UNACCEPTABLE!
If this claim is proven to be true it is an unacceptable and chilling event and those responsible should be punished to the fullest extent of the law.  According to the news reports, the FBI is now involved in this case with rumors of racketeering charges being floated around.


MORE NEWS TOMORROW
Apparently a news conference is scheduled for some time Thursday to more fully expand on this story.  That should be interesting.  Stay tuned.
