Novato gadfly Jerome Ghigliotti is known to rail against the wasted taxpayer money that goes to illegal immigrants. Now he's redirecting a little taxpayer money away from taxpayers himself thanks to a $2.5 million lawsuit he's filed against the City of Novato alleging false arrest, false imprisonment, slander, defamation, malice and more.
Ghigliotti's claim stems from an incident at the Novato City Council's Sept. 14 meeting in which the anti-illegal-immigrant crusader turned his back on the council during a time for public comment and launched into one of his frequent anti-illegal-immigrant speeches. He was instructed to either address the council or abandon the podium by then-Mayor Jeanne MacLeamy. When he refused, he was taken under arrest by the chief of police. Charges were not filed by the Marin District Attorney.
Ghigliotti has long expressed outrage toward the council for not placing an initiative on the ballot that, if approved, would require the city to use the E-verify database before hiring any contract employees for city business. Ghigliotti launched the group behind the initiative, Citizens for Legal Employment and Contracting, with another Novato resident, Rick Oltman—a figure on the national anti-illegal-immigrant scene who, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center, has links to right-wing extremists.
Gadfly??
Better a gadfly than a sea of illegal alien cockroaches that have almost entirely trashed north Marin/Novato.
Redirecting Tax-payer money?
I thought that's what the illegals have been doing to that town for decades now....this Guy's a true hero in My eyes.
