A video posted on social media prompted the city to investigate claims
A month-long investigation into a Coronado city official came to an end Thursday when he resigned after a video surfaced on social media alleging he and his wife made racist comments during an argument in January.
Miller lives in Temecula and had worked for the city of Coronado since 2009, according to his LinkedIn page. He was promoted to his current position in 2015 and earned nearly $205,000 in 2020, receiving a total of more than $272,000 in pay and benefits, according to Transparent California. A social media post alleged the couple made racist statements to someone who is Asian before the video started, including that Chinese people are spreading COVID-19. The person who filmed the video has not been identified.
Immediately following the incident, Coronado announced that it had placed an employee on administrative leave pending an independent investigation. Friend did not name Miller in her initial statement.
