Supporting The Truth

The Martin Chronicles is watching and listening to the goings-on in and around embarrassed and embattled Villa Hills. Just like you, we hear questions from council members and confused residents. Just like you, we hear discredited excuses from Villa Hills' malfeasant Mayor Martin and his entourage. Just like you, we hear lie after lie after lie from the mendacious Martin as he tries to divert attention away from his misconduct and neglect of duty. Want just a few examples?

• "I called a locksmith before ordering the improper destruction of City property."
• "The temporary clerk doesn't need to be bonded because she doesn't handle money."
• "I have no idea who printed the Pro-Road Tax flyer and distributed it in the Voice of Villa Hills."
• "I'll make sure the clerks get the necessary training to fill Open Records requests."
• "The list I provided council includes every document burned on January 6."
• "The files on the computer in the mayor's office were erased on December 27, 2010."
• "I was never given the opportunity to sit down with Phil Taliaferro's company."
• "I will go door-to-door to explain my reasons for not hiring the eighth police officer to the residents."
• "I wasn't in the City Building when the interim City Clerk violated a Judge's direct order from the bench and Villa Hills' Ethics Ordinance when she used a City shredder to destroy personal documents from home."

Interestingly, Martin and his supporters no longer makes the claim Shorty has done nothing wrong. Instead, they all repeatedly say council doesn't "have the votes" to remove The Little Man From Norwood. We can only guess that even the most brazen liar has limits.

The Martinites and their leader are also desperately trying to "run out the clock". They hope the upcoming council election will surround Shorty with cronies like Dale Schaber, Mary Koening, Holly B. Isenhour-Menninger, Brian Wischer, Herman Goering and Jim Cahill and deliver The Little CEO from evil.

Most residents simply support THE TRUTH. Since Martin-and others- have stubbornly refused to clear everything up with Special Counsel we are left with the hope that the removal hearing will DELIVER THE TRUTH.
