After losing an election that cost her a job, it’s no wonder Pam Matranga isn’t too thrilled with the verdict:
Matranga called the verdict unfair and said that her former employee filed the lawsuit because she had refused to promote him.
“It was a circus for the last two years,” she said about the lawsuit, filed days before the 2012 election in which she was defeated after eight years as constable.
“It was a horrible, horrible time,” Matranga said. “Mr. Gist said he would make my life a living hell, and that’s what he did.”
Nevertheless, she is holding no grudges. “It’s over, we closed the door,” Matranga said. …
Matranga denied pulling her blouse over Gist’s head, but said she did it to other deputies. “If anybody was in a bad mood, like if Phil was in a bad mood, I would say, ‘Phil,’ or to anyone, ‘Do you need to go under the shirt?” she testified in a deposition.
Poor Pam. Her only regret in life must be that she can’t “go under the shirt” to comfort herself.
