Jacksonville council president issued subpoena over controversial text mentioning ‘big favor’

Jacksonville City Council President Kevin Carrico told News4JAX on Wednesday that he has been issued a subpoena about a week after text messages revealed that he planned to nominate his boss for a position on JEA’s board because he owed them a “big favor.”  The subpoena, which was issued by the State Attorney’s Office, states that he must turn over records such as his daily calendar entries from Jan. 1, 2025, through Feb. 24, and must also include a myriad of communications records within the same time period.  Reporter Chris Will sat down with Carrico, and has the latest on the matter.
