BREAKING: Complaints Filed Against Caputo Over Controversial Post

UPDATE: Multiple complaints have been lodged against Ward 3 Coun. Angela Caputo following her incendiary Facebook posts about Charlie Kirk. Caputo confirmed to SooToday that she was notified of the complaints on September 22, 2023. This urgent situation arises after her controversial remarks made shortly after Kirk’s assassination on September 10, 2023, in Orem, Utah.

Caputo’s post criticized those who advocate for Kirk, stating, “If you’re now using your voice to advocate for Charlie Kirk… you’re speaking for white supremacy, misogyny and racism.” The post has sparked outrage and led to a petition that has garnered nearly 2,500 signatures, demanding her removal from public office.

The integrity commissioner is now investigating these complaints. Caputo expressed her dismay, stating, “I have been notified by the integrity commissioner that complaints have been filed in regards to my Facebook post.” Her comments have raised significant concern among constituents and officials alike.

This developing story underscores the growing tensions surrounding political discourse and the implications of social media statements by public officials. As the integrity commissioner reviews the situation, many are watching closely to see how the city will respond to these serious allegations.

The outcome of this investigation could have lasting effects on Caputo’s political career and the community’s trust in its leaders.
