Update on the Kenneth Gladney case

As many loyal viewers of the Glenn Beck Show know one ongoing story that Glenn Beck has been following since the summer involved a black gentleman named Kenneth Gladney.  Like hundreds of thousands of Americans opposed to the radical government takeover of our nation’s health care sytem,Mr. Gladney went to a town-hall meeting this summer hosted by Rep. Russ Carnahan, Missouri Democrat. While passing out “Don’t Tread on Me” flags, he was viciously attacked by Service Employees International Union (SEIU) members. One called him a “nigger.”  Even though the attack was captured on video and is available on YouTube the local and state prosecutors have yet to file charges some 3 months later.

According to the intrepid writers at BigGovernment.com:

The story of Kenneth Gladney may finally be getting somewhere. County Counselor Patricia Redington, after waiting three months, has been forced to come out and defend her office in emails and in an interview with KMOX, a local St Louis radio station.  We’d say it was quick work, but waiting to look into charges of political violence until after healthcare reform comes to a vote seems to be the plan……

Redington is now responding to emails saying she is looking into the events, the investigation is still under review, and her office is interviewing witnesses.  This is one of her responses to a St Louis county resident about the affair.

There were several incidents at this event which required police intervention, and our office is reviewing the police report and has been interviewing various witnesses before making a final decision on what charges may be issued.

…..Redington says there were half a dozen possible criminal incidents at that event and she plans to announce her findings all at the same time. She did not give KMOX a timetable for the announcement. But, according to Redington, the incident, ‘definitely has not been swept under the rug.’”

…….For Redington to tell citizens and reporters the investigation is ongoing is a sign that pressure is getting to her.  If you’re from St Louis, keep it up.  And if you’re the Post Dispatch, anytime you want to pretend to be a real paper, you’re welcome to get involved.  We’ll even give you our notes.
