Regarding #10 -

Eddie Lynn Keck pleaded "not guilty" yesterday.

So where is the City of Franklin at with it's "due process" investigation of The Buckhorn. It appears that the bar had video surveillance and the District Attorney is using that to try to prove level of intoxication since they do not have blood test evidence. It appears that they may still need the bartenders to testify in order to lock-up the case against Mr. Keck. That's fine but the bartenders should not be let off for continuing to serve this obviously intoxicated known habitual drunkard. These bartenders should not be given immunity to testify and those surveillance tapes should be used to prove if they are negligent in this matter. If so the bars license should be revolked and it shouldn't take forever to do that.

Scott makes a valid point.

I attended the Common Council meeting on January 8th and listened to Mayor Taylor and each Alderman say they would make sure "due process" was followed.

Read my report from that meeting:

Is it time to contact our elected officials?
