNJ and ECW hasn’t been a reliable source of unbiased information in a long time.
There’s something deeply wrong with the usual suspects that make a habit of spreading hate and anger. The usual suspects who wake up so full of venom they immediately get online to attack others need to work on themselves. Stop punishing others because your lives are empty and unhappy.
Commissioner Barry will have a town hall in a few hours. I think I read it will be on ECTV. It may be released as a video later, I don't know for sure.
Hopefully they don't come yelling, berating and causing a scene.
William will probably give Steven fair coverage on NorthEscambia.
The notice says the D5 town hall is live streamed and some in ECW are passing on false info with their comments with that alone, but yes the usual suspects are queuing up.
I wonder if they will even go, but just enjoy thinking they look interesting in a group sneering, no matter how many times you explain things some will never get it. One hint.
You don't publicly issue derogatory statements and expect to be effective politically, for the most part.
If they want those questioned answered why didn't they cordially call their commissioner and inquire, I'll tell you why because the answers to their questions are not what they really want. They want to be in the club of misfits and whiners.
When they show up. Barry knows who they are and their intent.
"double bubble toil and trouble"..they have your IP address already too.
"You can fool some of the people some of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time"
Actually some things are none of their business, people don't get that.
You don't HAVE to answer a ringing phone.
I hope Alex doesn't invade Farmer Brown's personal space -- you know the guy with the real pitchfork.
D5 town hall will be live streamed.
Apparently they don't know Doug signed the same document and Wendy claimed later they didn't know either. I hope Steven calmly hands them their asses back on a plate.
Watch what happens compared to their smack talk behind they keyboard.
Anon 12:57 If the usual trouble makers had any real knowledge they still wouldn’t know how to make progress. That’s why they aren’t on any boards, don’t have successful careers, and just make useless noise.
Anyone attending the meeting be aware of who is sitting or standing behind you. Your right to privacy could be violated like what happened at the bocc meeting by a couple people in the audience.
Please anyone attending the meeting tonight don’t make idiots of yourselves like you usually do. It’s a bad look for Pensacola. Have some class.
suggest watch the video.
I’ve watched the meeting and I think Sean needs some serious psychological help. That’s not a personal attack but an observation. I think Steven handled himself well and answered the questions honestly but didn’t air Janice’s dirty laundry. Thank you Steven for having respect for your friend.
Recap D5 Town Hall
1)Eric Gilmore is great, announced raises for paramedic and we are going to a state contract for training and medical review with it seems to be a panel of 3 other doctors.
2)Kevin from ECUA D5 took some heat, shared a lot of info --a few of the citizens were rude. furious and hysterical unable to see his point of view.
3)Saltzman came on there and went on about the money she brought back and bubbly about the bills she had passed and appropriations very positive.
They had fund for Century who also takes care of the waste for the state prison in incorporated D5
Her and Kevin are both open to input and communication.
4)a lot of talk about various people's flooding issues/ also Barry explained the internet going in in places that had no coverage..emotional there, yet understandable.
5) The one at the end was belligerent and still interrogatory. It's actually a bit frighting to observe.
Wendy is still piling and egging it on on ECW.
Nobody ran around taking pictures of people's phone.
A lot of people aired their grievances but few understand the work that goes into solutions, even though leaders took the time to explain it.
Most people just want a solution to their own problem and as a whole are very disrespectful to the elected leaders.
I may have missed a bit but watched it and that's an anonymous recap.
And two of the orchestra-tors of the recent political hit jobs on Barry are still doing their best to make him look bad on ECW. You know a couple of the ones that backed a Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation against someone they disagreed with using Edler..
Looks like Edler just got canned.... starting July 8
Anonymous 12:57,
“no matter how many times you explain things some will never get it” is a great observation. Some of the ignorance is purposeful. A man in the audience at the town hall meeting was explained what he wanted from ecua is illegal. Instead of trying to understand what he was told he didn’t listen and kept yelling and demanding they do it his way. That close minded mentality is unproductive.
Why do some people keep demanding to know why the administrator was fired? Reasons for someone’s firing should be kept private. Commisioner Barry had a meeting with her the day before to explain to her why. Tactfully and politely declining to give the ones demanding an answer was the appropriate thing for Commisioner Barry to do. If you work for the county you know the long list of reasons why she was fired. Not Commisioner Underhill’s version he wants people to think so he can make the board look incompetent and spiteful because of his hatred and spite for them for not paying more of his legal fees. He caused the suits for himself. The county can’t afford to keep paying his legal fees because he can’t keep his mouth shut on Facebook.
Thanks for the recap 11:31 PM. I watched parts of the meeting but haven't had it in the tank yet to go back and watch the whole thing. That was helpful. --Melissa Pino
To the complainers on escambia county watch do you have to whine about everything. your whining about the mobile command unit going to Miami to help our fellow Floridians. Give me a break. If you hate it here so much move so the rest of us can live in peace without you chronic complainers.
Commisioner Steven Barry did a great job last night.I live in his district and I’ve known his family for years he’s good people.
