So here's the way I see it.

The firefighters were always allowed a certain number of sick and personal days. That total number doesn't seem to have changed.

Then they asked Mayor Avedisian for a clarification to the process without increasing the total number of days. Avedisian allowed a new way to calculate the days off. That was Avedisians call to make. Maybe he got it right. Maybe he got it wrong. Maybe his decision just needs to be tweaked.

One thing is for sure. This investigation is going to cost the taxpayers a fortune and this question has to be asked: If there was SUCH wrongdoing, how come no one; not the State Police; not the FBI; NO ONE, has even telephoned the current Mayor? That lack of action alone, suggests that this is much ado about (next to) nothing. In the meantime, no one can say that Warwick doesn't have one of the finest fire departments in the nation. No one, of course, except Rob Cote who barged into my office last week, ordered me to read The Providence Journal, then swore at me and flipped me off when I refused.

In my opinion, Cote is the one who needs to be investigated by the FBI. He has admitted to stealing many of my campaign signs. He has viciously lied about me repeatedly, acting just like a henchman for then candidate-for-Mayor Joe Solomon, who was also the Acting Mayor at that time. Someone who looks JUST LIKE COTE, was filmed stealing my large, expensive signs, but Acting Mayor Solomon's Warwick Police said the image wasn't clear enough. I didn't believe that. Someone trespassed on my property and vandalized my 4' x 8' sign leaving a fingerprint that was clear-as-a-bell to me, but again, Acting Mayor Solomon's Warwick Police said it wasn't "clear enough" to be compared to Cote's fingerprints. I didn't believe that either. Now Cote has barged into my office uninvited and unwelcomed. I didn't bother to even report that one to Mayor Solomon's Warwick Police. I didn't believe they would even ask him if he did it. Someone NEEDS to stop this maniac before his actions cause real harm. Maybe it needs to be the FBI.

In the meantime Justanidiot and PaulHuff got it right in my opinion. These charges are "fake news", a "waste of time" and "laughable".

Merry Christmas everyone.
