Channel 9 has learned that three Orange County firefighters have lost their jobs for lying on their timesheets to rack up overtime.
Lt. Eddie Brown was one of those fired Tuesday night. He sometimes served as a spokesman for Orange County Fire Rescue.
Two other lieutenants were also fired; they were accused of falsifying their time sheets, misusing their county-owned vehicles and racking up overtime.
In all of the cases investigators with Orange County Fire Rescue compared the workers’ time sheets to the GPS tracking devices in their county vehicles.
They reported finding many instances of the firefighters reporting those times as work-related, when they were actually attending to personal business.
