Now, the committee that appointed Green must decide whether to remove her from office.
Whistleblowers said Green made unwelcome sexual comments to employees at work, including an incident where Green allegedly proposed a threesome with one employee.
The report also shows that Green allegedly took steps to fire an employee for making a complaint against her, and that she had an inappropriate relationship with a former subordinate employee.
Action News Jax Law and Safety Expert Dale Carson weighed in:
“This is an investigation by quasi-law enforcement individuals. This is not, at this point, a criminal event,” he said.
In the report, the Office of General Counsel says Green engaged in all four types of prohibited conduct: neglect of duty, abuse of power, discrimination, and ethical misconduct; all are grounds for removal from office.
“She is now subject to appropriate administrative action by the agency, which would be the City of Jacksonville, for her behavior, and that could include termination. And I think that’s ultimately up to the mayor and city council to decide that,” Carson explained.
