Joseph T. Deters, Prosecuting AttorneyHamilton CountyMr. Deters:I'm reporting a story about the following item published May 2nd in TheWhistleblower, the longtime political tattler newsletter put out by JimSchifrin, who uses the nom de plume "Charles Foster Kane." I'd appreciate your answers to somequestions.From:http://thecincinnatusstandard.com/Blower_May_2_2008.htm
Tuesday when Charles Foster Kane and "JayWalking Joe" Deters were having lunch at the Boathouse,the Hamilton County Prosecutor was telling our Beloved Whistleblower Publisher how many yoofs have been arrested since January 2008 along the crack track of the proposed Trolley Folly through the Killing Fields of Over-the-Rhine. You still won't believe that number. Which is probably why Hess & Eisenhardt would have to armor plate the trolleys.
1) Is it true that you had lunch with Mr. Schifrin as he claims? If so, do you regularly meet with orcommunicate with him? If so, how often?As you may know, Mr. Schifrin's newsletter is filled with racial slurs against African Americans. In fact, theabove paragraph is a relatively mild example. For instance, Mr. Schifrin has called Mayor Mallory a"darkie" and referred to Rosa Blackwell as a "mammy." Mr. Schifrin's newsletter is also peppered withderogatory remarks against women, gays, and others.2) What is your reaction to this type of writing?
