Payout to FEMA Claims Director Sparks Outrage in Northern NM

2.6.26 – Last week, in partnership with New Mexico in Focus, Source New Mexico's Patrick Lohmann published a story revealing that Jay Mitchell, the director of the Hermits Peak-Calf Canyon FEMA claims office, received more than $250,000 in federal relief for claimed smoke damage at his Angel Fire home after the 2022 Hermits Peak-Calf Canyon Fire.
