3 Days Left, and Zsombor Peter is Writing About Middle School Athletics

instead of writing about the fact that Paula Maes and her
cronies are about to hire a new superintendent

who will be required to make no public statement, nor
will she (Linda Sink) be required to answer even one
specific question on any issue, on the record.

Not even regarding the most important issue of all,

which is the abdication as role models by the entire
leadership of the APS.


In fairness, it is likely not his choice.
He like Jessica Garate, Mitch Blacher, Larry Barker
and others, probably got into Journalism to tell the truth.


The blame falls squarely on the shoulders of Thomas Lang,
Kent Walz, Michelle Donaldson, Mary Lynn Roper, and
Sue Stephens.


who would rather hide the truth from stakeholders, than let
Paula Maes and her cronies feel the pain of the
consequences of their betrayal of the public trust.

Poor Zsombor. Poor Jessica.

Poor APS stakeholders.

It used to be said in big police depatments nation-wide that the sergeants ran the departments. If you had brass on your collar, you were just in it for hobnobbing with politicos so your guys could get some new cars and enough bullets that year. Maybe some newfangled body armor and some school shooter classes, some decent raises to keep 'em clean, off the take.

And when Sarge and the DA got together? The brass said how much you need for Over time and survielance equipment, knowing that particular sarge was the next guy to get some brass when the time was right, while the lead investigator got to try on some stripes

but now? the brass collars no longer scare or intimidate anyone, they are just enforcers of the status quo, and they run interference between the sarges and the DA's office

Sergeants have no pull, no real pull, except for street style justice. and if a brave sarge tried to take on city hall? they get torn apart for being the bearer of chaotic street justice, warts, scars and all, just another slain messenger
