The Aug. 20 editorial expressing outrage in regard to the 80-month prison sentence for Rhonda Breard is understandable, but not very helpful. What we need is a better way to determine the appropriate time behind bars for white-collar criminals.
While I enjoy looking at the paper to keep up with the news I just cannot understand the city council. They keep trying to push up the taxes, why don’t they start charging for parking downtown.
