HOW MANY SKELETONS COST $17,500 ?!?!
Why are taxpayers paying Erlingson Banks up to $17,500 to review Tedrick Knightshead's personnel file that was requested by the media? Should taxpayers have to pay to spare Knightshead the embarassment of his past sexual harassment complaints and disciplinary action? Cause that's what they're doing.

They are paid well enough for little work AND they're allowed to spend most of their time working their side hustles.
You don’t know what you are talking about. Also, $50k - $120k is well enough?

She's white...that cannot be tolerated among our diverse, open minded, & oh so self righteous elected theives that is the BR council.
It's nothing more than racism.

Amid a push to send the East Baton Rouge parish attorney packing, Metro Council members are already lining up who they'd like to see as a replacement.
Councilman LaMont Cole has asked his colleagues to consider firing Lea Anne Batson, but hasn't said why. With that move under consideration, two members of the Metro Council already have a temporary replacement in mind, according to emails The Advocate obtained Monday.

Metro Council to hold hearing in two weeks on whether to fire Parish Attorney Lea Anne Batson
Batson has said she's being pushed out so her first assistant, Tedrick Knightshead, can replace her, but Councilwomen Erika Green and Tara Wicker are backing city Prosecutor Andy Dotson as the interim parish attorney if Batson is shown the door. Green has asked that an item be placed for introduction on Metro Council's Jan. 23 meeting stating that Dotson should step in if Batson is removed.
Green's Jan. 11 email to Council Administrator/Treasurer Ashley Beck also indicates that Green would like the resolution to include language restricting the Metro Council from appointing Knightshead.
The Metro Council could vote to remove Batson after the public hearing scheduled for its Jan. 23 meeting. Batson has served as the Parish Attorney Office's top official since the council fired her predecessor in 2015.
Green's email to Beck states that the resolution she's sponsoring with Councilwoman Wicker should include language restricting anyone from being appointed as interim who is not employed with the Parish Attorney's Office upon Batson's possible removal.
"I would also like the language to restrict the council from appointing anyone who is employed with the Parish Attorney's office but has submitted a letter of resignation after Dec. 1 until Lea Anne is removed," Green wrote.
Green's email also says she want the item to prohibit anyone who has submitted their resignation after Dec. 1 "from withdrawing that resignation and being eligible to be appointed."

East Baton Rouge councilman seeks Parish Attorney's ouster, won't comment why
"I want the only people eligible to be appointed to be employees of the Parish Attorney's office and no one else," Green wrote.
The language would impact Knightstead's eligibility to serve. On Dec. 14, he submitted a letter of resignation from the No. 2 spot in Batson's office. His resignation is effective Jan. 31.
He has previously denied wanting Batson's job and said he was ready to move on from the Parish Attorney's office where he was worked for the past 13 years.
Batson previously informed the Metro Council she had appointed Dotson to become first assistant after Knightshead's resignation takes effect. Dotson has served as the city prosecutor since 2016.

All this commotion and they still won't say why they want her out

It's not too hard to figure out. What's interesting is there's now two factions each wanting "their" guy as replacement.

It's pretty evident why they want her out. I'm just curious as to what lame excuse they're going to use

Being openly unapologetic racists is what gets them elected. Our mayor is as racist as they come, yet it’s always the first screams out of all their mouths if they feel aggrieved by anything. I’ve spent way too much time at Metro Council meetings over the past months and if you think some of the people are a joke on TV, go experience it in person. It’s scary that these are the people governing our city.

If you were Lea Ann Batson, why would you ever want to still work there?
Posted on 1/15/19 at 10:21 am to Giantkiller
Maybe a sense of public service? She doesn't need the money, she's already drawing her pension, and her family is loaded.

BR Business Report confirms
quote:
In a letter to Metro Council members this morning, Batson defends her tenure in office and notes that she has contacted each of them individually in the past two weeks “to discover and address your concerns about me and or the office. No one has been willing or able to articulate a specific problem.”
