Paula Maes is accustomed to privilege

Because she is the President of the Character Counts Leadership Council;

the council has offered no resistance to the abandonment of the Pillars of Character Counts as the standard of conduct for adult role models in the APS.

Because she is the President of the Albuquerque Public Schools Board of Education;

she can prevent any investigation or attention to corruption, incompetence, and their enabling practices in the leadership and administration of the APS; including but not limited to preventing an impartial (forensic) audit of the leadership of the APS.

Because she is married to the President of the Modral Law Firm

she is immune to the requirements of the NMIPRA, and most other laws.

Because she is the President of the NM Broadcasters Association

none of this will be investigated or reported upon by the media.

Because she is privileged,

she will never have to explain, defend or even acknowledge the issues of public corruption, incompetence, and criminal conspriracy in the leadership and administration of the APS.
