Greenwich Board Of Education Hands Over Byrne Memos In An Effort To Avoid A Lawsuit From The State of Connecticut - Freedom of Information Commission
Sidney, Sidney, Sidney.......
If Greenwich Roundup said it once he must have said it a hundred times.
"The Coverup Is Always Worse Than The Crime"
Dr Frued and a bunch of failed administrators have been saying that there was nothing unusual with Anthony Byrnes departure.
Mr. Byrne simply decided to voluntarily go in administrative leave for three months and then retire early from the Greenwich Public School System.
Dr. Freud wants everyone to believe that everything was done in an orderly and smooth fashion and Mr. Byrne gave proper notice to him.
But Susan Wallerstein's July 4th memos seem it indicate that the were not so smooth and planned out in advance.
As you can see from the first memo, on January 4th at 3:06 in the after noon Ms. Wallerstein informs all school principals and the BOE cabinet only that ....
"...Byrne, will not be in this week."
There is nothing mentioned about Byrne applying and going onto three months of administrative leave with $30,000 in pay.
Apparently on January 4th, no deal had yet been made concerning Mr. Byrnes $30,000 Taxpayer funded vacation.
Then just a little before midnight, Ms. Wallerstien appears to get nervous and fires off an email directing John Frangione to tell the head custodians that Anthony Byrne would not be showing up for work the next morning.
It looks that Anthony Byrne did not have any long sad goodbyes with his longtime maintenance coworkers....
Susan Wallerstein's late night memo was also carbon copied to Gina Williams who fought touth and nail trying to prevent the email's release to Greenwich Roundup.
If Gina Williams Was Listed In The Anthony Byrne Email, Should She Have Been Handling The FIO Request Concerning It's Release.
Greenwich BOE Staffers Tell Greenwich Roundup That Gina Williams Rarely Handles FOI Requests, If She She Even Handles Them At All.
Maybe, Greenwich Roundup Should put a FIO request in for Anthony Byrne's resignation letter, because we all know that Greenwich Time Cub Reporter Colin "THE BOE BROWN NOSE" Gustafson wont have the journalistic balls to follow the paper trail in this coverup.
It might be interesting to see what it Anthony Byrn's resignation letter says.
Five will get you ten that Byrne's resignation letter and HR forms applying for administrative leave were not submitted before January 4th.

He Said:
“It has come to my attention that the news media has been provided with false and/or misleading information regarding Anthony Byrne’s employment status with the board,” Dr. Freund said in his statement. “Mr. Byrne is currently on leave pending a voluntary retirement when he reaches eligibility effective April 1, 2010. Mr. Byrne has not been terminated and there has been no finding that he engaged in any misconduct in the course of his employment by the board.”
She Said:
According to district Director of Communications Kim Eves, Mr. Byrne was placed on leave with pay Jan. 4.
He Clamed Up:
Asked why he was placed on leave, Dr. Freund said he couldn’t comment because it is a personnel matter......
