As to the CP Zimmerman FBI Investigation: Does anyone but me remember the guy hired to do an independent investigation of the council after Brian Herron was indicted? The guy who came from out of town and left with a fat check. He gave the city council a clean bill of health, and soon after that announcement the FBI indicted CP Biernet.
I, for one, do not believe any of these council people should be there long term. The temptation is too great for SOME of them. I do not know whether CP Zimmerman is innocent or guilty, I will reserve judgment in all fairness. Will someone please tell me why so many council people are shredding documents? It should be mandatory that they keep document for review, since they represent the publics interest. On a sad note: I attended the funeral today of a great actitivist/advocate of education, name Evelyn Eubanks. She was the council Aide of Natalie Johnson-Lee. What saddened me was that CP Johnson-Lee was the only person from the council in attendance. I would think that the council, as a whole, would be present to mourn the loss of someone working for the city council. Let's be real, without Aides nothing would ever get done in the city council. Most of the emails and phone calls are answered by the council aides. So I would like to send my respect out to all of the Minneapolis city council aides. Evelyn Eubanks was instrumental in getting legislation past pertaining to the education of our children. She was a single parent to 6 children, all of whom she home schooled. Three of which went on to college. The younger three, two in highschool and one in elementary school, now have to attend public school or private schools. In her memory, a fund is being set up at TCF Bank under Evelyn Eubanks Scholarship Fund. The account should be up in approximately 1 week. There was a large amount of donations after the funeral. One thing we all love are our children and their education. All of my prayers go out to the Eubanks family. Michelle Hill Cleveland REMINDERS: 1. Be civil!
