From the transcript
Yeah, so as Mr. Gates said, at this point it switches from the Assembly has made a vote based on, you know, allegations and policy to a legal proceeding. And at that point, this is where I think we've mentioned this in the last Assembly meeting, um, any investigation should really be limited to the prosecuting agency, which would be the Municipal Attorney's Office, uh, or anyone else charged with that investigation. And so at that point, members, you know, to get the accusation document together, of course there must be some suspicion of wrongdoing, right? And somebody has to gather information to build that accusation and include those allegations. And members, of course, are going to be doing that on their own, or the Board of Ethics, or community members bringing that, that to the Assembly or the Board of Ethics.
