The involvement of APS's chief legal counsel begs a question: since when does a non-APS employee (Melendres) informs/instructs/orders the head of APS HR how she will proceed with a new hire? Ched, you have posted numerous times your first hand legal experience with Melendres and his own admission of billing APS around $1M per year. How much knowledge of Martinez's pending criminal proceedings on child sex crimes did Melendres have prior to his telling Rudys that Martinez had already been hired? You are absolutely right that Duran will throw Rudys under the bus today at the Board's closed session. After all, it's Duran's daughter's employment at stake here. It was Valentino who appointed Duran's daughter to a high cabinet position even though she at the time was not an APS employee which clearly broke the APS Board's nepotism policy. It is of no surprise then that it is Duran who continues to stand by the incompetent and shady Superintendent. Now that Moya and Rudys have concrete proof that the superintendent has abused his powers/law/policies, much of what you, Ched, have been fighting so courageously for so many years to make public is finally resonating among the many good and honest Albuquerque educators and residents. It is time for the entire truth about APS to be fully revealed once and for all. Today should be a good start to start cleaning house at APS. For our children's sake.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
