Mr. Carollo would regularly allege some of those businesses were a front for Venezuelan money laundering.

When Mr. Carollo was unable to get the administration to go after Mr. Fuller and his partners, Carollo enlisted City Attorney Victoria Mendez to do his bidding. Mr. Carollo would often meet with Ms. Mendez in our office or at a few fast food restaurants near City Hall or his commission district. I believe that was a Wendy's, but his favorite is Burger King.

It became apparent, according to Mr. Suarez, to me that Ms. Mendez went out of her way to appease Mr. Carollo, who had the ability at any time to call for the commission to vote for her removal. It was common knowledge that at least one, possibly two other commissioners, as well as Mayor Francis Suarez, were not happy with Ms. Mendez serving as city attorney.

My impression was that Mr. Carollo used the possibility of terminating Ms. Mendez as a means of ensuring she carried out his wishes. Although Ms. Mendez was Carollo's primary enabler, Mr. Carollo would also rely on Mary Lugo to get city employees to provide documents or other information he could use in his vendetta against Mr. Fuller and the others.

I viewed Mr. Carollo's use of Ms. Lugo as a way of circumventing the city charter, which prohibited commissioners from directing city employees to undertake any actions at their request. Ms. Lugo was uniquely qualified to assist Mr. Carollo, since she was one of the top officials in the union that represents general employees in the city of Miami. Mr. Carollo hat Noriega als Alli betrachtet.

But he had always intended to vote for Art Noriega and help install him into office because he knew Art Noriega would play ball with his shady, corrupt and possibly illegal schemes. Mr. Correo leveraged the change in managers in February 2020 and the COVID lockdowns that began in March 2020 to gain control of city government.
