Larry Scirotto – Why Was He Fired?

Fort Lauderdale city manager fired Larry Scirotto.

He assumed the office in mid-August 2021, and in November, the officials hired a law firm to investigate him.

Reportedly, a few of the employees filed several discrimination complaints against the then-police chief, which insinuated some investigations. There are also accusations of him refusing to hire white people and giving promotions based on a minority-first approach.

Larry unfairly focused on minority candidates for jobs as per the conclusion of the inspection.

The 48-year-old was relieved from his duties on Thursday. An inquiry discovered that he allegedly commented too white to the wall photos of the chief’s conference room and even mentioned something about changing it. Likewise, the investigations also found him asking which employee was blacker when promoting. However, he denied the claims in a recent interview.

Some even accuse him of working as a high school referee while serving as the police chief. Reportedly, the City paid him for unauthorized schedule adjustments, which was 55.50 hours in total. The details are in a memo from a former city auditor.

Larry has since hit back at the Florida city officials. In a recent interview, he defended the promotions he made of minority candidates, calling them exceptional and deserving.
