August a busy month for raconteurs and reprobates
Emergency Management Alert, September 11, 2007
August, it seems, was a particularly busy month for the morally challenged. We could barely keep up. There was
- the latest on an investigation into racism at the Los Angeles Fire Department (you may remember the LAFD case in which some firefighters fed dogfood to an African-American colleague);
- tales of the alleged use of a Washington, D.C. firehouse as a bordello, and--this just in!--the attendant arrest of a former city firefighter
- and the story of the crank caller with no life (allegedly) who slammed San Francisco's 911 system with nearly 2,000 fake emergency calls over the past six months, sending dispatchers insane and wasting the time of police and firefighters sent out on bogus calls.
