Five Florida Firefighters Disciplined

ASSOCIATED PRESS

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - Five firefighters have been disciplined for being involved in a photo shoot involving two women posing nude on a fire engine inside a station.

Fire Capt. Al Suarez, 44, was fired after being accused of organizing the photo shoot and trying to cover it up by asking witnesses to lie or not cooperate. Four other firefighters were suspended without pay.

The women began the photo shoot partially clothed, but they were soon wearing only high heels. Firefighters taped garbage bags over the windows, the investigation found.

Snapshots of the two women, who were strippers at a Tampa nude club, have appeared on Internet Web sites. After a six-week investigation, the five accused men allegedly confessed.

8. I believe that would be found in subsection (f) of paragraph 3
in Chapter 46 of the Florida statutes pertaining to firefighters.

It stems from a misprint - 'hookers and lads' should read 'hook and ladders'.

just kidding, of course.

In other words, I have no idea - guess there could be something in a conduct code which was violated.

13. Think of the reaction . . .
if you had brought them into the corporate office. This could have opened the state of Fla to multiple sexual harassment suits.
