The Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office is ending its investigation into allegations that former Cupertino Mayor Darcy Paul dictated hiring and firing decisions, stating it found no evidence a crime was committed in the last year.Earlier this month, the Cupertino City Council requested the DA’s office look into Paul’s actions following a city-commissioned investigation by Santa Rosa-based employment attorney Linda Daube that found the council had created a culture of distrust in city staff and “abusive and controlling behavior” from the former mayor.Daube’s investigation also said Paul, who was termed out at the end of last year, had tried to influence the city manager’s hiring and firing decisions. The city has a council-manager structure of government where those powers belong to the city manager.
