PRESS RELEASE

October 2, 2014


Lynch says if Noerdlinger (Mayor’s wife’s chief of staff) lied during investigation she should be fired

PBA president Patrick J. Lynch said:

“Ms. Noerdlinger is a skilled public relations person who doesn’t live up to her public statements. Given her companion’s criminal history and his record of hateful posts on social media, it is easy to see why she might intentionally fail to mention that relationship, which would disqualify from employment, during her pre-hiring investigation.  The standards that apply to hiring police officers should apply equally to hiring high ranking, influential staff members.  If it is found that she committed a lie of omission during the investigation, then she should be fired.”
