5-27-25: Jennings Payout Breakdown
Tune in here to this ​Tuesday edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen!
Breaking Brett Jensen kicks off the show by talking about CMPD Chief Johnny Jennings’ $305,000 payout following his threat to sue the city of Charlotte, and reveals why he is getting that money. Jensen breaks this down based on categories such as legal costs, retroactive cost-of-living raise, a retention bonus, and more. Remember, all of this began because Chief Jennings alleged that former Charlotte City Councilman Tariq Bokhari damaged his reputation.
Later, Brett gives an update on the ongoing Charlotte City Councilwoman Tiawana Brown situation, where she and her two daughters are facing multiple felony fraud charges. Tonight is her first City Council meeting following her indictment.
In closing, Brett speaks with Representative Tim Moore about the “Big Beautiful Bill,” otherwise known as the budget.
