Winter's blunder will cost more than $125K - lots more

If you read the backsides of the reports on Winston Brooks' suit in the Journal, KRQE, KOAT, and KOB, you will find a number of steaming comments.  The most of the commenters think Brooks is the heavy; that he is doing something wrong by enforcing the terms of the settlement agreement APS entered into with him.

The settlement agreement included a promise that APS (Interim Supt Brad Winter) would not defame Brooks or his wife.  And damned if it doesn't look like Winter went right ahead and did just that. 

If guilt and consequences could be assigned where they belong, the quarter of a million or so that this thing is finally going to cost, would come out of his pocket and not out of the operational fund; dollars that were destined for classrooms before they were squandered along with our trust.
