I posted the following message on the club board under the club president's post announcing Jim Reilly being ousted as claims director.
I wanted to express my distress and displeasure in your action in encouraging Jim Reilly to leave his position as claims director of our organization. I doubt very much you will find another person with Jim's qualifications including past service as a deputy district attorney. It also makes it appear that you do not approve of Jim's thorough investigation and perhaps want someone who will be a "yes" man to the board. As far as seeking legal counsel to advise you on what you can publicly disclose, I can assure you that from my long journalism experience, it is very possible to receive that advice in less than 24 hours. The board using that as an excuse to withhold information for a long period of time is pure nonsense
