(The Board of Supervisors fired the CEO earlier this month)...The Clerk of the Board of Supervisors was fired the same day, April 8.

The two had been placed on administrative leave on March 7. Nobody with the County has ever said why the actions were taken. A lot of people would like to know, including Miguel Figueroa, the County Executive Officer who was fired. Figueroa was at the Board of Supervisors meeting Tuesday. He said he has never been told the reason for the board action. Figueroa's attorney also attended the meeting. He told the Supervisors his client had 4.2 years left on his contract with the county. The attorney said Figueroa wanted the 4.2 years in in salary and not the six months' severance pay being offered. County officials have said details would be released, once the investigation was complete
