The Martin Chronicles has been receiving calls and emails for some time now from several sources telling us that we should investigate the allegedly close connection between a current, "holier-than-thou" Villa Hills City Council candidate-who serves on malfeasant Mayor Mike Martin's Safety and Finance Committees and a former Villa Hills councilperson-who was also a failed State Senate candidate in 2012 and was later arrested for running a police barricade while transporting marijuana. We aren't providing much additional detail at this point because the rumors about this alleged close connection are-to say the least-salacious.
We have to admit that there has been a great deal of thoughtful discussion in the offices of The Martin Chronicles about whether or not to pursue the persistent rumors of this allegedly sordid connection. Most of our reluctance to do so stems from the fact that we would prefer the quickly coming election to be about the many issues facing the troubled town of Villa Hills.
But, we have come to the conclusion that we are going to-at least sometimes-operate in the wicked world that the miscreant Martin himself has created. Martin is the one who grabbed power by telling lie after lie after lie after lie after lie. Martin and his cronies have tried to deflect attention away from their own incompetence and corruption by falsely destroying the reputations of other fine people who certainly deserve far better. So, here we are.
Martin and his dirtbag cronies have spent huge sums of taxpayer money falsely portraying anyone who dares oppose them as people off ill-will and bad behavior. This distasteful taxpayer-funded tactic has been an absolute disgrace. But-so far any way-it has also been effective. Buttressed by idiots who have taken to podiums to proclaim that "this mayor (Martin) does great things for people", Martin and his dirtbag cronies have stepped up their campaign of defamation and deceit.
If someone is going to falsely portray themselves as some kind of courageous, concerned citizen who supposedly worries about the safety of residents simply because a local police officer actually wants to eat a meal at a restaurant, we have to see what really motivates the actions of that "concerned citizen". So we will.
It was the business genius H. Ross Perot who once famously said, "If someone's spouse can't trust them, how can I?" Furthermore, how can the taxpayers trust that person to be a true guardian of their interests?
To that end, we are sending our best investigative reporters to the Kenton County Courthouse later today. They will be armed with case numbers and Open Records Request forms. These reporters will be ready to bring back any information.
And we will report it all to you.
