Video Shows Councilwoman Making Obscene Gesture At Mahwah Mayor
WARNING: Graphic picture, video shows councilwoman making an obscene gesture and uttering an obscenity. Viewer discretion advised.
A video is now available [see below] showing Councilwoman H. Lisa DiGiulio drawing applause from residents last week after she flashed both middle fingers at the Mahwah mayor, and called him a “piece of [expletive]” during an intense township council meeting.
DiGiulio’s actions came after the council voted 6-0 Thursday to reinstate DPW Director Ed Sinclair who was fired by Mayor Bill Laforet after an anonymous letter claimed that DPW computers were being used to watch inappropriate material.
