Whatever your views on drugs or crime and punishment, this is a poorly written article by a woman who obviously loves law enforcement to a fault, and doesn't understand her role as a reporter is to be objective. This is not just bad journalism; it is jingoism and yellow journalism. The reporter needs to revisit journalism 101, and not assume everyone on the other side of the law is subhuman.report abuseNH NH

How is selling Oxycontin a "health issue"? It's a criminal issue. Working with users to get them off drugs is one thing. Giving stealers and dealers a free pass is quite another.report abuseYou must be a registered user of MaineToday.com to post a comment. Register or log in.
