Edictum consulare de reprehensione D. Claudi aedilis curulis
EDICTUM CONSULARE DE REPREHENSIONE D. CLAUDI AEDILIS CURULIS
This joint edict of the consules M. Aurelius Cotta Iovius and C. Petronius Stephanus Turpilianus officially reprimands aedilis curulis D. Claudius Aquilinus for his recent public behavior when he urinated outdoors at a Roman festival of Nova Roma, next to the tent of our reenactment legionaries, which might have been visible to many visitors, reenactors or even to photographers.
This caused a deep resentment and internal problems in the relationship of Nova Roma with said reenactment soldiers.
Given the indignitas of this behavior of the aedilis, he was invited to step down from his office, but he choose not do so. Nor did he pay any financial amends or, for honor's sake, undertake any other mitigating action to compensate for his transgression.
While D. Claudius issued an official apology in private to the offended legionary organizers, they did not find the content of this satisfactory.
In light of this, we, the consules, would also like to extend an apology to the offended legionaries on behalf of the magistracy of Nova Roma.
Nova Roma does not condone this behavior from any citizen. Indeed, we must hold magistrates, in their capacity as the elected leadership of Nova Roma, to an even higher standard of scrutiny and behavior.
Let this incident be a reminder and lesson to all citizens that their behavior at our events, and in official Nova Roman forums, reflects not only the individual but also the organization and our community as a whole. We expect all citizens to conduct themselves in a manner that reflects the highest virtues and most noble examples of Romanitas, one that extols the glory of the Mos Maiorum.
