Lemon Grove City Councilwoman Liana LeBaron was arrested and charged with misdemeanor domestic battery last Monday. She was served with an emergency protective order by the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department.
She had plenty of accusations against her, such as yelling at council members and the Mayor, usage of racial epithets, fake accusations of fraud, and abuse against her colleagues.
“LeBaron seems to be oblivious to the professional damage and negative impact on staff morale her current and past actions have caused”, according to the report.
“The City has no comment regarding the specific allegations at issue at this time, but recognizes the severity and seriousness of domestic violence in general. If you are a victim and need help, please reach out to the National Coalition against Domestic Violence at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233),” City Manager Lydia Romero said.
In her own Facebook post, LeBaron said “The City Council, City Manager, City Attorney, City Clerk and Assistant City Manager are trying to silence me for doing the public’s work.” She said that those accusations were false, and provided a detailed explanation of the accusations in a letter from the March 8 meeting.
