Ex-library assistant refutes county’s allegations

A Tulare County librar­ian assis­tant, who is at the cen­ter of story that has gained national atten­tion, flatly refuted a list of rea­sons for her dis­missal that was recently released by county offi­cials. “They’re all made up,” said Brenda Biester­feld of Wood­lake.
Biester­feld main­tains she was fired because she reported to Lind­say police that she observed a library patron allegedly view­ing child pornog­ra­phy on a library com­puter. She con­tends that she took the action despite being instructed not to by her super­vi­sor, Judi Hill.
