The article the Star is hopefully researching
Remember all that brouhaha not that long ago, at the beginning of the Kansas City, Missouri school year about now-gone Superintendent Dr. John Covington and his accusations of impropriety on the part of Airick Leonard West? Yeah, those charges. I do, too. It seems to me The Kansas City Star should be researching a story right now about a) the charges and b) validity or lack of validity of those same charges. Wouldn't that make a great article, no matter the turnout? Don't we deserve to know if the charges made had any truth to them or not? It surely seems like it to me. Joe Robertson? Any information? And if the Star doesn't do it/isn't doing it, then I surely hope The Pitch is. What about it, guys? That would surely make some terrific, needed investigative reporting. If not those two, then how about Russ Ptacek at NBC Action News? Somebody? I think the parents, teachers and students all deserve answers, let alone the rest of the citizens of the city. The charges came up very quickly, then went away just as fast. Is there any substantiation to them? I'm not assuming guilt at all. I assume Mr. West is completely "clean" until shown otherwise. I just think someone ought to be asking the questions. We still need a clean school district in the city, you know?

When you have Slanderella Tony Botello leveling charges, how true do you think they really were?
Let me explain it: they had no validity whatsoever and you'd have to be a mouth breather to think otherwise.
C'mon dude: don't fall into the Botello trap of lies, slander and misinformation. Do the world a favor and don't go there.
Stick to what you know. And, more importantly, stick to what you know is true.
1) I never--never--quoted or referred to Tony regarding this situation;
2) There were charges made earlier. There seemed to be some validity to them. They were never addressed, after the fact. No one knows if they were legitimate or not, at least no one in the public who's speaking. There is no "trap" I am or would be falling into. No one knows what the truth is on this who has come out and spoken, to date. As I said, it's worth looking into. If he did nothing wrong, great, we'll know that. If he did, we'll know that.
McLanahan, (if that's your real name) aren't you slandering Mr. Botello?
