BREAKING Harris Co. IT chief fired for training refusal but not sexual harassment allegations, report says
Eyewitness News has learned Retired Gen. Rick Noriega has been dismissed as Harris County director of information technology after he reportedly refused to take a mandatory sexual harassment training course.Sources told ABC13 on Tuesday that retired Gen. Rick Noriega was dismissed over allegations of sexual harassment.
It's important to note that Noriega was dismissed because he didn't complete mandatory training, not because of the original complaint against him, which was confirmed to Eyewitness News by the Harris County Administration Office. "I want every county employee - and their daughters and their grand daughters and their sisters - to know that sexual harassment and sexism will not be tolerated in Harris County," Hidalgo said. "We've come a long way from the 'old boys' club' way of doing things, but I'll tell you we're not done. In this courtroom, I've been groped...The kind of behavior this employee faced is behavior that I, for one, have been a victim of as county judge.
