City Councilor At-Large, Source of Early Info. Factual?
Q's.
1. Did a tenant in the building --- who disapproved of some of the partiers' "lifestyle choices" --- phone city councilor, perhaps exaggerating some aspects of conditions or events? IDK.
2. Did city councilor convey this info or his concerns to either FD, LE, et al? Or did he request findings from them? Any attempt to verify info directly from the horses' (plural) mouths, then decide whether to go to the media?
2. Why did the city councilor do early MSM interview(s?)? To land some column inches in the press? To score a few sound bites on TV, radio, youtube, podcasts? Or for virtual-signaling vid clips for his next campaign ads? IDK
From watching the vid (sorry, no link, but was posted shortly after thread opened), I'm inclined to say #3 is likely.
imo, icbw.
Again just nattering away, w no knowledge of individuals at the scene of 9118 call or those speaking in the aftermath. And w'out knowledge of facts at scene.
@katydid23 Yes, speaking gen'ly, not to this specific circumstance, a muni. FD & PD & other officials w conflicting reports may try to sweep something under the rug. Maybe applicable here, IDK. Also I'm posting w'out knowledge of facts at scene, as all of us are."It was obviously sickening to hear from those that were there at the scene describing what they saw, and the actions of the adults that were in the room," Flaherty said. "They were concerned. They had reached out to me just to make sure that it didn't get swept under the rug."6
BBM part= Interesting they were worried it would get swept under the rug.
