Sue Black, director of Arizona State Parks & Trails, is pictured at a public auction in Prescott June 30, 2015, when she won the bid for a 320-acre site where 19 firefighters -- the Granite Mountain Hotshots -- died. Public records show that under Black’s leadership at State Parks & Trails, 103 full-time employees have left, and the department has recently asked its office employees to volunteer their time to clean toilets, patrol creeks, collect fees and work in park stores.
