The case of David Grimaldi, the former chief administrative officer under New Castle County Executive Tom Gordon, just got more complicated.
The Wilmington News Journal reports that Grimaldi says he believes that a cache of secretly recorded telephone conversations with Gordon will show the County Executive to be an ethically bankrupt liar.
Grimald was fired last year by Gordon.
The former chief administrative officer claims that the recording will show Gordon using profanity as he talks with top officials about a range of issues during a two year period.
Grimaldi said he made the accusations because Gordon has begun a run for a fourth unprecedented term.
At one time the relationship between 38 year-old Grimaldi and the 63 year-old Gordon was described as father-son.
