Ferreras staffer fired

From the Daily News:

A city staffer who was quietly fired by Councilwoman Julissa Ferreras (D-E. Elmhurst) says she was unfairly targeted for her connection to the city’s biker scene.

Ivettelis Rodriguez, Ferreras’ former district office director, was dismissed from her $33,000-per-year job after a blog linked her to the bikers who carried out the brutal beatdown of a motorist on the Henry Hudson Parkway.

Rodriguez, 34, says she was officially fired for speaking to the media — not because of any smoking gun connecting her to the rogue riders.

She became the subject of a city probe in mid-October after a blog, “Queens Crap,” linked her to a Facebook campaign to raise money for a motorcyclist charged with attacking Manhattan father Alexian Lien.

Ferreras’ office confirmed the dismissal, but refused to comment. Rodriguez says she was hurt by the councilwoman’s abrupt turnabout.

YAY!!Someone else can have the job who does it instead of being on the internet all day.

I am very happy to read this news.
WAY TO GO CRAPPY.

What kills me is her absolute sense of entitlement to not work all day. I hope one of those savvy lawyers hands her a subpoena and maybe the victims can take out a law suit on her, too.

How dare she do this on the NYC taxpayer's dime? What nerve! Maybe there's more to learn about this woman. I know she wants to be a rebel and all with her overpriced motorcycle. but this is really a bit much.
