Two More Employees Sue Hawaiian Gardens

Fred Licon 


BREAKING NEWS - Two more employers have served the City of Hawaiian Gardens for sexual harassment from Fred Licon, a supervisor in the Public Safety Department.

Licon was the alleged subject in a harassment claim a few weeks ago, and is a controversial character who often claims that the City nor its City Council will not touch him.  This is because Licon used funds from the Moskowitz Foundation (the Foundation behind the Gardens Casino) to fund the majority of the City Council’s campaigns. 

Licon has numerous accusations of sexual harassment and harassment over the years.

As union president, I take the philosophy of transparent local government to heart. Many Artesians have expressed to me the approval of not just the fight for the City in 2021, but also the reasons behind it - that employees were concerned about the City's finances and the ability of the City to serve its residents. Recent events have again raised concerns about transparency, particularly in light of the roles these two managers played in 2021, when the City was under a different city manager, whom employees contend ran the City like a mafia boss.
