DUE PROCESS & OPTICS RE MAJ-GEN FORTIN REMOVAL

 Fortin's lawyer, Natalia Rodriguez, said in an email it is "clear" from the documents that the decision-makers were more concerned about the "political optics" of Fortin's situation than about ensuring a fair process.

"They were aware of the reputational damage that the decision to publicly remove Maj.-Gen. Fortin would have," she said.

"Despite showing an academic awareness of the impact the decision would have on Maj.-Gen. Fortin's life, the decision-makers nevertheless proceeded to publicly remove him without affording him any procedural safeguards."
