| The witnesses are all employees of Northwest School, who had previously served as volunteer crossing guards, and witnessed Lees behavior. Actually, they were all in the courtroom, waiting to be called, but Sauer didn't bother to call them.
I agree with you that this whole thing is politically motivated, and its coming from both sides. I would bet that someone supporting Lee put some pressure on Sauer to not prosecute a city commissioner as tough as he could have.
I don't think that Ramsour is directly involved in the politics, but is being used as a pawn by some other people. |
