Fired Madison Cawthorn aide files workplace complaint against him

"He's just a bad person. He’s a habitual liar and he’s going to say and do anything he can to your face but behind your back he’s completely opposite," Lisa Wiggins said.

Saying in a leaked recording that “we all want the ultimate goal of him never serving again,” Lisa Wiggins, a former caseworker and campaign aide to Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-Henderson) has filed an employment-related campaign against the embattled congressman.

“What he’s done to me was illegal, morally wrong, you name it, it’s been done,” Wiggins said in a phone call to David Wheeler, co-founder of nonpartisan advocacy PAC American Muckrakers, more commonly known as Fire Madison Cawthorn.

“I had a conversation with Lisa a couple weeks ago to back up the notes I was taking, and I didn’t realize Lisa would provide me with so much information so I saved a copy,” Wheeler said.

North Carolina is a one-party state, meaning that recording telephone conversations doesn’t require the consent of all parties engaged in the communication.

Wiggins said in the call that she’d advance claims involving violations of the Family and Medical Leave Act, which entitles eligible employees to “unpaid, job-protected leave for specified family and medical reasons,” according to the U.S. Department of Labor.

In the call Wiggins said she was denied leave when her uncle passed away and her husband had a heart attack during the same week.
