Excerpts from the ChicagoSunTimes.com:
A veteran Chicago firefighter has been fired for brazenly and repeatedly having sex with a woman at a South Side firehouse while colleagues allegedly looked the other way.
The first of several shoes to drop in the Chicago Fire Department’s latest sex scandal targeted a firefighter assigned to Truck 24 on the far south side.
City hall refused to identify the firefighter, but said his former girlfriend not only filed the complaint with the Fire Department’s Bureau of Internal Affairs that triggered the investigation, but provided all of the supporting documents needed to nail the accused firefighter.
Sources said the woman provided text messages, emails and phone records that proved she was where she said she was and so was the firefighter. Armed with the evidence, internal affairs concluded that the firehouse was used repeatedly over a long period of time.
Two dozen firefighters were interviewed over the course of an investigation that dragged on for months. Sources said the now-fired firefighter filed a rebuttal to the charges that was rejected by the fire department.
Firehouse sex is strictly off-limits. In addition, no visitors are allowed in Chicago firehouses after 10 p.m.

Glorious carrer? I don’t think so, especially since this not a 1 time thing and put his co-workers in a very difficult position and will result in some punishments for his buddies.

Stupid way to end a glorious career.

Doesn’t matter if this woman is of that type of character.
There’s no excuse to break rules so punishment is justified.
Perhaps I’m too much of a moralist but if someone wants to engage in such behavior, why put themselves at such risk and why associate with people of questionable mental or moral standards?

He was obviously wrong and blatantly broke rules, but this is a cold hearted woman. No rape accusation, no assault allegation, just that they had sex and she was a willing participant. I wonder what he did to piss her off
