Does Lakewood Need A Truth Commission?

Post by Bill Call »

Would it be helpful to have all the players in this fiasco , the Mayor, officials of LHA, LHF and the Clinic appear under oath to tell us what they knew and when they knew it.

I believe the above three are already bound by office to tell the truth.

This is what confuses me so much.

Yeah it might be illegal but so what? mentality.

Wouldn't that be great? Every player lined up in front of Judge Carroll, the people, and the media.

This story is so twisted, it's near impossible to triangulate for most people. I can understand the bad taste in their mouths. I have it too.

I wish corruption wasn't so complicated!

The 3rd can't come soon enough!

Bill,

I think that will happen, but it appears that they were successful in getting those depositions scheduled for after the election.

At the end of the day, I hope that Lakewood voters remember that:

Matt,

Isn't it convenient how everything always is scheduled for after the election? How about the lawsuit? Again, scheduled for after the election. I have been told that Judge O'Donnell lives right behind Mike Summers. Interesting.

When the truth is discovered will it be too late?

That is exactly what they are shooting for. I have been told on other sites, "this does not serve the community better", "we might not have gotten a good deal, but we need to move forward", "it's too late, I'm dancing on a pile of rubble" by pro 64 people. I love the "does not serve the community better". They know this, but if some people might make a buck, screw the community. Callousness at it's finest.

It's a shame that someone asked the question. It's all the more shameful in that it is a necessary question. And even more so that we may never get the truth.

Has anyone seen the video posted on the Lakewood Voters for Progress Facebook page?

They are claiming that no less than 11 hospitals were asked to take over at Lakewood and they all refused. That a national search was conducted!

We know that many people have worked hard to set the record straight and to show how The Bad Government in Lakewood has put the screws to the people in this city. I pray that Issue 64 fails.

To quote a supporter of theirs from another post, I'd like to see them "prove it." They had a lot of time to get that information out and only now reveal it. Hogwash.
