Councilman Andy King accused again of harassment

City Councilman Andy King is facing more harassment allegations.
The City Council’s Committee on Standards and Ethics listed the allegations against the sitting council member Monday, which include sexual and other harassment accusations.
King was forced to take sensitivity training last year following different accusations of a similar nature, which cost the taxpayers $3,500.
But the new charges also involve his wife, Neva Shillingford-King. The City Council confirmed she is accused of harassing one of King's staffers. The Council committee also claims Andy King allowed an aide with a high enough position to repeatedly threaten a subordinate with violence during office and work functions — one time following through with those threats.
The committee also said King has refused to "cooperate with the investigation and only made himself available for five minutes to discuss a separate, but related investigation, into one of his staff members."
The City Council will now review the report and pursue an additional investigation as necessary. Then they say they will recommend charges to the committee as they see fit.
Councilman King has not returned News 12’s calls to comment.
