Newspaper killed Jerome candidacy

WESTMINSTER — In your recent issue you have this front-page story, next to a photo of a roundtable of candidates at the library, without Cindy Jerome - and a long letter, “Candidate Jerome: Implications about Holton Home finances unfounded.”

For all intents and purposes, you have killed Cindy Jerome's candidacy, not to mention smeared her reputation and integrity.

I do not know Cindy Jerome. Never met her, don't know the first thing about her.

All I know is this concentrated fire of yours, saying in effect she is not a crook.

Well guess what?

That's all I'm going to remember when I see her name on the ballot.

And I'm probably not going to be the only one.

This is how you kill a candidate and ruin a life.

Now, see if you can do the same on some of the bigger fish in D.C.

Shame on you!
