Between August and October, they discovered 47.5 regular hours and 61.5 overtime hours of unac- counted time. Before resigning on Feb. 17, 1997, Alaimo earned $9 an hour for regular hours and $13.50 for overtime hours.

And that’s why he was chief dispatcher. We trusted him and he was doing a good job.” In addition to finding the pay- rollrecords did notadd up, Wagner would hear Alaimo dispatching for the county emergency system when he was signed in at BMCC. “What really bothered me was hearing his voice on the county radio when he was supposed to be working for us,” said Wagner, who did not want to comment more on the pending case.
