Porn at Public Works

The morning of July 6, 2007, it was the start of my 2nd week at Okmulgee Public works. I was cleaning up the Traffic Control Office. I found a box of porn magazines under the desk. I went to report the box to the Property Maintenance Supervisor Ricky Pearson. Ricky told me that the box had been there for years, not to worry about them, just leave them. I told Ricky I did not want the magazines in my office, there was no place for them at work and if need be, I’ll report the magazines to Rick Miller to get the removed.
Ricky said they would be removed by the end of the day.
About 4:30pm that day Ricky Pearson went home, his Magazines were still in my desk. I went to talk with Rick Miller. He said he would have Ricky remove the magazines. He asked me to give him a week to find a way to get this done without disclosing the fact that I reported the magazines.
A week later the Magazines were still under the desk. Rick Miller and I then took the magazines and placed them in the dumpster behind City Hall. A few weeks later word got out that I had the Magazines thrown away. Jimmy one the Maintenance workers asked me why I threw them away, he would have moved them to his office, he said that they needed something to read in the winter when things slow down.
