Agreed on people talking without knowing whats going on. Gehart Empire Building? Geez louise! If someone wanted to build and empire they would NOT start in PWC….I mean, this County is not the creme de la creme by ANY standard! Greg L., you are becoming laughable with your outrageous accusations…Oliver Stone is calling…

Greg, As a victim in more ways than you or any other county resident of PWC I am surprised you think you can blow this out of proportion from the minimal information that has been released to the public to this point.

As an employee of the company that was in cohorts with Gupta and his goons, I lost my job and have been unemployed for over a month. You (if you are a Co resident even) lost approximately $10 ($4,000,000 / 400,000 residents) of your taxes YOU paid over the last 5 years. I lost MY ENTIRE SALARY FOR AN ENTIRE MONTH.

I along with other coworkers in this company and other peer workers within the county had no idea any of this was going on between PWC OIT and the contracted company. I believe Gehart and other county reps that have stated publicly that there wasn’t any more involvement outside the folks that have already been indicted. Gupta was a shizer and a con and people within OIT could tell he was a bad seed.

None of you know what you are talking about.

Gerhart should be fired simply for being incompetent.

And the FBI was probably brought in because Ham Sandwich didn’t win the CA position and we’re still stuck with that dolt Ebert.

Greg, I have no way to know if Gerhart is involved in the alleged corruption, but I would be shocked if he were. We have attended church together for more than a decade, and while he may be a man of the Left, I would dispute the blanket assertion that he is personally venal or corrupt.

And — in all seriousness, and without rancor or ill-will — you might want to consult with your attorney before publicly suggesting that he is.

Being good at your job and being a crook are not mutually exclusive. It’s a bit of a logic leap to connect the fact that he got one of the many “attaboy” awards (cheaper than giving them a raise) as somehow implicating Gerhart. According to your own reporting, he was just one member of a team to get the recognition.
