FRENCH CAMP (CBS13) — Another woman has come forward telling CBS13 how she had sex with a local firefighter in the French Camp fire station while he was on duty.

It’s not he first time we’ve heard a story like this about this firefighter, and he still has his job.

Brandon Wilson was reinstated just last week. But some people say that reinstating Brandon Wilson to protect the people of French Camp is a big mistake.

Last week a confidential investigation regarding internal accusations against the French Camp Fire District brought the story to light. Brandon Wilson is accused of having sex in an engine while on the clock.

“I think he’s disgusting, he’s a complete womanizer,” said the woman who claims had sex with Wilson.

Another woman is coming forward saying she too was involved with Wilson while he was supposed to be working. She asked us to protect her identity

“I knew it was wrong. I shouldn’t have done it, but he knows the ropes,” she said.

She says Wilson was a master at the game; always the same, telling this and other women his children belonged to his sister who was in prison and that he was given custody.

“That alone right there shows you what a disgusting person that is. You’re not even claiming your own children to try and get what you want. What does that say about you?” she said.

When asked if this might be a case of a jilted lover angry over the end of the relationship, the woman says that’s not the reason because she wasn’t the only one.

“It’s not like it was just me. He did this to numerous people. The fact that he did that is nothing against that it didn’t end well,” she said. “The fact that his co-workers and board members knew all of these problems and the fact that they voted to have him back in there…I mean, who are you thinking of? You’re not thinking of the community in any way.”

I did speak with a member of the district board who said they were not commenting on the new allegations in terms of when Wilson will begin work. We were told that is being worked out with the Chief Paul Tualla.

We tried again today to reach Brandon Wilson for comment, but none of our calls were returned.

French Camp Firefighter Facing More Allegations Of Sex At Fire Station

Yes, this is outrageous, why does this firefighter discriminate and only do skanky French Camp hoes? After a thorough medical exam he needs to come up to El Dorado Hills and service all the rich, married women, who can appropriately reward him for his services.

Val E. Forge

Why is her identity hidden? I thought that the Constitution specifically states in the 5th Amendment that “…the accused shall have the right…to be confronted with the witnesses against him.”

On those grounds alone the case should be dismissed.

Let the truth be told

How about on the grounds that there is no relevence to this happening currently? Not now, and certainly not 3-4 years ago. Does anyone watching these stories actually believe them? Do you not see the millions of loopholes and unanswered issues? Funny how the reporter strays away from the obvious issues at hand in that department. But I guess they are not newsworthy enough. Forget about fair and honest journalism.
Duh

Her identity would be open in COURT, not on the news.
Let the Truth be Told

@Duh Oh ok, I guess that goes right back to anyone can accuse anybody of anything at anytime. You can go on tv and be a moron but cover your face. When in there even grounds for this to go to court? He didn’t rape or assault her as we all heard. Don’t you think there are better and bigger things in the world to be worried about than this? I’m sure after all this aired he won’t ever do that again!!!!

steve morrison

Fire his ass and hire a real man to do the job! With all the people out of work, and you have this / professional boinking. no payed leave no suspension. no pension. no benefits. no Excuses

get real

You dont fire someone that hasn’t had anything proven against him. Anyone can say anything at anytime, whether it’s true or not. It’s awfully presumptuous to assume that there isn’t more to the story than what channel 13 shows- didn’t your parents ever tell you not to believe everything you see on TV?

Let the truth be told

Why did the woman hide her identity?? What is there to hide if you VOLUNTARILY had sex, and then VOLUNTARILY went on TV to talk about it? Do you try and hide yourself because you are a big, fat liar, and even though your face was blurred and voice disguised people that know you figured out immediately who you were? And that this is not a NEW accusation? And nothing was mentioned about her profession was there? She could be a teacher, a paramedic, work with kids…but she doesn’t go into that detail about herself so that the same exact accusations could be slung around about her and her “morals”. And the excuse of being young and “supposedly” manipulated? If you were over 18 then you have no excuse. What a fool. Who goes on national TV and admits that they are dumb. You should be ashamed of yourself and be trying to keep it on the DL that you did something that stupid, not broadcast it to the world. The other subject is the fact she has no right bringing a persons children into this. How does she know they didn’t see this on the news and are very upset about it? That was irrelevent and unneccessary and extremely wrong and uncaring about the feelings of children that have NOTHING to do with this in any way shape or form. SO obviously she is doing this for a reason- she is helping her friends with their personal vendetta against Mr. Wilson. French Camp is a very small town and everyone knows eachother. If she was so “easily manipulated” into having sex at the fire station, why wouldn’t she be just as easily manipulated by her supposed “friends” to go this far? They are all not the sharpest tools in the shed. Good luck and I hope your stupidity follows you forever.

asdf

always blame the woman, but firemen are supposed to be ready to go when in the fire station, they arent supposed to be half way intop a bimbo…… thats a waste of all our taxopayer money.
Rose Martin

maybe she is marred lmao
DB

The whole 2nd part of your paragraph explains why she hid her identity. You call her dumb, shameful, and seemed to be willing to trash her if you knew the profession that she was in. There seems to be a pattern here and that calls into question why the department would reinstate him after the latest set of allegations. Perhaps it would be time for a career change for him, at the very least away from the firehouse.

Common sense- use it

What you said makes no sense. The point is she is willing to say that because he is a firefighter his choice to have sex makes him awful, and because we have no idea what her profession is, the same thing could be said about her. It’s easy to completely bash someone when you only know one side of the story and her doing this and going on tv was completely unnecessary and also irrelevant. Go to the board, the chief, why tv??
DB

How does it not make sense Common? Truth spent most of his paragraph ripping this woman apart along with many others on this board. What do you think her life would be like if her name was known, especially since French Camp is pretty small? Maybe she has ulterior motives, maybe she doesn’t. But it still speaks to a pattern of behavior by this firefighter that does not reflect well on him or the department. By the way, Sac Metro went through a similar episode a few years back regarding women riding along on the trucks and if I remember right, using the truck to pick up women at clubs. Those firefighters were fired.

http://www.kcra.com/news/3804639/detail.html
Common sense- use it

DB- just because this person has come forward doesn’t mean it’s a pattern. How do you know this person wasn’t the original accuser? You don’t. You nor I know details, only what the news chooses to tell us. And there was zero mention of the board as you state they are being “ripped” in the comment by Truth. None. All I am saying is there is a lot more to this than we know and everyone is so quick to judge the guy, there was no wrong found, he’s getting his job back. And French Camp isn’t even remotely on the same scale as Sac Metro.
DB

Common, the article states “another woman” so there are at least 2 woman who have accused this firefighter of this behavior. I am in a human resources position and I can tell you that in the private sector there would be a zero tolerance policy on this kind of stuff, consensual or otherwise. And what makes French Camp different from Sacramento other than population? The same employment laws would apply. You are right, there are 2 sides to every story and the news has not produced his side. However, we will not get it from the board as they consider this a personnel matter which it is and the firefighter as yet is not talking. I hope at the very least there is some type of reinstatement with probation so that this behavior can be monitored.
CA_MC

DB- There are several people trying to get the other side of the story but are being completely ignored by channel 13. And being in an HR position you know full well that anyone can accuse anyone of anything at anytime and it HAS to be investigated. Period. Whether it’s true or false. The fact that he was reinstated because the accusations were found to be unsubstantiated says that the accusor(s): A. did not cooperate with the investigation so that proper discipline could take place, or B. they were not telling the truth. This department would be an HR directors nightmare. There is so much more to this story than is being put out there and it’s really unfortunate. Hopefully karma comes back to haunt the ones who really deserve it.

“The fact that his co-workers and board members knew all of these problems and the fact that they voted to have him back in there…I mean, who are you thinking of? ” Is this chick for real? Since such a concerned citizen herself and cares so much about French Camp, then she would be quite aware that most of the current board members WERE NOT ON THE BOARD A FEW YEARS AGO WHEN THESE ACCUSATION ARE BEING CLAIMED TO HAVE HAPPENED. SO HOW WOULD THEY HAVE KNOWN OF THESE PROBLEMS AT THAT TIME? The board made their decision based off the the investigation findings, how is that not clear enough? The real idiot here is the girl who let people convince her that going on tv and doing this interview would be good. But as she said herself, she is easily manipulated.
I wouldn’t share my identity either.

I had something similar happen to me with a highway patrolman who was impersonating another officer here locally- going so far as to use the other officer’s name tag while on duty to ensure I wouldn’t find out his real name. He would pull me over for fun, and playfully cuffed me in a pizza hut once (in a way no one saw but us but it completely freaked me out and I was furious with him). It turned out he was living a double life. He had an entire other family he was hiding. Everything he told me about himself was a fantasy. We were together a year and a half. I”m still in therapy and looking for a lawyer.

Anthony

A lawyer because you had an affair with a highway patrol officer and he wasn’t honest about his name? Sounds like you were fine with it while it was happening but because he had another family you have a problem?

That seems kinda bitter and nothing a lawyer would or should be involved in. Hopefully there is much more to the story that would require a lawyer.

Fire fighters sleep on the job too, so what is the difference in this. It’s not like the fire bell was ringing and he didn’t go to fight a fire until he was finished with have sex.
Joe B.

Seriously,

Why is this news? If he got caught by his boss having sex… o.k. Reprimand him or something… but for women to be coming forward like he was the governor having a love child… this is just ridiculous.
old fart

He should have been washing the truck. But big deal they was useing each other.
wtshimmin

Politicians and media love hyping the attention to garbage like this. If the media printed the dirt about itself and it’s own employees, and politicians did likewise…glass houses you idiots.

crazy_ace808

Craig Jacobs

Exactly!

Nothing new here. Sex at rural fire stations are quite common. Firemen frequently have spouses or girlfriends overnight. At some of the slower stations it is common to have the family over for the day and BBQ. Why are firemen elevated to such a high standard just becase they have the job? Many have no degree, little training, and questionable ethics. I have a buddy in the central valley who has had sex with his wife at almost every station he’s worked for the last twenty years. He makes $110,00 a year for mostly baby sitting a fire station with the occasional medical call for which he is mostly useless.
zerotolerancesforexcuses

Heck, people have sex at Juvenile Justice Center all the time in the Control Booth!
laurie209

And some of you think that this is unusual behavior with firefighters or police officers. Well, no it is not.
Lipstick 22

Are you kidding me???
Are you two years old???
Are you uneducated???
Are you an adult???
Are you a moron???
Wow, he’s a womanizer???
Women and men, have been having sex every where from the beginning of time…

Grow up CW31!!!!

I hate to educate you, but women love sex as much as men do…

Grow up CW31!!!! Get a life…
Grow up CW31!!!! Get a life…
Grow up CW31!!!! When did it become wrong for two consenting adults to have sex?

As a woman, I am so tired of just blaming the male for his actions, having sex, as if woman had no choice in the matter…

She did have a choice and chose to engage in a act of sex with BW…
So, what!!!
Well, he was on duty, Grow up CW31!!!!

Grow up CW31!!!! Get a life…
Grow up CW31!!!! Get a life…
Grow up CW31!!!! When did it become wrong for two consenting adults to have sex?

Woooooo, sex is bad, Wooooo, sex is bad…
It is a psychological fact that in American society, woman generally initiate the sexual act!!! Oh, I get it, were not allowed to know the truth, because as Americans were stupid, right? Maybe, it you took the time to study the subject you would know that sex is also, HEALTHY!!!!

And sex is why you’re here, duh…

I don’t even care whether he was on duty or not, more needless information…
Grow up CW31!!!! When did it become wrong for two consenting adults to have sex?

The taxpayers were paying his salary while he was having sex. That’s when it became wrong. He was being paid to do a job, not to have sex with you (and it’s pretty clear from your little tirade that you’re one of his “women”). If you had a job that involved more than standing on a street corner you might understand that.

c_vanders

@Tia, although I somewhat agree with you about the weirdness you responded to, there are some valid points. This is not newsworthy. French camp is a little tiny town not Stockton or Sacramento by any means, this is not newsworthy at all. There are many other parts to this story that don’t make the news and channel 13 have refused to listen to about this fire station that has helped create the mess that it is. I guess they don’t want a real story. But it would really help clear up a lot of the rude comments being made towards the chief, board and even the firefighter in question. There’s a lot of internal issues there filled with vengeance and a good old boys club. And btw- he was cleared of all wrong doings.

Oh Geez

c vanders just because YOU think it is unnewsworthy doesn’t in any way mean that everyone thinks the way you do. We do hope there will be follow ups on this tale of whoppi in the firehouse, if one is guilty they are ALL guilty for not reporting it to the CO of the French Camp Fire Dept. For all posters who think this is a ok it is obvious that none of you have ever had a real job or ya would know that the only one allowed to have sex on the job is the BOSS or the owner of the business, geez, how uninformed can ya be.

C_vanders

Oh Geez- That’s the lamest response I’ve ever read. 1. He was cleared of any wrong doing and the news continues to sensationalize nothing., 2. There is a lot of other bs that happens in that department that have lead to these accusations is the point I was trying to make HOWEVER channel 13 leaves that out. 3. There are plenty of people trying to get the real story of this department out there and have been continually ignored because of unknown reasons. The sources channel 13 gets it info from are complete morons.

Oh geez

When was he cleared I did not read that any where plus I have always said ‘IF” it is true, C Vanders if ya know whats been going on at the French Camp Fire Dept. please share the info, anonymously of course. IF you are right “SHAME ON CHANNEL 13 REPORTERS” of course with a government union supporter governor I could see WHY the reporters are reluctent to tell the truth.and nothin but the truth.

SC

@oh geez the beginning of the story tells you he was reinstated to his job. People ARE trying to get the real story out there but are being ignored. Maybe they’ll have to try another UNBIASED news channel that would like info from both sides. There’s definitely more to this story than what being told.
V_BB

It is shameful that this made news headlines. It is an absolute disgrace. What is even more shameful is that there are so many unemployed people within our community and beyond, who would give anything to have a job- and in addition- they would respect that job. BTW- in regard to the comment made by adjm, not all firefighters at French Camp Fire are volunteer, in fact the firefighter in question has a paid position. Perhaps the next time you would like to comment- you should get your facts straight prior to hitting the “submit comment” button. The women involved, if the acts were voluntary, are certainly no more respectable then he. There has to some degree of accountability that falls on them, as well. The general public (taxpayers) however, have very little say over what the local ladies do on their spare time, but have every right to be upset with the fact that their local firehouse is tolerating such behavior. We have every right to be outraged. There is no way that this behavior could take place without being noticed by someone. As for this firefighter being cleared of charges? When did this take place? I do not recall such a thing ever being stated. It was stated however that the accusations were unsubstantiated. Very convenient when the Fire Chief was “conducting” the investigation- and just so happens to be a good friend of the firefighter in question. A third party investigation is certainly in order. If the firefighter accused of these accusations never threatened to sue the board, I am sure he would never have been reinstated. As for a history of this behavior that could help support a “pattern”- inquire as to why this firefighter quickly resigned from his position in West Port. It is very well known within the West Port community why he is no longer there. Same behavior. Good old taxpayer dollars. And Lipstick 22- before you offer to “educate” the audience, take a deep breath and use spellcheck.

is everyone in french camp a moron?

I want to reply specifically to you- so here you go!!!!!!!!!!
@V_BB- just how would you know that the accused and the chief are good friends? Do you follow them around with a camera, record conversations of theirs? Have you actually seen them hang out as friends on a personal basis?Or perhaps, it’s just hearsay and you slinging around more thoughless comments and insults that hold no merit? Is it fun for people to go around saying things that aren’t true just to ruin lives? And your moronic comment “A third party investigation is certainly in order” makes literally zero sense when in the very next sentance you state that tax payer dollars are being wasted. So…you need to make up your mind. Waste more money on something that has been investigated 2 times to get the same outcome? I am sure you aren’t brainless enough to know that every paid fire district has a lawyer who advises them on what needs to be done to stay within their legal rights. Or, gasp, are you going to say the lawyer is friends with them too??? Yes that sounds like a great idea, lets waste thousands of more dollars on something that didn’t happen over 3 years ago, that didn’t harm or hurt anyone, and get the same results! Why don’t you, before you decide to “educate” anybody, take a deep breath, and just…don’t.

Back to work.

You missed it Channel 13. Brandon went back to work yesterday. Sounds like your sources slipped up. Hee Hee.
