Freddy Escobar, suspended president of the United Firefighters of Los Angeles City, claims to have evidence to counter allegations of financial improprieties, including missing receipts for credit card transactions. His union's parent organization, the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF), has placed the union under conservatorship for the first time due to severe financial oversight issues. A recent audit revealed that over 70% of Escobar's credit card expenditures lacked supporting documentation, leading to significant concerns over union finances and Escobar's management practices.
Escobar's allegations of missing receipts and the IAFF’s rigorous audit have led to a historic suspension and conservatorship of the UFLAC, marking unprecedented scrutiny.
Escobar stated, 'An organization that I would have died for is not giving me an opportunity now to present to them what they've been looking for,' highlighting the dramatic personal impact.
IAFF President Kelly disclosed in a letter that more than 70% of Escobar's credit card transactions lacked documentation, raising serious questions about financial management.
The IAFF's conservatorship over UFLAC is unprecedented, reflecting growing concerns over financial improprieties amid substantial overtime payments to top union officials.
