“This forum is to INFORM and discuss, NOT to cast doubt or ruin reputations.”

Case and the Hockey deal have been full of allegations, heresay and such. I think it is time to start moderating comments. They much be constructive(pro con), factual or logical. Otherwise this will start looking like the daily’s comment section.

EDITOR NOTE–Clancy, you are correct. It gets more difficult each day to walk the line between “censorship” and transparency. We have trashed more comments in the past 10 days than in the history of the site. Perhaps we need to tighten the filter even more.

In a way I don’t blame him for not posting in this format, anything he says would be jumped on by the annonomus hoards. As bad as I hate to agree with Dave, if you are’t able to put your name and specific incidents out here you’re just muck raking. Give specifics so they can be veted for validity.

Neither Sharon or a person with a vendetta but someone who wants the voters to see Case for who and what he is. Speaking of absence where is Case in all of this? Surely not answering questioned posed about his beliefs or trying to explain the situation.

EDITOR NOTE–Case adamantly denies all allegations in an e-mail to the GUARDIAN. All his former supervisors say there is no wrongdoing by Case or he wouldn’t have worked for them. Unless you have documentation or are willing to put your name on specific dates or incidents, it is time to back off. This forum is to INFORM and discuss, NOT to cast doubt or ruin reputations.

sig is probably Sharon incognito.. she sure is conspicuous by her absence isn’t she.. the state probably hasn’t advertised the job because they have figured out there really is no need for hearing officers.. with Olivia’s penchant for denying everyone’s application anyway. Does her license plate really read Denied?
I would have to ask why anyone would expect a system insider to be held to the same rules as an average citizen. When we have Austin Plew, the ADA county deputy who groped a woman in a downtown bar, the officer/deputy in Dirty Little Roddies drunk on the bull with not just 1 but 2 concealed weapons, the BPD officer with his tazer in someone’s crotch. The list goes on and unfortunately on and on and on. With such upstanding role models how can we expect our elected officials to not adhere to those same high standards?
Let’s face it folks the laws apply to each of us equally… except they are more equal to some than others.

If his resignation is not immediate than he is still in violation of state laws. If they are holding the position for him is that really having resigned or is it just taking a leave of absence. Once again color of the law or letter of the law. Just another example of shady dealings and how the rules don’t apply to him. Had his opponent missed the deadline to file I bet he would not just say oh she didn’t know the rules and let her name go on the ballot. If he truely is honorable he will withdraw his name from the ballot.

Maybe his resignation is effective on a certain date, has vacation time etc to use, then he can clean it out, whole hosts of reasons why not. Maybe they will not advertise his position for a bit to save money etc, who knows, ask them if you want why its not advertised yet, they will tell you I’m sure.

Since my comment about what I feel Dave Case believes in was classified ‘as over the line’ please let him tell us in his own words what he believes. Does he hold himself and others to the letter of the law, or the ‘color’ of the law? And if he was required to resign his position with the parole commission why has he not cleaned out his office, or his position been advertised? Or are they actually holding his position open for him?

Who cares why he quit a job or more, most of us have done this also. The true Dave Case looks pretty darn good, especially when his opponent lacks integrity.

He knew exactly what he was doing! And if he didn’t take the time to research the laws do we really want him making decisions for us? Perhaps his entire history needs to come forward an you will see the true Dave Case. First off he has quit the state three times now? So how is that a sixteen year career? And just why does he continue to ‘quit’ places?
