(BCN) – Three major witnesses at the hearing of San Matteo Sharif Corpos Corpus witnessed Wednesday afternoon, describing their observations on the relationship between Corbus and its chief of staff, Victor Anil, which supervisors say is inappropriate.
“Every time I saw Christina, I saw Victor,” said Daniel Joeni, a former Sharif office, who supported the Corpus campaign for Sharif Police. “They don’t seem to be separate at all.”
The hearings, which started on Monday and estimated at ten days, were driven by the Corbus movement to resume the unanimously supervisory council’s decision to overthrow his post in June.
In November 2024, the province issued a 400 -page investigation by the retired judge of Edoris Cordele claiming that Corbus had an inappropriate relationship with Anil and strengthened the culture of intimidation and revenge in the Sharif office.
The report sparked many invitations to resign, but it remained enthusiastic, on the pretext that she was a victim of the culture of “good children club” in Sharif’s office.
Instead of holding summons elections, the Supervisors Council took the unprecedented step of setting a charter amendment, in measurement A, in the poll that would give the council the authority to remove the group. In the special elections in March, the voters agreed over an overwhelming majority.
Listening sessions are one of the final stages of the prolonged boycott process to remove Corpus, giving them the general opportunity to address these allegations against them. A large part of the testimony of witnesses on the third day focused on evaluating whether Corpus and Aenle had an intimate relationship, which raised concerns about the conflict of potential interests.
She spent the first thirty minutes with her testimony on the platform. She discussed sexual harassment and threats of murder and bullying, which she said she faced during her time in Sharif’s office.
She recounted a moment before she became an honorable, in which he pulled the representative of the tail of her horse “strongly”, and that he was cleaned under the carpet by Sharif the assistant at that time.
Corbus said on the podium: “I withdrew from behind the ponytail and grabbed my head twice. I was shocked. “
During the lunch rest, Corpus and her lawyers have interviewed procedures so far and analogy of a process.
Corbus has repeated that she is simply a victim of identical and identical culture in the San Matteo County Office, which resists the changes she tried to provide.
She said in an interview, “To keep the status quo, they will fight you teeth and nails.”
Corpus’s lawyer, Tom Perez, believes that because Judge Cordele cannot be considered in a legal court, the voters were deceived to vote in favor of the measure A. He referred to fingers in the province Michael Calgi, who made a claim of $ 10.5 million against Corbus and Enlil on charges of distortion.
“I do not blame voters for voting for him because the wrong information was not from a source they did not know, it was the boycott itself,” Perez said in an interview. “Shame on them.”
But some of the witnesses that Judge Cordel met because of her report on Wednesday, explaining to retired judge James Emerson what they noticed between Corbus and Ein.
The civil employee of the Sharif office and his former friend in Corpus, Valerie Barnes, gave an insight into the alleged relationship between Corbus and Ein, who married at that time. Barnes worked at Milbra Police Office as an executive for police services when Corbus was the captain there.
“They were romantically involved,” said Barnes. ))
Barnes also recalled some cases where Corbus claims homosexual and racist insults.
During her campaign of Sharif, Barnes said she remembered Corpus who called Carlos Bolanus, who was busy in the race, “Coconut”.
“This means that when you are brown outside, but it is white from the inside,” Barnes said.
Corpus also used the term “Fuzz Pumper”, a humiliating term for lesbians, to refer to a member of the Millbrae Gina Papan City Council. He appeared in some of the text messages sent to Barnes that were presented in the court.
Corbus wrote in a text to Barnes: “The sister of Zaghab is a list to accomplish it and the place of hairdressing,” Corbus wrote in a text to Barnes.
In her testimony, Corpus argued that she learned of the gay term from Barnes and was not aware of its sense. However, in the textual exchanges offered in court, Barnes used the title “Combover” to refer to Papan and not “Fuzz Pumper”.
Maria Cook, a Corpus lawyer, was interrogated Barnes and interrogated her credibility.
Cooke found that it is skeptical of how the incidental relationship accusations between Corpus and Aenle came from one interview in the report of Judge Cordele, who was Barnes.
“You are the only person who claimed these allegations of kissing, rubbing, neck, feet and shoulders,” Cook said. “You are the only one who testifies to this near personal contact.”
However, the next witness to take the situation was Guinea, who also gave an insight into what he believed was an affair between Aenlle and Corpus.
Guinea volunteered for Corbus in her campaign. But just one week after Corbus took office, he left his career, which lasted more than two law enforcement in the province of San Matteo.
Guinee said that during the Corpus campaign, he attended several convergences on zooming, but he was surprised by the vision of Payl and their sitting near the calls. In one meeting, Guinea claimed that he sees Aenle giving corpus massage.
“Victor was standing behind her while she was sitting in her office, and his hands were on her shoulder.”
Another witness who witnessed the behavior of Einel and Corpos is Jennifer Valdez, who previously worked as an executive secretary at the Sharif Office.
Valdez said she “thought something was going on romantically,” especially after she claimed that she hears Anneel saying “Te amo” during a phone call to Corpus.
Outside the court, after completing her testimony, Corbus doubled her decision to add Anil to her executive team.
She said that employees simply do not like him because he supported Corpus’s ideas for the modern police.
“I believed in my vision of the twenty -first century police and they did not like it,” she said in an interview. “I will not allow someone to tell me who I can have in my team, and stand on my decision.”
For a boycott, evidence that Corpus had a romantic relationship with Aenlle is an important element in the ability to remove it from his position because it helps to support the claim that it has misused the boycott cabinets.
With the passage of a measure A, the province was granted a temporary authority to remove Sharif for the “cause”, which includes the embezzlement of public funds or property, according to Article 412.5 of the Province Charter.
Once Corpus was sworn in in January 2023, Aenlle signed a contract to work in Corpus, where he will receive salaries up to $ 192,275.
She submitted multiple requests to raise his salary, one of which was granted when she managed to create a new position for him. In March, AenLle was upgraded to fill the new role, “The CEO of the Department”, or the Chief of Staff.
His new salary was listed at 246,979 dollars.
If Aenlle and Corpus already have an affair, then creating a new position to make approximately $ 250,000 can suggest that Corpus offended the spending of boycotting money.
In a statement in February, the action A, the Sherif County County Association was accused of conflicting interests in the employment of Ein.
“Christina Corpos has offended by employing a person who was in a relationship with a taxpayer of $ 246,000, which was not eligible for him,” said a spokesman for the Federation.
The procedures will continue on Thursday. Once concludes, Emerson will have up to 45 days to provide a written opinion to the Supervisors Council, which must contain a recommendation on whether there are reasons to remove Corpus.
