Noted firebrand Joe Carollo got a boost from a federal appeals court for his whistleblower lawsuit against his ex-employers in Doral.
The onetime Miami mayor spent 15 mostly stormy months as Doral city manager. During this time he reported to the FBI, ethics regulators and local law enforcement his claims that Mayor Luigi Boria was engaged in misconduct. Carollo alleged, also publicly, that City Council member Sandra Ruiz helped Boria violate state campaign finance mandates and that Vice Mayor Christine Fraga aided the mayor in flouting financial disclosure laws.
