Judge dismisses Coral Gables Mayor Vince Lago’s defamation lawsuit
Posted by Admin on Aug 19, 2024 | 0 commentsA county judge last week dismissed the defamation lawsuit filed by Coral Gables Mayor Vince Lago against Actualidad Media Group for a Spanish-language morning radio broadcast where veteran journalist Roberto Rodriguez Tejera mentioned an investigation by the Miami-Dade Commission on Ethics and Public Trust into the mayor’s lack of truthfulness regarding his conflict of interests in the annexation of Little Gables.
The ruling is important because it sends a clear message to Lago that he cannot silence his critics.
