   Steve Corbett is asking very serious questions on WILK news radio.
   http://www.wilknewsradio.com

   Steve Corbett want to shut down the Luzerne County Justice System. He wants someone else to handle it.
   He is making up a plan. He might even convince everyone to help assist with his plan. He is very fired up!

   Thousands of cases, children, lives were significantly altered.

   He believes the Commissioners must get a list together and trim the fat in the county by "letting go" those who did not care.

   We all know Luzerne County Commissioner Greg Skrepenak has refused to speak before the Interbranch Commission.

   This discussion has revealed many items about the KIDS FOR CASH SCANDAL.
   There is a tone of shock and anger.
   What is "indefinite probation"? That term encouraged "no hope" thinking.
   Some cases were bogus.

   Children can get into trouble. The philosophy should be pro-active treatment directed.
   Children can be directed to other programs and go through different levels of therapy.

   This situation was for greed and power.
   Everyone failed. Children were viewed as a commodity.
   People received work because of the decisions and deals.

   The bottom line is taking care of your own interests.

   Public employees ensured of financial security. It went beyond that need.
   It turned into personal comfort on the backs of children.

   The only State elected official present at these proceedings was State Senator Lisa Baker.

   The reason no one said anything is the the same reason no one said anything about the felonies being committed in the General Assembly. It's why nearly every GA member participated in a conspiracy to obstruct justice. Just like organized crime (more like it every day) they have a no snitching rule. For me, this is the most compelling reason to NEVER vote for an incumbent.

   The "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" philosphy stinks.

   Did anyone watch the video of the hearings on PCN over the weekend?

   The extreme contrast of testimony is obvious.
