Rumors

Editor, Times-Union:
I would like the opportunity to put a stop to the rumors that are going around about my departure from the company I was employed at here in Warsaw.

Currently there are two women who are so unhappy with their own lives they feel the need to ruin mine even more. The reason I departed from my company is no one's business but mine and the company I worked for. But there seems to be a lot of malicious things being said right now about me that are not true.

These two women have decided to take what they think happened and create their own version of what happened. What they are saying is way out of proportion and uncalled for. I would appreciate it if these two women would mind their own business and keep their noses out of mine. It was a hard enough time for me without them making it any worse.

I do not understand why when people do not know the truth they create false ones. They need to grow up and realize that their lies can have a very big affect on a person's life.

Light Sentence

Editor, Times-Union:
Judge Reed: what gives, no jail time, 1-1/2 years probation? In the Schue case I do not feel that the sentence fits the crime.

Were you not listening when the ISP said "evidence of possession and distribution"?

What do you think they were going to do with 125 plants, give them away?

From what I have read about this case in the paper I see a drug dealer that "got off." I have read of much tougher sentences for people in possession of less marijuana.

I wonder what kind of sentence you would give a meth dealer? Tougher sentences for abusers and dealers are what we need and expect, not plea deals and "shame on you" speeches. Please Judge Reed, do what the voters expect of you.
