The Martin Chronicles staff still reads the weekly newspaper. Every now and again we find something that's worth a comment of our own. We came across a letter-to-the-editor that goes a long way toward explaining the boat load of problems in malfeasant Mayor Mike Martin's Villa Hills.
The letter writer seems to think we are picking on some folks. Well, we are. There is good reason for it. We plan to continue. Let's do a quick review.
The St. Jokers: Our intelligent readers know that "The St. Jokers" are not everyone who belongs to St. Joseph Parish in Crescent Springs. Most of the families who attend the church, send their children to the school and help at the festival and elsewhere are fine folks. But the know-it-all, holier-than-thou, elitist St. Jokers are a major reason Villa Hills is in its current, sorry state. You know it. They know it. We know it.
The Civic Club Ass Clowns: Our intelligent readers also know that there are some fine folks at the old civic club. Some of them provide us with great leads as well. But there is a holdover contingent that gravitates to the bar several nights a week who do nothing but whip up fear and loathing. They are holdovers from the scandalous embezzlement days from not that many years ago. These ass clowns are a major reason Villa Hills is in its current, sorry state. You know it. They know it. We know it.
You know what else? If someone thinks that reporting the exact words council people say and the things that they do is "making fun" of them, that sure says a lot about those council people. And what it says isn't the least bit good. We aren't going to turn a blind eye while these council people tear what's left of the City apart for some foolish vision of "peace".
Next up? We have a guy who told the police one very important thing and then told a completely different story to the Special Counsel investigating the malfeasant Martin. By most definitions, one of the two things this guy said was a lie.
Not just a little white lie. This guy is one of those responsible for Villa Hills' current, sorry state. This guy is one of those responsible for maintaining-in fact, worsening-an environment in which the malevolent Martin continues his vendetta against the Villa Hills Police Department.
This guy's action most likely emboldened Martin to step out from behind the LIE he had been telling for years, now admitting that he wants to DISBAND THE VILLA HILLS POLICE DEPARTMENT.
This guy's action most likely emboldened Martin to remove a security door at the police department, putting Chief Dan Goodenough and Detective Schutzman at greater risk.
This guy's action most likely emboldened Martin to sign an Executive Order providing a mayor with sweeping, unprecedented power to have residents arrested.
This guy's action most likely emboldened Martin to hire his personal attorney to also serve as TAXPAYER-FUNDED City Attorney.
This guy's action most likely emboldened Martin to cut himself a $23,000-PLUS TAXPAYER-FUNDED BONUS CHECK.
This guys action most likely emboldened Martin to hire a City Administrator disguised as a City Clerk who is spying on police officers.
This guy may not want to face it. But he is an enabler of Martin's continuing malfeasance. There is just no way around that FACT. You know it. They know it. We know it.
Judging by the signs all over the City expressing support for the Villa Hills Police Department, this guy and the editorial writer are on the wrong side of history.
We're off to chase down another story.
