Falsehood – Jay Ledbetter is getting his information from a disgruntled former employee of the Coroner’s office who was fired for misconduct.
The incumbent has on his website and is also handing out to various voters a handout that claims Jay Ledbetter is getting his information about what is going on in the Coroner’s office from a person who was working at the Coroner’s office, but who was fired for serious misconduct.
The truth – There are many people who are giving Jay Ledbetter “real time” information about what has gone on, and what is currently going on, in the Arapahoe County Coroner’s office. NONE of whom is the person that the incumbent mentioned.
Many people who have worked in the Coroner’s office, and some members of the Colorado Coroner’s Association have been excited about the prospect of Jay Ledbetter taking over this office. Most of them are afraid of the incumbent, and the prospect that he might actually retain this office, and take vengeance upon them.
Jay Ledbetter, on October 16th, at a candidate forum, asked the incumbent for the name of the person who he said was the informant. The incumbent gave Jay Ledbetter a name. It wasn’t a person who Jay Ledbetter had ever spoken to, or had ever met. Jay immediately told the incumbent, “I have never met or spoken to that person. She has given me no information at all.”
The incumbent knows that Jay Ledbetter’s information is accurate, and has come from reliable sources who have worked in the Coroner’s office, or have worked closely with that office.
Still, the incumbent keeps putting out the falsehood regarding the sources of information coming to Mr. Ledbetter.
