TUCSON, Ariz. — The City Council has agreed to pay $125,000 to settle a sexual harassment claim filed by a former Tucson Fire Department paramedic.
Paramedic firefighter Cody Jenkins filed a $500,000 claim against the city in February, alleging he was “physically and sexually assaulted … multiple times” by former TFD Capt. Roger Sloan Tamietti on Nov. 9.
Jenkins’ claim contends Tamietti harassed him on three occasions that day. The first incident occurred when Tamietti “forcibly humped and ground” against Jenkins while holding him against a couch. Later that day, Jenkins said Tamietti swatted him on his buttocks after a shower.
