~ Why Don’t The Papers Tell Us? ~

“WHEN WILL

I GET A LAWYER?”

   “Wise admitted to Trooper Gerard Sauers that he killed his family sometime between 2 a.m. Saturday and 2 a.m. Sunday, according to an arrest affidavit filed in the case.”

    “… Leola District Judge B. Denise Commins arraigned Wise Thursday afternoon.”

    “…The only question Wise asked Commins during the brief hearing was, ‘When will I get a lawyer?’"

    Wise’s question, “When will I get a lawyer” was printed in newspapers throughout this country.  Was Wise read his Miranda Rights prior to “confessing?”  (Click here for the Wikipedia definition.)  Was he offered a lawyer?  Why is his only question at his arraignment, “When will I get a lawyer?”   Why haven’t the Lancaster Newspapers asked?

    “Grand jury investigations are closed to the public and often secret. By law, everyone — including prosecutors, jurors and witnesses — is forbidden from disclosing details about the probe.”

“Shellenberger testifies before grand jury,” New Era, April 13, 2006 (click here).

    This is now the third or fourth time the Lancaster New Era has printed this lie.  Witnesses are allowed to disclose their testimony. 

    “With all this secrecy, how does information ‘leak’ from the grand jury?  The only legitimate means through which grand jury proceedings can be made public is through the persons who are subpoenaed to testify.  They, alone, of all the people associated with the grand jury, have the right to disclose their testimony to whomever they choose, if they choose to do so.”

How and why does the Lancaster New Era continue to print a dangerous lie?

    “The source, who requested anonymity, said Wise was involved in an altercation at the county prison last spring that sent two correctional officers to the hospital.  ‘If charges had been filed (against Wise), he never would have been out of prison,’ the source said.”

    Will there be any follow-up by the Lancaster Newspapers on this story?  Why is Vincent A. Guarini still the warden?  Why hasn’t he been suspended pending an investigation into this, the prior beating of Jon Eichelman and having 31 women eating, sleeping and using bathroom facilities in the prison gym?

     The Lancaster Newspapers have never printed that the same could also be said of Micah Stewart and the recent attempted homicide trial that will end up as a mistrial.  If the Lancaster County detectives had done their job he would have been in jail at the time of this alleged incident, charged in the homicide of Cortney Fry.

    Why haven’t the Lancaster Newspapers followed up on the investigation into the shooting death of Renee Binkley, or on Eichelman and the investigation into who really shot the two-year old child?  Why haven’t they asked police why citizens weren’t notified of a serial burglar until after the 58th theft?  Why haven’t they followed up on the unsolved murder of Heather Marie Nunn?  Why aren’t they interviewing witnesses as they leave the grand jury?  Why haven’t they reported on the results of the grand jury which has been in session for over a year now?  Why don’t the Lancaster Newspapers tell us how much this is costing the taxpayers? 

    “The juror went on to describe a hostile deliberation process in which a male juror was screaming and pointing his finger at her and others, while another juror complained about the time and money wasted on the case.”

Will chatty juror force a retrial?” New Era, April 11, 2006 (click here).

    Why don’t the Lancaster Newspapers tell us how much time and money has been wasted?  Why don’t they tell us how a total of 21 bullet holes can be made in several pieces of clothing being worn by several people by one bullet of a .22 caliber gun?  Why don’t they tell us why these three individuals were not arrested for aggravated assault after an earlier beating of Micah Stewart?

    What do the Lancaster Newspapers do?  Back the convention center.

There will be much more tomorrow and also the contest rules for the “I WANT TO BE MARV ADAMS FOR A DAY!” contest and what the lucky reader will win!   (Dr. Fraud, you cannot enter the contest.  It’s a conflict of interest.  Don’t email me again!)
