Employees who left the Bexar County DA's Office described a “hostile and toxic” work environment hampered by harassment and a lack of communication and accountability, according to resignation letters and exit interviews obtained by KSAT Investigates.
KSAT Investigates examined a total of more than 100 resignation letters and exit interviews submitted by former employees of the Bexar County District Attorney's Office.
Reached by phone, Judge Saenz told KSAT she learned a lot while working for the DA’s office but “what my statement says is what happened.”She said she explained her concerns to Gonzales during an in-person exit interview with him as well. Prosecutor Dawn McCraw stands next to Bexar County District Attorney Joe Gonzales after a sentencing hearing for Michelle Barrientes Vela.
“The county and DA’s office is laden with ‘Mean Girl Behavior’ also known as Relational Aggression which is Bullying designed to harm social relationships and the status of individuals. This behavior was acceptable by management and management participated in this behavior,” the employee wrote. An advocate who worked for the DA’s office since 2015 wrote that training on leadership should be offered so there could be better management within the agency.
