The attorney general’s office has asked that a whistle-blower complaint filed by state real estate division director Erin Toll be dismissed, and information obtained Tuesday by The Denver Post called into question a key element of the embattled regulator’s complaint.
In a filing with the State Personnel Board last week, Toll cast her involuntary, paid leave and possible termination as punishment for publicly revealing that state Sen. Ted Harvey, R-Highlands Ranch, and his employer, American Home Funding, were under investigation by her office. She also chastised her boss, Department of Regulatory Agencies director Barbara Kelley, for quashing the investigation into Harvey’s firm.
