Mayor Karen Bass allegedly went scorched earth on the LAFD Union President — launching a retaliation campaign after he publicly blasted the city’s lack of resources during the devastating Los Angeles wildfires, according to a new lawsuit. Freddy Escobar, a 36-year veteran of the LAFD and the elected president of United Firefighters of Los Angeles Local 112 (UFLAC), filed the federal lawsuit against Bass and the City of Los Angeles Tuesday. Escobar claims the mayor and her senior staff directed fire department officials to issue misleading statements to the media suggesting he was under scrutiny for overtime abuses — part of what the complaint describes as a coordinated effort to silence his criticism of Bass and the fire budget.
