Give Embattled APS Administrator Her Day

The Journal editors have demanded that Elsy Fierro be given "her day" "because the unresolved allegations undermine her reputation and authority."

Their demand targeted the NMPED, saying that they/it, "... shouldn't wait for a gavel rapping on the door" and that they, "Get off the dime, resolve this matter, ..."

Too bad that they didn't demand to know why the NMPED has done nothing.

Nobody wants more than Beth Everitt, to see this thing all go away without an investigation or public revelation of her participation in the grade change.

So far, the NMPED has conducted an "official" investigation that didn't include an interview with Beth Everitt. She is yet to answer a single question on the record, or under oath.

I am led to believe that the NMPED and the NMEED
have done nothing because;

Beth Everitt has juice with her husband,
who has juice with Bill Richardson,
who has juice with the Secretary of Education,
who has juice with the Director of the NMEEB.

The last thing Elsy Fierro needs is for the NMPED and NMEED to get off the dime. Her interests are best served by relative impartiality of a court hearing.

The editors concluded that, "... since Fierro wants to clear any cloud, she should insist on a public proceeding." (emphasis added)

It seems like the editors have at once
no idea what is really going on,
and a total understanding what is going on;

but then cannot,or will not separate them.
