"On Aug. 5, I met with the Mayor and John Hamilton, at the Mayor's office and at his request. During that meeting, I discussed with him information that I had obtained as part of my research into the activities of my former employee, Mike Culbreath. Since that meeting, I have filed a civil action against Mr. Culbreath and other individuals and entities he is associated with, for actions Mr. Culbreath took while working for me. Neither the City of Huntsville nor any City employee is a defendant in that lawsuit. It is confusing to me that the Mayor views my lawsuit against my former employee as retaliation against the City, when neither the City nor any City official is a party to that lawsuit. I look forward to prosecuting my lawsuit against Mr. Culbreath and the other defendants and I welcome and invite any law enforcement officials to examine every aspect of this situation."
