Andre Ginnane, who was fired about three months into the job, says she raised concerns about the 'neglected condition' of the nonprofit's Eastside clubhouse.
The Eastside Clubhouse at 3503 Martin Luther King Drive lacked"general cleanliness" and had various problems, she says. Those included a plumbing leak that caused raw sewage to mix with standing water under the building; a door in disrepair that allowed"vagrants and others" to access the building unchecked; and the condition of the gymnasium floor, which posed a"slip and fall hazard.
The"children who attended Eastside could feel that BGCSA was discriminating against them because of their race," she alleges.On Express-News.com:Under terms of the leases, the city maintains the exterior of the buildings and surrounding park land while the Boys & Girls Clubs maintain the buildings' interior, city spokeswoman Laura Mayes said in an email.
Voters last year approved $3.75 million for each location for structural assessment and improvements as part of the 2022-2027 bond program, she added., chairman the Boys & Girls Clubs and chief financial officer at Holt Cat. It was Hensley who informed Ginnane she was terminated on July 14, 2021, telling her she was"not a good fit," the suit says. He added that her termination was"not for cause because she had been doing a good job," the complaint adds. She received no disciplinary action or negative feedback from her superiors before her firing, she says..
That was especially important, she says, given the"negative publicity" it received from the rape of a 14-year-old African-American girl by a Boys & Girls Clubs employee. In 2019, Demetris Earl Keno Jr., then 23, picked up the girl from the Eastside clubhouse and raped her in his car in a nearby cul de sac, according to the warrant for his arrest.
