Former state employees' union president calls out current president over liquor store sting operation


CONCORD — The former president of the state employees’ union is urging the SEA Board of Directors to take action against incumbent union president Richard Gulla for his role in a sting operation designed to bring attention to high-volume sales at state liquor stores.

Diana Lacey, now a union member who works for the Department of Health and Human Services, wrote in a lengthy email dated June 15 that Gulla, an NHLC employoee, should recuse himself from any NHLC matters due to a personal conflict of interest.

She states that the NHLC tried on two occasions to fire Gulla long before the current controversy arose, but reached agreements with the union in both cases.

“I don’t think any person on Earth could be impartial about an organization that tried twice to fire them, and I do not think President Gulla can be either,” she wrote in the email to Gulla and the union board the day after a June 14 meeting of the union council.
