Erie firefighter seeks job back after setting fire
Erie's first female firefighter seeks job back after setting fire
Source - InYork.com
ERIE, Pa.—Erie's first female firefighter is fighting to get her job back, even though officials say she admitted setting her father's house on fire in a suicide attempt.
Details of Mary Wolski's firing had been confidential. They were made public after she appealed her firing in Erie County Court last week.
Fire Chief Tony Pol wrote in Wolski's April 2007 termination letter that setting the December 2006 fire made her unsuited to be a firefighter because she posed a danger to others and herself. She was hired in 1997.
Her lawyer, Paul Susko, says officials violated her constitutional rights and lacked evidence to uphold the firing.
Erie District Attorney Brad Foulk says based on the law and circumstances of the fire, no charges were filed.

Man, now thats dumb.
Would that make her the Kevorkian of Firefighters?==============
“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude than the animating contest of freedom, — go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!”
~Samuel Adams

Re: Erie firefighter seeks job back after setting fire
I'd like to see exactly what constitutional rights were violated. Must be the "right to be an arsonist and still maintain a job as a firefighter". What's next, daycare jobs for child molesters???

Uncle Eddie's Daycare. Hey, at least it would be the first daycare you might make your money back on.
(Yes, I know he's dead, it's a joke...)

So let me get this straight... she got fired as a firefighter for starting a fire.
Ohh, the irony!
