Thursday on First Coast Connect with Melissa Ross, we started with the latest on the Jacksonville City Council's investigation into JEA.
Council PresidentScott Wilson has said it is important to get to the bottom of the what happened as the public may not learn much about the federal investigation if there are no charges. City Councilman and former federal prosecutor Rory Diamond joined us. He is leading the City Council committee investigating the failed attempt to privatize JEA.

Dr. Joseph Sirven, professor and Chair Emeritus of Neurology for the Mayo Clinic joined us to talk about the latest devices and what’s on the way.
