Rumor Has It: City Attorney Gathe and Josephine Townsend 'Testi-Lied' in Deposition (Updated with Supporting Documents)

There is a lot of talk about City Attorney Ted H. Gathe and Josephine Townsend, committing perjury, but no specifics other than "It's in the public documents", or "It's in the depositions". Well, here's the scoop folks:

Feb 16, 2005 - Office Memo dated Feb 16, 2005, from the Office of the City Attorney to Josephine Townsend from City Attorney Ted Gathe.



This memo states Townsend was placed on Administrative Leave to conduct an investigation into allegations surrounding her work performance as a supervisor and attorney. Gathe states he repeatedly counseled Townsend on that subject and implemented very specific performance expectations. Due to the investigation and other reasons, Gathe came to the conclusion that Townsend did not meet his expectations and he felt it was necessary to terminate her employment, effective immediately.

Not sure if I'm doing this wrong but when I click the links, it just goes to a comcast page.

Thank you! We'll try to get those links working. I think they are suppose to be documents. If that is the case we need to host them somewhere online... Thank you sincerely for the input! -- Goldie

Di tempat Pucuk Bintang Bandung, kawan-kawan dapat menikmati tempat-tempat rimba pinus termasuk bersih dan teratur, nikmati pemandangan Bandung dari titik paling tinggi bukit moko, dan kemah dengan sarana yang lumayan baik.

Selain itu, kita juga dapat menikmati keelokan https://petawisatadunia.com/ tempat patahan lembang dengan hiking menembus rimba pinus lebih kurang 2 KM, lebih kurang 30 menit berjalan kaki.

Rimba pinus di sini pas dicicipi pada pagi atau sore hari. Cukup bersih dan teratur lho hutannya. Saat matahari pagi atau sore tembus antara pohon pinus, dampak sinar yang ada cantik sekali. “Lantai” tanah sekitar hutan tertutup oleh jatuhan daun-daun pinus yang cukup tebal..hingga berkesan sekali.
