No wrongdoing found in city investigation

They ought to investigate Abilene. Hight property taxes but yet nothing for the kids to do here. No ymca, no movie theaters, no game places. They are always having sex here because there is nothing else to do here. They did away with a dollar tree because Alco put in a dollar store of their own that is only open on Saturdays. They didn't want the compition. They won't let another groceries store come in for the south side of town because the West country mart.

Daughter to plead with judge

why should they. They drink too and drive. The one in Abilene does. Judges, cops. all of them except the ones that are really church goers. I can't stand it when they preach to our kids not to smoke or drink when they themselves do it. How hipicritle can that be!!!!!!!!

10-year sentence given for sex crime

I grew up with one in my neighborhood. Their father let the oldest rape and his other sons. One is on the registered list. One went to prison for a killing a kid at a bar back in the early 80"s. The father still sale drugs. Yes 10 years is not long enough. Once a childs innocents is distoryed, it's distoyed forever. They should be put in prison for life. Your social life is never the same when you get older you get panic disorders. No means no.

Charges filed in school-gun incident

I raised in Emporia. Went to school all my life the class of 1980. Bullying was still going on there and I was bullied in my neighborshood . Teachers, Princeples would do nothing. If I knew now what I know now, I would not have social problem. My name is Julie Stone. I live in Abilene now. My 12 year old was being bullied all the time. I went to the teachers several times, they would talk to the student but still bulllied my son. I took it further to the councilor. They would talk to the student several times. Finally I went to the princeple they did the same. Here it is Febuary. Been to the school 1-3 times a week before Febuary. I finially told my son he had my permission to lay in on the boy. I made my last visit with the councilor. I told him I told my son he has my permission to lay in the boy and he would not be held responsible for his actions because we had went to the teachers, counciler and principle and I should not have ever had to go to the shcool for any reason only for conferences. I talked to the superintendent and told the exact same thing. It's been almost a month and haven't had a problem. I found out legally through my oldest son when he was abused at the Abilene High, I could have filed charges even if the police said I couldn't I could have went to the state. People needs to know there rights.
