In her September 28th letter, Nancy E. O’Malley, Alameda County District Attorney, ripped apart the arrogant claims of Michael Colantuono “Special Counsel” hired by the City of Alameda. The letter was received by the Alameda Mayor’s Office on October 6, 2010 and can be viewed here.
O’Malley’s letter is stinging (for Colontuono)… here are a few excerpts:
“I find it offensive that you have singled out Asian-American leaders”
“This sort of racially charged accusation has no place in professional dialogue.”
“Whatever your motives in making these false claims, I remain mindful of our role in this process: to objectively and dispassionately evaluate the facts and the law so that a just decision can be reached.”
“I consider the comments you made…to have been made out of ignorance and disappointment, not out of malice and accordingly plan no additional action against their maker.”
It is absolutely ridiculous that the City of Alameda (or should I say Ann Marie Gallant) is paying Mr. Colantuono taxpayer dollars to play these kinds of legal tricks. To personally attack public servants Nancy O’Malley and Lena Tam is outrageous, and I would hope that our hired and elected officials would have better judgment than to hire a legal representative with such little integrity or tact.
