BCCJ Partner, Vanessa Cantley, In The News: PRP Fire Captain Terminated
Vanessa Cantley, partner at Bahe Cook Cantley & Jones, was in the news this week after she represented her client, Chris Glass, a PRP firefighter, in front of the PRP Fire Protection District Board. Mr. Glass filed a complaint alleging harassment and racial discrimination against his former captain, Robert "Danny" Heil. Heil's disciplinary hearing was held in front of the Board Wednesday evening, January 20. The Board listened to witness testimony and arguments from the attorneys. It was charged with deciding what discipline, if any, to impose upon Heil.
After listening to the evidence and deliberating for several hours, the Board found that Heil acted inappropriately and contrary to Board policy, and determined that he should be dismissed from the PRP Fire Protection District.
