**Dear Editor,**

In response to “retired former Mayor” Kevin McKeown’s [letter](https://smdp.com/2024/06/21/letter-91/?ref=smdp.com) of June 21, attacking City Council member Christina Parra, if he had watched the entire Council discussion, he would know that she advocated for establishing policies, procedures, and penalties *before* embarking on an investigation of Council closed session leaks. She *didn't* say not to investigate.

Instead, McKeown seems to have cherry picked comments from the newspaper coverage and used those to malign a honorable sitting Council member, one who *didn't* up and resign from her elected position mid-term, with no explanation to voters. Perhaps his use of the phrase “disturbing and embarrassing” was applied to the wrong person.
