The former Miami Herald reporter whose credibility has come under fire for her past relationship with Alberto Carvalho, who turned down the Pinellas superintendent's job to instead run the Miami-Dade school district, has resigned her job at the Boston Globe, the Miami Herald reports.

Tania deLuzuriaga, left, covered the Miami-Dade district for the Herald for about a year. While both Pinellas and Miami-Dade were courting Carvalho, e-mails surfaced that seemed to show that deLuzuriaga and Carvalho had an intimate relationship.

Carvalho has denied an inappropriate relations with the reporter, who has not commented. He initially claimed the e-mails were fakes, but later acknowledged they might be real. Investigations into the situation are continuing.

The Miami-Dade School Board has yet to affirm Carvalho's contract there. The Pinellas job, meanwhile, has been filled.
