San Diego Mayor Bob Filner's chief of staff confirmed to 10News that the mayor began his therapy a week early and has already completed the program, but a statement from his attorneys said he will finish his therapy Saturday.
On Friday afternoon, Chief of Staff Lee Burdick told 10News reporter Allison Ash that Filner began his two weeks of "intensive" therapy one week earlier due to "intense media coverage."
In a press conference in late July, Filner said he would begin his two-week therapy session on August 5.
He was originally scheduled to come back to work August 19, but Filner is reportedly coming back to San Diego Friday.
When asked, Burdick did not say when the mayor would return.
