Texas sheriff's lieutenant, who called the Capitol riot one of the best days of her life, fired
ATexas sheriff's lieutenant who was at the Capitol on January 6 and called the insurrection one of the best days of her life has been fired, local news outlet KSAT12 reported.
Bexar County Sheriff's Office lieutenant Lt. Roxanne Mathai, 47, was placed on administrative leave in January after she posted multiple photos to Facebook near the US Capitol on January 6, KSAT reported.
Sheriff Javier Salazar officially fired Mathai in June, but she appealed his decision, according to KSAT. When the case was brought before an arbitrator, she argued that she was present for a historic event and was wrongfully terminated.
Since Mathai said she didn't enter the Capitol, she also argued that she was not involved in the siege, local CBS affiliate KENS5 reported.
Salazar called her defense "ridiculous" in an interview with KSAT on Monday.
