Outrageous reason LA County CEO was awarded $2m payout for 'hurt feelings' that'll see her take months off taxpayer-funded $570,000-a-year job
Daily Mail ^

The taxpayer-funded CEO of Los Angeles County was quietly awarded $2million after she complained about a ballot measure that she claims will force her out of her job and bruise her 'reputation'.

Fesia Davenport, who earns a hefty $570,000 per year for overseeing the county's government operations, secretly entered the handsome settlement in mid-August.

The agreement, first reported by the LAist on Tuesday, vaguely indicated Davenport sought out compensation for 'reputation, embarrassment, and emotional distress' she sustained on the job.

If you can’t take the heat, sue the constituency that elected you!

Grift pays. I suppose she claimed racism over the “loss of reputation”, embarrassment, etc.

More DEI hires with DEI arrogant sense of entitlement. Her salary is double that of the mayor of New York City.

This can not and will not stand. I see no indication any jury decided to uphold her grievances by trial.

Sounds like an under the table deal.

Who OK’d this ?

See https://ceo.lacounty.gov/meet-fesia-davenport/

From that website, she has a masters in public administration fro Cal State Northridge and a law degree from UC Hastings.

Not exactly Ivy League, but I will give her credit for at least passing the California bar exam in 1996. Don’t know if it was on her first try.

Another DEI black woman scamming the system. Looks like the precedent was set that LA County was a soft touch for a separation pay out so that everyone expects one. If she sued there’s no jury in the world that would award her damages.
