Pierce County Hearing Officer Culpepper Fails to Sign the Non-Collusion Agreement in 2018 and 2022

In 2022, Ronald Culpepper failed to sign the Non-Collusion & Disbarment Affadavit
 in his contract role as the Pierce County Ethics Commission Hearing Officer, making his contract invalid and his ethics in question - can he not guarantee the people of Pierce County that he will not collude in his role?  He failed to sign this in both 2018 and 2022. Is this an intentional oversight? Culpepper is a retired judge and attorney who certainly knows contract law, so ignorance should be no defense.  Culpepper is supposed to set ethical standards for the county; how can he be a role model when he cannot execute a valid contract? What is he hiding from the people? Who is he colluding with?

In 2018, Ronald Culpepper failed to sign the Non-Collusion & Disbarment Affidavit for his role as the Pierce County Ethics Commission Hearing Officer, a required step for his position and contract role to be valid.

Dan Grimm, Pierce County Deputy Executive, Chief Operating Officer.    Schadenfreude means pleasure derived by someone from another person's misfortune. Here, a citizen raises concerns about conflicts within the county ethics commission, and Mr. Grimm admits that this misery gives him pleasure. This is the mind of a serial killer, not one who should be in public service. The e-mail was sent to  Jennifer Tetazin, Planning & Public Works Director, who has no business with the executive's office.  Pierce County Executive Deputy and COO Dan Grimm attests to getting satisfaction by misery of others misfor... by HB on Scribd Why does Ronald Culpepper need to talk to Dan Grimm ASAP since Culpepper is ONLY the Hearing Officer of the County Ethics Commission?  This means Culpepper is to report to the commission itself and not to anyone in the county government.  Did Culpepper breach co...

Resume for Ethics Commission Candidate Pierce County, Blake Patton

 Received this resume for the candidate for the Pierce County Ethics Commission.

Mr. Patton does not have th...
