This is disgusting how they are speaking about this horrid act. The mayor and Pawar should be ashamed of this jibberish. This shows so little respect to the woman that endured this. Horrible. Horrible

Mr. Pawar, It seems you owe me lunch.

Mary, Lets broaden your statement that they show little respect to the victiims,
It appears to me that none of the Morristown 's politicos show any respect for
Democracy. Not just Democrats. Democracy. Shameless guzzlers.

Is it legal for Many or all representatives of Morristowns Governing Body to lie to people that they are paid to represent? It is not obstruction of justice because that is
predicated on having justiice or at least a semblance of such...duh. are the lights on over there? Is anyone home? Are they at all cognizant of who they are and what they should be doing?. Something is amiss or a mess with these boys.

Not only keeps his pension, but costs the town an additional 5 or so million with the lawsuit. Next time, he should just jay-walk. As a woman, this council makes me sick!
Sexual harassment compared to not returning a library book? Mr Dougherty has lost my vote.

Ok. Personally I like John Fugger. I liked to work with him. He was a no nonsense
Professional. Of course if he is guilty of everything they say, that changes things.

Could everyone, including Dougherty, Pawar and my rep who can't return a call or
An e mail, could you all give me the evidence that makes this man guilty? The people
Who have put out all of the information have said that he is guilty.
HOW CAN ANYONE KNOW THAT? Put the evidence out in public or stop. I am a victims rights person but In this country, PEOPLE ARE INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY.
I can't prove Mr. Fugger is guilty. IF YOU CAN, please do.

Here's what I can prove....the town has issued, not all publicly, many conflicting
Statements to me. They have refused to answer straightforward questions that
Are my right as a taxpayer to know. I think that several of their statements may have
Been ouright lie. But to be fair, they may have just been clueless. Both are not
Qualities we want in leadership. So why don't we throw the bums out????? Legally of course. And no harassing calls please, mr. Government. God Bless America....
Remember this is America ....not some petty little gulag with barbaric rule.

Where is the proof? How can anyone really know? Tell me and show me.
Mr. Fugger isn't even part of the lawsuit. Which means there has got to be more.....
This is about a form of management that was inherently harassing and the big wigs
Who let it happen. My source. The Supreme Court 1984. About the illegality of
Allowing a work atmosphere that was degradng to women to exist.

who is bonnie arnold haynes? what is your story? why are you so angry?

How can u be interested inmtown and not be mad? And you are?

What can we do about the rest of the Inspectors and town employees that have the attitude of entitlement and "do not have to do anything" attitude but wait to retire. We need to not let John get his pension. This will send a signal to the rest of the narcissistic dairy aires working in that building, that they are untouchable and can continue their tyrannical reign unhindered.

The town really needs to go after Fugger for damages if that woman sues and wins. Fugger already cost me money by him working there, I am not going to sit quietly while he continues to cost me money by not working there. The pension is meant to compensate for a job well done during a career, it is not an entitlement meant to be paid out regardless of performance. Not going to happen under my watch. the pension will not be paid.

We can pay for John's mistake by dismantling the Rent control department. People don't need this useless service. There are things called "leases agreements" that people agree to and sign. If lease agreements are broken then there are things called "small claims court" and people called "lawyers" that handle this sort of thing. Why we have a communist unit called rent control in the first place is beyond me. Cut that department and fire that manager, and rent the space out to a lawyer. Cut, Cut, Cut.

Word on the street is this lady is going to get 5 million when she sues Morristown. She has complained multiple times about Fugger and he just kept harassing her. Mr. Fugger must have some serious dirt on Dougherty if Morristown is really going to give this guy his pension after all this. We can't let Fugger cost the town $5 Million AND grant him his pension, can we????

If the town pays money, it is not about 1 victim and 1 white man. Its about what
The town as a, and I don't know what kind of entity it is, but its he whole shebang.
One guy wouldn't make it to small claims court, much less 5 million dollars.
Where are the yearly employee reviews? Who gave them, reviewed them and ultimately
Signed off on them? Because if all the boys forgot to mention a woman or anyone else,
Was being harrassed that is so much bigger. Wish I were a lawyer because that
Is a different crime and punishment. Mr. Pawar, or any of the othet lawyers crawling
Around could explain that.... has anyone heard from the towns legal counsel? Or
The other guy who was getting 4500 A WEEK, that Christie got rid of. He wanted an extra
Month. Is there a citizens review board?

When it says Morristown and Fugger worked out the final settlements, who exactly is Morristown? I never saw anything on the agenda. Who made this decision? If it was the mayor behind closed doors AGAIN, I am finished with that man!
I intend to ask about this at the next council meeting. If the women on that council went along with this, I am finished with them too.
This is a disgrace to women everywhere.

John ... how do u prove it. Corruption is its own club and can be very nasty.
Give us the links for the chain. It is not corrupt to be lazy, rude, ill mannered or
Unprofessional altho it is a sign of lousy management. In NYC, Bloomberg told DMV
To cut the attitude and get to work. If u have to go to Mtown govt a lot, how
Bout tshirts that say, HEY I PAY YOU. AND ICAN FIRE YOU.

Cameron .. if I had had that experience, I would be appalled, and say a lot more that u said. My best friend has als. My husband was in a wheelchair for years and my Dad was
A Doc. Malls, airports, hotels...we don't do shit for these people. If we could fine
Anyone who is delinquent on this, from AMERICAN AIRLINES on down, with really big
Fines, we could help people and make money. Screwing the handicapped is disgusting.
What do some of these people, like Ron Williams, the former CEO of Aetna see when
They look in the mirror.

Psychopaths, they are all around us.

does anyone honestly think that the WHOLE story will ever come out? regardless if he is found guilty or not, he will always try to make himself sound better and she will always try to make it sound worse. thats not an opinion thats just how it is. If Fugger was such a "illinformed" and "unresponsive" employee of the town then how is it that 25 years later he was still there working. And as stated in previous posts, there hasn't been proof made public yet. And apparently she's getting money, anyone so its not like she's just being ignored.. And again, whether he is guilty or not, I'm sure he has a family, who are innocent bystanders are a little bit relieved that there is going to be some kind of money. I know that this is a serious situation but explain to me this...how is sitting at your computer behind a screen name going to do anything. Don't you all have something else you could be doing (myself included so don't come back at me saying "don't you?"). I'm in no way trying to defend him or anything, I'm simply saying that your opinions are your opinions. they are not going to change no matter what happens, so we can all sit here like immature high schoolers and bicker back and forth or we could all just move on and go about our own business.

I was actually going to try and bring down Fugger and the contruction engineers myself. I was going to document and record everything i had to go thru to build a small structure on my property. I was searching for a journalist to help me with the sting and do accurate documentation and then fry all these guys and embarrass them right out of their jobs and exposing them. I got side tracked with a personal side issue, and then decided it wasn't worth the effort, since the economy is going to crash here anyway. Why bother. Turns out, these guys will hang themselves. Fugger went down and others will follow, it appears.

He is the second guy in the administration recently to go down.Dougherty only has something to say when there is no controversy. He likes to B.S. and smile for the cameras but is he the kind of leader that hols people accountable?

Who was the first? Agreed. No leader, leadership type.

FICTION

The PS is that whichever Judas you pick checks into drug or alcohol counseling as
A result of PTSD. Storm Sandy injuries. We don't talk pensions here because by now
We are into the political appointees,
Of course, you already have an Hispanic or African American advisory groups that
Anyone employed by the town may go to privately so as not to endure the
Pain and embarassment of trying to tell something to a white redneck when there
Is no way in hell they will get.
Then of course, you lose the next elections because by now the dull whitle republicans
Are looking downright cuddly.

Mr. Dougherty .... as you know, humor, parody, hyberpole for emphasis is all covered by
The 1st ammendent and Congress re agreed to this during press credential hearings
In the 90s. Comedy Central want Reporting Credentials and there were some good
Arguments about why they shouldn't get them ......until their lawyer, who used a wheechair and could find no handicapped access started. They we credentialed.
Why am I telling you this. I want to preempt any retaliatory tactics by the town
Such as but not limited to; phones calls to friends and relatives, especially the relatives,
Cease and decists, any misinformation, omission of information or anything
Else that takes u out of …political types and would be perceived by me or anyone
Around me as the actions of malicious creeps. Oops sorry I mispelled white in a couple of places. It is in no way an indication of prejudice.

Cameron .. I sense that you really do understand the for lack of a better word, gestalt
Of these situations. The. evolution. We all do. When is it ok to look the other way?
If I have to feed my family and I am the breadwinner, how can I speak up...it may be wrong but I need to protect my family. Maybe I worked with someone, or everyone,
Who was racist, sexist, anti-semitic ...but if I didn't work with them, I. Wouldn't have
Been working at all. There are no legal technicalities to get u around the bills,
The people ........in real life there are no lawyers.

WTF? Don't you have anything better to do? Stop flexing your muscles, threatening all kinds of garbage. You all complain, complain , complain! You really think you're getting anywhere by commenting on The Patch website?!? Take action or SHUT UP!

Commenting is action. And I think that Patch is great forum for democracy.
For instance, you can just hit delete. Or have an attitude adjustment. Another
Word for comlain is protest, protest, protest. Voice of the people, in my case
Person.

Hit delete or start going back over misassumptions. I really do think that protesting
On Patch's site is part of change. And aren't u overstepping the bounds of reality
By assumong that comment and actions are either/or? Since u know nothing about
Me and have skipped right to your own opinion section, this must be how you all
Perceive your own participation here
So why don't u stay on ur own "point" and figure out how u will change things?

If u have any kind of plan for action, u have a lot of support.

Town officials, look what can happen when you get too corrupt.

Point well taken.
