Re
DeKab Board of Ethics:
Is There Outside

Sabotage Action Plan
Memo
Comments: DeKalb Board of Ethics: Is There Outside Manipulation and a Sabotage
Action Plan?
We received a letter from the Board of Ethics lawyer suggesting I, Viola Davis, not attend the
May 8,2014 meeting. When we asked other complainants if they received the letter, we found
that we were the only one to receive a letter to not attend.
We have no choice but to ask if there is an action plan to manipulate and sabotage the Board
of Ethics to prevent the general public from holding elected officials and employees of
government agencies accountable.
J ohn Ernst, Acting Chairman, asked that we forward the letter to the board because he was not
familiar with the letter suggesting I not attend the board meeting.
To ensure transparency, ethics, and accountability, we have decided to place a majority of our
documents online for the general public to review. We strive to make this process fair and
balanced for the general public by removing the political manipulation and sabotage to include:
1. CEO Lee May replacement of Chairman Isaac Blythers when he needed to be
reappointed to ensure stability and continuity of the Board of Ethics.
2. CEO Lee May replaced Blythers with Terrance Thornton without first vetting the
replacement for such a critical position. The Atlanta J ournal-Constitution stated that
Thornton's financial history includes a foreclosure and not paying his taxes on time.
3. Viola Davis was sent a letter suggesting she not attend the meeting on May 8,2014.
We request the process be more transparent, fair and balanced. We demand the political
manipulation cease immediately. We need an Ethics Board that reassures the public it will lay
a foundation of integrity, fairness, and overall respect for the process. We must restore public
trust at all cost.
Sincerely,
