The previous law enforcement secretary of Robert Bentley, the governor of Alabama, accused his former chief of wrongly terminating him. Spencer Collier alleged the governor of having an issue with an adviser and filed a lawsuit in Montgomery on Tuesday. The previous adviser involved in the lawsuit is Rebekah Mason.

Collier said that his termination was unfair and that the governor provided false statements to the press in order to ill repute him. But, Robert stated that his previous law administration secretary mishandled the funds at the agency, which eventually led to his dismissal. Collier's lawsuit is the recent deluge in the allegations between the governor and his previous law enforcement secretary.

"Their lies have hurt me financially, have severely damaged my reputation and they have made it their mission to permanently end my career in law enforcement," abcNEWS quoted Collier's statement. Bentley said that Collier was fired from his office for a cause, which will be made public very soon. The governor added that he will defend the lawsuit vigorously.

Meanwhile, Mason has made calls to her lawyer, which was not instantly responded. The lawsuit by Collier accused Bentley of terminating him as the two differed in a petition to file a document saying that there is no proof of wrongdoing in the moral case against Mike Hubbard, the House Speaker. While Collier wanted to file a proclamation, Bentley was against his opinion.

Collier said that the governor asked him to lie to prosecutors, but he did not want to do so as it would be unlawful. As a law administration officer, he is responsible for supporting the law and working along with investigations, Collier added.

Meanwhile, Bentley confessed that he made inappropriate remarks to Mason over the phone, however, he told that he did not involve in any physical relationship with her. Stan Stabler, the new law enforcement officer of Brentley, said that it was the former law officer who employed a government helicopter in 2014 to get the governor's disremembered wallet from Tuscaloosa to Fort Morgan.  He said that the governor was unaware that they were going to use a jet to get back his wallet.

The lawsuit accused Stabler and Mason of involving in Collier's business affair with the state and providing untrue details and charges, leading to his termination. Collier also accused unidentified defendants in the law office, who are aware that he did not mishandle cash because the report by Public Examiners found no evidence of such act, according to WTVM.com.

The governor has disclosed his 2015 income tax returns on Monday after losing a huge part of his assets to his previous lady Dianne Bentley. Bentley's adjusted gross income amounted to $147,624 in 2015. His adjusted gross income was $210, 327 in 2014. The governor's alimony payments impacted his income, Tuscaloosanews.com reported.

The governor divided his assets as part of a divorce settlement case filed in September ending his 50-year marriage with his wife. The income tax statement also shows that Bentley is not accepting any compensation as a governor.
