Interim Mayor Kevin Jenkins' dismissal of chief of staff Leigh Hanson poses risks for the city's defense in a lawsuit from former police chief LeRonne Armstrong. Armstrong is suing the city for allegedly retaliating against him for whistleblowing and violating his free speech. Hansen, who faced accusations of racism due to controversial notes, was to represent the city in the lawsuit but was removed shortly after her firing. Her absence could have significant implications for the city's legal strategy in this high-profile case.
Hanson's termination potentially hinders the city's defense in a lawsuit involving former police chief LeRonne Armstrong, complicating matters for the city.
Hanson defended her notes as being taken out of context, but the firing raises questions about the city's legal capabilities in the ongoing lawsuit.
