Commentary

COMMENTARY: Nokomis’ police corruption remains unresolved

The Nokomis City Council is keeping its police department, despite how short-staffed it is. For now. This was the consensus of the city council during last night's regular meeting. But it doesn't address the inherent corruption within the Nokomis Police Department. We're not just talking about two ethical violations within the past year. It is much deeper than that - much closer to 30 to 40 years of unethical behavior. Botched murder investigations. Cop-on-cop crime. Self-dealing. Excessive reliance on "confidential […]

EDITORIAL: False charges in D.C. Reflecting Pool “vandalism”

Earlier this week, I read an article involving the grand jury injunction against a former Team USA Olympian.
