Speak Up: Auditor case sheds light on Delaware’s whistleblower policies
The path toward an extremely high-profile indictment announced recently began when a dozen or so people stepped forward to express concern. That voice prompted a year-plus-long investigation involving Democratic State Auditor Kathy McGuiness by the Delaware Department of Justice, leading to two felonies and three misdemeanors against the auditor.
- “High-profile indictment” translation: She angered some corrupt Democrats. The AG and DOJ have done worse things than this. Is this a deflection? — Beth Gallagher
- But Republicans turn a blind eye to their own corruption — Rick Reed
- McGuiness had no business being in there in the first place. She lacked experience. — Calvin Sparks
- Delaware and the deep corruption. Nothing new, and voters keep voting the same in and don’t hold any of them liable for their actions. Until voters make their voices heard through voting, nothing will change. — Jeff Grzeszczak
Claymont park design described as ‘love letter’ to city
The northern Delaware city known for its industrial history and century-old steel mill may soon see new, green life in the form of Electric Arc Park. A design for the park was created by students of the Coastal Resilience Design Studio, based at the University of Delaware. The plan gives a huge nod to the history of the site and its former industrial steel mill.
- Great job, UD! I appreciate your vision and passion. — Mark Pilotte
