It depends if it was county business unless breaking sunshine law I feel.

If Mr Robinson were indicted by a grand jury, for any number of reasons, would the county cover his legal fees?

” it would get to the point where commissioners would not vote on anything. ”

Well that would suit me just fine. Every time we let politicians vote on what money
they get….this is what we see. THEIR answer will ALWAYS be …..”GIVE IT TO US”…
oops I mean “YES”. Is there really a need to pay them to vote?

I say since they voted for us to pay, lets vote to let them pay us back. Win
or lose….IF WE PAY FOR THIS THEN LETS SUE THEM TOO!

This town always stinks~!

So Shiloh you think that they should have to pay there bill if it was a vote while in a public meeting. How would that work it would get to the point where commissioners would not vote on anything. If Wilson would not have offered the guy a raise before he started his job we would not be discussing this. The budgets of the county city everything are being looked at with a microscope we are out of MONEY or will be quickley, The only way out is to raise taxes and Im not for that butwhat are we going to do borrow money from the FEDS well we are doing that already because I had to pay some of the interest payment on my business because of the loan interest on unemployment comp fund is dry so the interest has been passed on to business owners im about to incorporate in another state this is crap.

I find l am not hardly surprised at this action. The real mystery here, is how these
individuals were seated on the commission in the first place.

It is obvious that someone cast a vote for them, but why? Someone must have felt
they could trust them to be honest and upright officers of the county.

All I can say is THANKS WILSON. Instead of going into the meeting and pitching Gibbs he should have just “run into each member of the board by accident” and made his feeling know.

Those who have to pay, decided to pay with our money. Seems reasonable.

Safebear on May 18th, 2012 10:51 am Isn’t this a serious conflict of interest? 3 of 5 commissioners are being sued and they get to vote on their own financial gain? I would tell them fight your own battel and if you win, then we can consider paying your bills but not up front.

People of Escambia County Florida, you should be screaming at this one. It’ll cost more than $15,000 in legal fees to fight this. It’s your money though.

This is a good question that needs a answer. How about a answer NorthEscambia.com, . Any help???

They voted on what they thought was best for the county.What should they do not vote on any motions come on people Wilson screwed this whole deal up. WD thought he was invisible now he is wearing a striped jumpsuit. Wonder who will be next.
