CHAIR: A completely unrelated issue to your nomination? <br />LEE: It's totally unrelated to my nomination. <br />CHAIR: This was on the November 4 1 council meeting, right? <br />LEE: Yes. Yes, sir. <br />CHAIR: Board members, do you have any questions for Mr. Lee? <br />HENRICKS: Yes. Mr. Lee, you said that she did call you a liar, using that word <br />specifically, is that correct? <br />LEE: Yes. <br />HENRICKS: All right. You say this was not on the video? <br />LEE: No. I watched the video after, and it's not <br />HENRICKS: --Do you know any reason why it wasn't on the video? <br />LEE: Well, the council members that were present were in front of me, but she was in <br />Kona. So it may not have been captured on the video. But my response is when she <br />said it, my response is clear into the microphone, you know, I'm not a liar. <br />HENRICKS: Well, the reason I question it is because that's a loaded word, you see. And <br />I'm going to center in on that word, because and as the council chairman or anybody <br />here would tell you, this is a very subjective type of call. I mean, sometimes you have a <br />give - and -take, and sometimes you have to call them as being disrespectful or not <br />disrespectful. It's very subjective. So when someone uses a loaded word, we'd like to <br />look at that word and see if that's proper or not. So that's very important, that that word <br />be in there. Is there anybody else hear that heard her call you that that you could <br />bring forward or have a statement submitted to the council? <br />LEE: Well, I have two people here, but I didn't ask them specifically if they heard that <br />word used. <br />HENRICKS: Okay, can you get anything for us that would show that she said this <br />actually to you, called you that word? <br />LEE: Okay, yes. <br />HENRICKS: Okay, if you can get me something like that, or get the I think <br />that would be very important to us, you understand? <br />LEE: Okay. <br />3 <br />
