Hmmmmm….no wonder the City of Renton spent lots of time and money and all efforts to convince Deputy Chief/Sgt Marsalisi to retire. Just looking at his civil service hearing request, it seems he has plenty of dirt to toss onto the department, with the department’s response to pay him until his early retirement and have him sign a “hush hush” agreement.
Well there deal old City of Renton….be prepared, I’m going to ask for much of what Chuck was going to bring out anyway. So in the end, the “public information” is made available to the public anyway and Chuck got an early retirement. It’s a Win-Win! (and this includes asking for Tanya Gardanar’s hostile work environment claim. Let’s just make this one big happy family get together. And oh yeah, there will be follow up on the email production. Too many loose ends to let go. Time for a court to take a look.

Chuck has been a slow-release poison at the Department for many, many years. Couple that with an administration that chose to ignore the damage he has done, and the continued damage of their own decisions, only made for the perfect disaster. The Department moral is at the lowest I have ever seen it and it continues to decline. But what do you expect when you keep in command a Deputy Chief who escapes from discipline time-after-time, who continues to act in cowardice, and conveniently forgets what he has done to bring the Department to its knees (i.e., Troxel) and a Chief who has never had the backbone to do the right thing, no mater how harsh the decision. I guarantee you this Department will never recover as long as the current command staff remains in place. There’s no respect, no trust, and certainly no leadership. I’m scared for us all, every day.

From what I have read in the emails, it looks like Troxel is the poison. Chuck looked like he was the cure to the poison, but the Chief would rather have his department drink the poison than the cure.
