Did Estero Bay News Miss the Point?

I have had enormous respect for Mr. Farrell’s reporting for many years and I still do.  He reports the facts.  I have no doubt his recent coverage of Sheriff Ian Parkinson’s presentation to the SLO County Board of Supervisors as required by the TRUTH ACT (and other State ordinances) was 100% accurate. 

But I am surprised and disappointed that the article didn’t explain why there were so many unhappy residents at the meeting!   Isn’t that the story after all?

I think maybe the Sheriff, the District Attorney, and The Estero Bay News are missing the point.

Think about it.
