San Bernardino Motive Speculation

Andrew Lamberto was the HR director of San Bernardino county, making $340K in compensation. Six months ago he was caught in a prostitution sting. The county CEO knew but kept it quiet. When it was recently revealed, the county decided to fire him and kept him on salary until May 2016. This was picked up by the right wing blogosphere: liberal hispanic bloated public sector sex scandal rich guy. He was fired a couple weeks ago but of course after a long career was invited to the county's December 2nd Holiday Party.
