Former Communications Director Wants Perjury Charges Filed Against Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti
08.02.2022 - 01:47 / deadline.com
Naomi Seligman, the former communications director to Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti, has filed a complaint with prosecutors claiming that Garcetti committed perjury when he denied under oath that he did not know about allegations of misconduct by a top aide and adviser.
The complaint comes as Garcetti is awaiting a confirmation vote by the U.S. Senate to be ambassador to India after his nomination cleared the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
The complaint — read it here — was filed by attorneys for Whistleblower Aid. The complaint also alleges that the mayor conspired to cover up complaints of sexual harassment against Rick Jacobs, who served as Garcetti’s deputy chief of staff and then worked on non profits connected to the mayor. He stepped down in October, 2020, but has denied the allegations.
Seligman contends that Garcetti lied in a deposition that was brought by Los Angeles police officer Matthew Garza, a member of Garcetti’s security detail. Garza claims that Garcetti witnessed some of Jacobs’ behavior but did not take steps to stop it. Jacobs called Garza’s lawsuit “pure fiction.”
Her complaint further alleges that Garcetti lied under oath during his confirmation hearing in December. Asked about the allegations by Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), Garcetti said that he “never witnessed nor was it brought to my attention the behavior that’s been alleged, and I want to assure you if it had been, I would have immediately taken action to stop that.”
Garcetti’s nomination passed out of the committee without objections from individual senators.
Seligman’s complaint was sent to the Justice Department, the California Attorney General and the Los Angeles District Attorney, asking them to take action. The materials also were sent
