In an interview shortly after the announcement, Bell defended the assertions on his resume, saying he did not think his job application material was “deliberately inaccurate.”

Bell said he has documents that show he had completed coursework to qualify for an MPA at Bernard M. Baruch College of the City University of New York, but that he did not have a diploma because he has not yet completed coursework above the minimum master’s requirements. He did not provide the records Friday.

He similarly held firm on claims that he left previous government posts voluntarily and is considered a university lecturer. Given the chance, Bell said he could have proven both his experience and his value to East Baton Rouge.

“I’m disappointed that opportunity won’t be available,” he said while boarding a flight bound for a conference for public administrators.

Bell acknowledged being fired in Walla Walla. But he emphatically said Monday -- and maintained again Friday after his resignation was announced -- that he voluntarily left jobs at the South Florida Water Management District and the real estate division of the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation.

Termination letters obtained by The Advocate confirm he was fired, in one case following a paid suspension while he was placed under investigation. The letters are addressed to Darryl Bell; the former chief administrative officer's full name is Darryl LeTroy Bell.

For his part, Bell on Friday said his family is trying to figure out their next step. Bell said his wife is preparing for a job interview at LSU and remarked that he may still become a resident of Baton Rouge

Lulz could Broome be off to a worse start as mayor?

F King would welcome him to LSU with open arms.

So will she look beyond skin pigmentation as qualifications for her next hire?

Hell no. The first criteria is to be BLACK. I truly feel that Broome will resign or be arrested for wrong doings in office before her term is up.

Bell's replacement WILL be black. You can take that to the bank. Hopefully, she picks someone who is qualified as well. I'm just waiting for Gravy and the SJW gang to blame Bell's situation on the 2 white reporters who uncovered his lies.

She won't resign if she can pin the crimes on her subordinates, or she'll simply play the race card. If she were to step down or be forced out, would Scott Wilson automatically succeed her?

I think people could stomach her if, during her term in office, she basically did nothing. She wouldn't improve the quality of life in BR, but she wouldn't make it any worse. My fear is that she will undo much of the good that Holden did while in office, AND actually make things worse.

It really wasn't that hard to figure out. Idk what she was doing these past four months. I figured it out within 10 minutes of finding out he was hired.

proof

Incompetence is an understatement.

Yes. Until a special election is held to fufill the remainder of her term, if it's greater than a year remaining.

Forget the next CAO. Consider that Broome will be hiring a new police chief. Imagine how well the rank & file will feel if she hires someone equally incompetent to run the police dept.
