After all Póns has been through, I certainly hope he brings a lawsuit. So many people had to be complicit in this for Hanna to get away with it. I also heard Gwen Graham was very involved in the election and the notebook. She refused to answer Any questions on it when that Tampa paper interviewed her. She certainly does not need to be governor.

In reply to Todd Gulledge. Todd, nothing listed in the Hank Coxe report is an allegation. Mr. Coxe interviewed Mr. Hanna. Mr. Hanna admitted he had no knowledge of wrongdoing. Mr. Hanna admitted he wrote the summaries for each section which were written to be misleading and incorrect. Mr. Hanna admitted he circulated the notebook. Mr. Hanna promoted 5 people shortly after he was placed in office to Associate Superintendent positions without an interview process, the same for Ms. Bell and Ms. Kraul. Mr Hanna is now signing construction contracts. Mr. Weldon contributed to Mr. Hanna's campaign, his company now has a large contract and from what I can tell he is over budget and behind. What aspect of the evidence do you find troubling?

We have, obviously, had our own witch hunt going on right here in Tallahassee! It appears that the disgruntled former principal of Leon High School, Rocky Hanna created his own “notebook of revenge,” to destroy the career of Jackie Pons as well ruin his personal life! It takes an evil heart full of hate and revenge to do what Hanna apparently did to Pons! Do hope he will be a one term school superintendent as he deserves a dose of his own medicine!

Rocky, Rocky, Rocky we knew pay for play was alive and well when you promoted almost immediately 5 staff to Assistant Superintendents, then also promoting Shelly Bell and Sue Kraul without interviews. Now construction contracts to buddies, while you sign off on the contracts. Can we please have an investigation? But Rocky, I will limit my power of the pen to a webpage, I will not pull together innuendo, write misleading summaries and get with my attorney buddy to seek out a specific FBI agent, nor will I ask a former congressperson to get involved behind the scenes.

Rickarks High School, a multi-million dollar contract that went to his friend Casey Weldon, Allstate Construction. I wonder how much money Casey gave Hanna?

In reply to alex. If my recollection is correct at no point did Jeff Wallin or anyone from his law firm ever stand up and say they reviewed every contract and they were legal. The Authority for the school system to enter into a construction contract rests with the superintendent's recommendation to the board the board's attorney review and acknowledgement that the terms of the contract are proper. Rocky Hanna misued the system and became a hero unto himself while at the same time he was out to ruin the lives and livelihood of several people in the school district.

In reply to Al. You make a good point Al. The Ausley Law Firm, where Jeff Wahlen works did not like Jackie Pons. They have hired Pam Marsh, former US District Attorney, who was over the FBI when Hanna sent the book to the FBI. She was an Obama appointee and left when Trump was elected. The Ausley Law firm represents the city, school board and the Democrat. Marsh is representing the City in their FBI case. Pons never stood a chance with the school board legal team. Hanna knew this and used it to run his political scam. He will get away with it because he is a Leon High School graduate. Gwen Graham and her dad will see to it. Just my opinion as a nobody.

In reply to AD.

Please read the report by the attorney hired by the school board Hank Coxe. Serch for DOCUMENTS: Bedell Law Firm Report Leon County Schools

Almost three ago Hank Coxe and and attorney Meyer detailed that the information in the notebook and the written summaries (Hanna admitted he wrote the summaries in each section) were misleading pieced together to give the appearance of something illegal. Rocky Hanna admitted he had no knowledge of any wrongdoing! By the way guess who is now Superintendent and signing off on construction contracts….Ask Rocky how far behind and over budget is Rickards High School?
