KATHY REITZEL SHOULD BE
HONORED AND REWARDED, NOT
PUNISHED. A GOOD START MIGHT
BE TO JUST OFFER TO GIVE HER
BACK HER JOB WITH BACK WAGES
by Dennis Reeves Cooper
Kathy Reitzel, the former
finance director for the Monroe
County School District— the
woman who was forced to
resign after she uncovered and
exposed the Acevedo scandal—
has retained an attorney
and says she will sue the school
board.
“We will sue under the
state whistleblower statute,”
Attorney Brandon Dimando
told Key West The Newspaper
Tuesday. “We are also exploring
other remedies.”
All we here at KWTN
can say about that is that it is
about time! Reitzel not only
uncovered and reported that
Monique Acevedo— the former
coordinator of the school
district’s adult education program
and the wife of former
School Superintendent Randy
Acevedo— had used her school
district credit card to make
thousands of dollars of personal
purchases— Reitzel also uncovered
and reported that Randy
Acevedo was trying to cover up
his wife’s illegal actions.
• Last February 12, Reitzel
gave Superintendent Acevedo
a 43-page report to support
suspicion that his wife had been
using her district credit card for
personal purchases.
