A1: "Students test positive for meth and cocaine"

A slow day leaves space to fill, but you gotta be careful what you fill it with. Mirsada Buric does pretty good work getting all the info into the first draft, but the slot was on break when this went through. Remember that day in Journalism 101 when the prof talked about prejudicing judicial proceedings?

  1. We are still trying to figure out what benefit the adult was getting out of giving drugs to a fifth-grader,î Morley said
    Good reporting but did seem to convict the guy w/out a trial,lotta this kind of stuff going on it seems that if the police arrest some one they're guilty at least as reported in the media
    Hm lets see if I can help this morley person out ...A male Drug user/ dealer /relative gives a 12 year old FEMALE relative who is in 5th grades enough highly addictive dope to share with two FEMALE friends at school
    can we connect the dots here ?

I encourage you to share your own views and experience with me and other readers. How you do that matters, and I'm committed to maintaining a place where readers and commenters can feel safe from adolescent BS. So here's the deal:

There are two kinds of anonymous comments: those by people who have a genuine fear of revenge from the dark side, and those from darksiders just hiding to avoid accountability. You may post comments anonymously, but I reserve the right to treat anonymous comments as found items that belong to me and do with them as I see fit.

If, on the other hand, you're willing to stand by your convictions and post under your own name or a regular handle, your comments belong to you, and I'll edit them only on egregious violations of respect for others.

If this doesn't work for you, I'm sure you'll be happier somewhere else.
