FDNY No Nonsense Chief James Leonard removed from post due to alleged mistreatment Fire Comish's female "pet" staffer

Chief of Department James Leonard has been with the FDNY since 1979. 
He worked his way up through the ranks to get to his position.  This woman making the allegations has been in the department for two minutes and becomes first deputy commissioner? 

Gimmie a break! 

It's pretty obvious she she's a political hack who doesn't belong in that spot let alone the Fire department.    

NY Post reports the FDNY’s top uniformed member was removed from his post Thursday amid a probe into his alleged mistreatment of the department’s highest-ranking woman, the FDNY and sources said.

Chief of Department James Leonard was sidelined Thursday following a meeting with top FDNY brass at the department’s Brooklyn headquarters, sources said.

“While a review is conducted by the city’s Law Department concerning allegations of inappropriate behavior, Chief James Leonard has been relieved of his duties as Chief of Department effective today and placed on modified assignment,” the FDNY said in a statement.
