The outgoing METRO board's last act?

BEFORE MAYOR ANNISE PARKER'S METRO ANNOUNCEMENTS yesterday, the METRO board made one big decision: They voted in favor of paying CEO Frank Wilson's legal expenses related to the allegations about an improper relationship with a subordinate.

Previously, Wilson booster David Wolff announced that he had commissioned an "independent" investigation into the alleged improprieties.

Question: How independent will that investigation be if Wolff and his board have already decided, by virtue of covering Wilson's legal expenses, that Wilson is innocent? And if the guy was guilty of wrongdoing at the expense of the public, why should the public ultimately pick up his legal tab?
