Kurth said he felt cornered by Fox

| | Comments (5) |
Mayor Kurth told a Fox 11 producer yesterday he's now willing to go on camera and talk about the Carrari Ranch project. The two didn't exactly hit it off at first.

Kurth said he feared for his safety when producer Tim Harrell and a cameraman approached the dais after yesterday's special meeting. The mayor said he did not hear producer Harrell ask about the Carrari Ranch project; he just wanted to leave the room but the cameraman blocked his way.

Harrell said Kurth called him later to apologize.

Typically, at the evening City Council meetings, there are two sheriff's deputies situated on both sides of the dais. But because yesterday's meeting was a workshop, there were no deputies there and Harrell was able to approach the mayor. Kurth said the city might put up a sign or a rope there to prevent the public from approaching the dais.

"You certainly don't rush a court judge or the president," Kurth said.

The smell of bribe's and favor's blowing thru Rancho is very strong. Please don't insult the citizen's intelligence by telling us that , yes I took money from developer's but it didn't influence my voting record. Only a fool could believe that.

The reporter is fortunate to not have had a sheriff lay him out flat for approaching behind Council's podium.

RC Sheriff Capt. Joe Cusimano is no kitty cat.
I'd donate $$ to see the Capt. hammer the Fox reporter.
