Providence’s city clerk has been embroiled in controversy for months amid complaints from his deputy clerks about his behavior.
Two investigations came to conflicting conclusions, and the Providence City Council will host its first-ever hearing to potentially remove a public official later this month.
Target 12 has been reporting on the controversy since July. In this episode of Pulse of Providence, Shawn Selleck tells his side of the story, accusing Council President John Igliozzi of a political power play to install a new city clerk.
Following that interview, Igliozzi responds to Selleck's claims and calls the allegations against him "horrific."
