State: will the GOP Campaign for governor and its primary (and the Democrats for that matter) boil down to who’s got the most money? That’s an unhappy sign for American democracy.
State/Cheshire: the death penalty situation. Rep. Esty has it right in noting the tremendous burden a capital murder prosecution places on the judicial system. Many people find it odd or repellant that it’s been three years and a trial hasn’t started yet in the home invasion murders, but, were you a defendant, would you want your attorney to expedite your way to the scaffold?
Two improbable crimes: one where a Wallingford man in a neck brace robbed a bank; the brace made him easily identifiable and he was soon arrested. The other was a West Haven man who managed to involve himself in two accidents along I-91 in Meriden and North Haven in 20 minutes.
The Wallingford Foundation grants for 2010 were announced recently. Twenty-four of the 28 applicants received $24,911 of the $100,000 originally requested, and the job of choosing and whittling the many applications down to what is doable has to be one of the toughest going.
