BOE Voting Meeting - January 24, 2017


I can't believe that I haven't posted this video yet. It was really quite entertaining.

During the meeting, the Board of Education voted to reverse it's controversial December decision to provide personal legal counsel to 5 board members in the on going battle over ethics charges filed against fellow board member, Joan Minnuies. The fireworks begin at the 51 minute mark of the video and proceed from there. It really is a must watch.

Also be sure to check out minutes between 1:12:00 to 1:28:00 of the video. Former board president Jim Cody, who was one of the board members looking for free legal representation against Joan Minnuies, decided to vote against the advise of the BOE lawyer, who advised that there may be a conflict of interest if he voted on the proposal to table the legal representation. He voted anyway and when the vote passed to reverse the BOE's December action, he accuses other board members of collusion and conspiracy!  Ain't that a case of the kettle calling the pot black?!

It’s not a matter of if Joan Minnuies will be kicked off the BOE, it’s just a question of how long it will take and who will pay for the lawyer. That horse has left the barn.

Cody, what an absolute joke

What an embarassment...how many more years do Middletown taxpayers have to subsidize the personal feuds and shenanigans of this lot? And it is just too perfect that the word FICTION is seen right over Cody's head!
