It came to light in a letter sent to city officials by Attorney Brandon Voelker, notifying the London leaders that he plans to represent the two former housing authority members if the city council doesn’t intervene.
His clients, Stephanie Newsome and Bethani Smith, claim they received termination letters in October 2023 from a London public safety officer and were told to “just do as he says, and you won’t have any issues.” They were later allegedly told by Weddle that he was “not dicking around.”
It further claims that Weddle gained control of the London Housing Authority and removed board members without proper clearance, bypassing state law that requires approval from the city council.
Voelker accused Weddle of abusing power, threatening city employees, and violating state and federal housing regulations.
This isn’t Weddle’s first run-in with Voelker. He represents two clients who have filed defamation lawsuits, which name the mayor, in February.
