911 dispatchers file suit, one says blacks had to take city calls because they ‘speak ghetto’

Published November 20, 2014

PITTSBURGH – Three minority women who worked at a western Pennsylvania 911 center have filed lawsuits, with one of them saying black dispatchers were made to take calls from inner city residents because they knew how to “speak ghetto.”

Two of the Allegheny County dispatchers are black and one is Hispanic. They say they were subjected to ethnic slurs.

Ruby Helvy, who is black, says her bosses targeted her for discipline while letting other employees slide. Kelli Rodriguez, a Hispanic woman, says she was subjected to harassment. Dapree Thompson, who is also black, says she was forced to work overtime while others got to go home.

A county spokeswoman did not immediately respond to the lawsuits, which were filed late Wednesday. The county’s solicitor is also declining comment.
