Mon. 10:51 a.m.: Engineer files defamation suit against planning commission director
WARREN – Trumbull County Engineer Randy Smith today filed a defamation lawsuit against the director of the Trumbull County Planning Commission and her wife.
In the suit, filed in Trumbull County Common Pleas Court, Smith claims commission Director Trish Nuskievicz and wife, Heidi Nuskievicz, have made malicious statements about him when she claimed Smith was bullying her and creating a hostile work environment.
Smith claims because Nuskievicz works for the planning commission and not the engineer’s office, he couldn’t have created a hostile work environment.
The lawsuit seeks financial compensation and a jury trial.
Also today, planning commission voted to hire an independent investigator to look into the claims.
