It's been the talk of the town for weeks: Three firefighters and a dispatcher in hot water for their alleged "sexual misconduct" in the fire station. While shocking many in the community, it's not the first time that fire departments have been at the center of sex scandals. For instance, seven Philadelphia firefighters faced discipline in 2015 for having sex with a paramedic on duty. Also, back in 2005, a Sacramento firefighter resigned and three others were fired for having sex in the California fire station. The list goes on and on across the country, in both large city departments and small-town ones.
