Let's "sideline" them for violating an FDNY protocol that did not exist before the August 18, 2007 fire: Introduction

INTRODUCTION 

Let's "sideline" them for violating an FDNY protocol that did not exist before the tragic August 18, 2007 fire! 

It's unconscionable!

Three innocent, diligent and dedicated fire officers were "sidelined" for not inspecting the uber-toxic Deutche Bank Building.  We know that FDNY did not supply the local firehouse with the means to conduct inspections of toxic buildings.  Yet, before the tragic August 18, 2007 fire, not only did FDNY fail to supply the local firehouse with the means to inspect a toxic building, FDNY did not supply them with a protocol telling the local firehouse how to do toxic building inspections. Why did FDNY not supply the local firehouse with a toxic building inspection protocol?  It did not exist. Let me repeat that: it did not exist.  FDNY had not yet created it. How absurd is that? Toxic buildings existed but an FDNY protocol to inspect them did not! It's unconscionable! It was above the rank of captain of the local firehouse to create such a protocol. It was above the rank of Battalion Chief and Division Chief. Such a protocol had to comply with OSHA regulations as made applicable by NYS PESH.  Creating such a protocol was the responsibility of the very top of FDNY. So, if anyone did not do their job - and keep in mind that  FreePetey maintains that inspections of the Deutsche Bank Building was not the responsibility of FDNY - it's the very top of FDNY who did not do their job not not the bottom.   The top of FDNY f*!@ed up so the top of FDNY - to divert attention away from themselves - scapegoats three innocent, diligent and dedicated fire officers.

It's unconscionable!

 

FreePetey has been supplied with tangible evidence - a trail of email messages - that conclusively shows that FDNY did not know how to inspect toxic buildings before the tragic August 18, 2007 fire. Only after the tragic August 18, 2007 fire, did FDNY begin to try to figure out how to inspect toxic buildings.

It's unconscionable!

Watch this blog as these email messages appear for the record.
