新泽西州州长米基·谢瑞尔周四要求副州长戴尔·卡尔德韦尔在周五前辞职2。此前一项伦理调查发现卡尔德韦尔存在"严重、反复"的违规行为1,包括违反州工作场所反歧视政策2。
调查指控内容涵盖多个方面2。卡尔德韦尔被指对女性工作人员进行不当言论和行为,包括在一名员工的朋友拒绝其示好后说"你们年轻女性在寻找年轻的精子"2。调查还指控他为约会对象争取晋升机会,以及携带个人客人参加收费活动而未支付费用2。针对这些指控,卡尔德韦尔的律师予以否认,并称调查程序不公正2。
州长表示这些伦理失误违反了政府行政标准,代表了行为模式的问题2。州长谢瑞尔在内部调查启动后曾让卡尔德韦尔代理州长18天1。
New Jersey Governor Sheila Murphy called on Lieutenant Governor Dale Caldwell to resign by Friday following an ethics investigation that found him in violation of state workplace policies2. The investigation report, released on Wednesday, determined that Caldwell had breached the state's anti-discrimination workplace policy through a pattern of misconduct2.
The investigation uncovered multiple instances of alleged wrongdoing by Caldwell2. He was accused of making inappropriate remarks and engaging in improper conduct toward female staff members, including a comment to a woman whose friend he had pursued romantically: "You young women are looking for young sperm"2. Additionally, Caldwell was found to have sought promotions for state employees he was dating and to have brought personal guests to paid events without covering their costs2. Governor Murphy characterized these ethical lapses as violations of governmental standards of conduct and indicative of a problematic pattern of behavior2.
Prior to issuing her resignation demand, Murphy had assigned Caldwell to serve as acting governor for eighteen days while the internal inquiry was underway1. Caldwell's legal representative has denied the allegations and disputed the fairness of the investigation process2.
