If you deal with government officials long enough, you come to recognize certain truisms.

They don’t like controversy. They don’t particularly want you to second-guess them. And they sometimes act as if the public records they create belong to them, not the taxpayers who finance their work.

A situation that began in 2010 and has unfolded in the Poudre School District over the last few years is all that and worse. Frankly, I’ve never seen anything like it.   Continue reading “School district conceals and destroys records of student with autism”

AVONDALE, Ariz. — A Goodyear police officer pleaded not guilty on Monday morning after he was accused of recording 21 women as they undressed at an Avondale tanning salon.

Police began investigating on Oct. 15 after a 20-year-old woman reported that she was videotaped without her consent while undressing at a tanning salon in the area of Dysart Road and Rancho Santa Fe Boulevard.   Continue reading “Goodyear police officer pleads not guilty to surreptitious videotaping”

It’s no longer everyone else’s imagination but purely his own:  Obama, and not cash, is king.

Surrealistic as it may be, isn’t that a tiny crown graphic at the bottom of Barack Obama’s picture in the ‘Stand for Action on Immigration’ ad sent out by Organizing for Action at 10 o’clock last night?   Continue reading “Delusions of Grandeur direct from The King”

(CN) – The city of Waldo, Fla., wrongly fired four police officers after they objected to having to write 12 tickets per shift in connection with a scheme to increase city revenues, the officers claim in a lawsuit.

In a lawsuit filed in the Alachua County, Fla. circuit court, the officers – Brandon Roberts, Jeffrey Pedrick, Roy Steadman, and Brian Shoaf – claim establishing a ticket quota to meet a specified city revenue projection was only one of the misdeeds they witnessed on the job.   Continue reading “Fired for Whistle-Blowing, Cops Say”

Churches in a Maryland county are being offered tax breaks for incorporating environmentalism into their sermons.

In Prince George’s County, 30 pastors have started preaching ‘green’ ministries to avoid extra taxes, the Washington Post reports.  The taxes depend on the acreage for all property owners, including churches, as part of Maryland’s “storm water remediation fee.”   Continue reading “Maryland County Pushes Churches to Preach Environmentalism In Exchange for Tax Credits”

A man who fatally stabbed a 20-year-old college football player in the chest at an Oregon convenience store over the weekend was likely an illegal immigrant, authorities say.

Juventino Bermudez-Arenas stabbed Parker Moore several times at a 7-11 in McMinnville on Saturday. Bermudez-Arenas returned to the scene after fleeing, and was shot and killed by police who say the 33-year-old refused to drop the knife he used to stab Moore.   Continue reading “Illegal Immigrant Stabbed College Football Player To Death In Oregon”

On the eve of a Senate hearing today into whether the Federal Reserve has been “captured” by the institutions it is supposed to regulate, the Fed announced a broad review of its supervision of the largest banks, and a top official acknowledged there’s a danger that examiners could be too easy on them.

“We understand the risks of doing our job poorly and of becoming too close” to banks, New York Fed President William C. Dudley said in testimony prepared for delivery before a Senate panel. “We cannot catch or correct every error by a financial institution, and we sometimes make mistakes.”   Continue reading “Fed Reviews Bank Supervision as Senate Committee Begins Hearings”

The U.S. Federal Trade Commission’s game of whack-a-mole with Windows tech support scammers continues.

The FTC and the State of Florida recently announced the temporary shut down of several businesses in two new cases of Windows tech support scams. The two cases involved scams that bilked “tens of thousands” of Windows PC owners out of more than $120 million, the FTC says.

For at least four years now, scam artists have been trying to pull one over on gullible computer users with phony tech support calls. The FTC said its latest operation was the third such case since 2011. More are sure to come since putting together a scam like this is relatively cheap compared to the potential million dollar windfall.   Continue reading “How to protect yourself from PC tech support scams”

So how did a life with so much promise end with May striding onto the campus of FSU Thursday and shooting three people, only to be gunned down by police?   Continue reading “FSU shooter Myron May was ‘smiley, happy-go-lucky’ — and falling apart”

One of the officers that killed James Boyd is retiring early with full benefits and gets to avoid the Internal Affairs investigation by doing so. The local media in Albuquerque is trying to downplay his retirement by running headlines that indicate the exact opposite of the truth.

Officer Keith Sandy is the officer that made headlines and sparked outrage by stating he was going to shoot Boyd two hours before he did. He told a state law enforcement officer:   Continue reading “Cop Who Killed Homeless Man Retiring Early with Full Benefits to Avoid Investigation”
