Former San Diego County Supervisor Nathan Fletcher had no involvement in the firing of a woman who accused him of sexual harassment and assault, an independent investigation has found.

The probe, released Jan. 26 by county’s Metropolitan Transit System (MTS), was prompted by a legal dispute involving Mr. Fletcher, a former MTS board chairman, and Grecia Figueroa, who sued him and the agency last year alleging he groped her and sexually harassed her by pursuing a relationship with her.
