Public Info

Allan Parachini was fired from the LA County Superior Court for allegedly leaking information to celebrity gossip website TMZ.com. Had this been true, I would agree that termination would have been lawful and the right thing to do. However, when you dig deeper, you find out that Parachini was really terminated because he released public information when the powers that be did not want to release it. To me, this is just wrong. Public information is public information. Regardless if your boss wants you to drag out the process for releasing the info, you have a duty to your city and state to release the info when it is requested and not to delay for political reasons. http://http//www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-allan-parachini-20101119,0,5754548.story
