Mayor Berke spokesperson responds to Bobby Stone allegations

CHATTANOOGA (WDEF) – Mayor Andy Berke isn’t commenting publicly to allegations leveled on Friday by Bobby Stone.

But Marissa Bell, Communications Coordinator for the City of Chattanooga, offered this statement.

“Mayor Berke has already stated that all allegations made by Mr. Stone are absolutely false. No information we received today changes the previous statements we have made.

The Mayor’s Office does not get involved in any police investigations. Stacy Richardson did not influence this investigation and only came to pick up Lacie Stone from the Fletcher’s home.

Mayor Berke has absolute confidence that the Chattanooga Police Department conducted the investigation on their own and without influence from the Mayor’s Office, the Chief of Police’s Office, or anyone else.”

The District Attorney General told the court he wanted to drop the domestic assault charges against Bobby Stone against his wife, Lacie, who is a top adviser to the mayor.

But afterwards, Bobby Stone leveled more accusations against his wife, the Mayor and the Police Chief.
