Dr. McNeil has retained an attorney and has been instructed to get as much publicity as possible in the hope that the county will settle with very little "bad" press .
The public will probably never know the details but Dr. McNeil was NOT fired because of her stated reasons. There is a LOT more to it than that. HR and county attorneys were consulted before she was fired.
Having said that, I actually really like Jean and I hope that the person she used to be is still in there somewhere because if what I have heard is right, there is no way she will win ANY lawsuit against her former employer.
