OKLAHOMA CITY — Governor Kevin Stitt expanded on his criticisms of the Oklahoma Forestry Services’ response to the March 14 wildfires on April 7. His public criticism of the response started after 2 News learned that the Director of Forestry Mark Goeller was fired. We asked him about this in his press conference on March 26, to which he responded, “He’s the head of the forestry department, and we had a horrible, horrible wildfire in the state of Oklahoma and I didn’t think he really did a good job.” …In his next weekly press conference on April 2, Stitt suggested eliminating the Forestry Department entirely. …Then, on April 7, Stitt put out another statement to “set the record straight”. He said the Oklahoma Forestry Service only used half of the resources available to fight the wildfires, but provided no evidence to back up that claim. We reached out for comment and are waiting to hear back.
