Illegal Recording
October 26th, 2011 by flanewsA former member of Lt. Governor Jennifer Carroll’s communications team is being charged with a felony for illegally recording a conversation in the state capitol. Carletha Cole, a former spokeswoman for Carroll turned herself in Tuesday. Her charges stem from an audio recording of a conversation between Cole and Carroll’s chief of staff. State Attorney Willie Meggs is reviewing the case.
“They were two people having a conversation, one knows they are recording it, the other one does not and when you find out you’ve been recorded secretly and you report it… that’s a crime,” said Meggs
In the recording the chief of staff can be heard saying in a whisper that Governor Rick Scott isn’t leading.
