Mr. Gary Watson,
Chairman
Mohave County Board of Supervisors
700 West Beale Street
Kingman, AZ 86401
Chairman Watson & Members of the Board:
It is unfortunate that the Mohave County Board of Supervisors appears poised to
terminate my employment today because of allegations about me. It is a sad
commentary that the Board is listening to several employees and former
disgruntled employee, Kathy McGehee, who was documented as placing a dead
scorpion in my in -box at work. When confronted with the video Ms. McGehee
laughed and admitted it. Since the Board never asked me about the incident or
any other of the baseless allegations, I will tell you that security cameras were
placed in the Technical Services and Administrative Building three years ago
because a former staff person was stealing toilet paper, DVD's, etc. All you need
to do is ask for the purchase orders for those cameras.
It is incredibly sad that the Mohave County Board of Supervisors does not
support senior management and department heads when they are attacked by
such unfounded allegations, rumors and gossip. The Board listens and acts
unwaiverable opinions based upon such rumors, hearsay and innuendos from
staff rather than researching the facts. One of your campaign promises was
transparency in government. Yet you have demonstrated a willingness to not be
transparent, but rather to convene backroom star chamber like proceedings to
solidify your opinions without ever really investigating the underlining basis for
those opinions, or the impact of your decisions on your loyal employees or your
citizenry.
Sincerely,
Danielle R. Krol
Library Director
Mohave County Library District !
