Keith Henderson should resign!

Ok, MJ died and blighted anything that resembled news so I didn't know that David Camm's conviction was overturned. AGAIN! For the same reason as last time!!

Keith Henderson is an idiot and this is proof positive! Good ole Keith bankrupted New Albany with the first two trials. That is why there isn't a decent road in the whole city and ABSOLUTELY NOTHING for our youth to do here but get in trouble and become another VICTIM of the backward justice and law enforcement systems in place in New Albany!

Now, there will be no third trial because, A) The coffers are dry! Keithy says that money is not an issue, even though he concedes the city can't afford it, and a triple murderer shouldn't just be allowed to roam free. But, if not for the second Camm trial that is just what Charles Boney would have done. B) The Supreme Court said KH had to have REAL evidence this time and he just doesn't. And while, state paid experts CLAIM Jill had injuries consistent with sexual abuse, how can you believe them? To say the New Albany police bungled this case is putting it mildly! Hell, David Camm's defense team had to do the police department's job and connect Charles Boney to the crime when the evidence was there all the time!

Some may now conclude that I am a Camm fan and you can think that but I am not. I am a justice fan. I am a fan of seeing people get what is coming to them on the playing field that we have been given! Innocent people are found guilty everyday for multitudes of crimes and conversely the guilty go free on a regular basis! Our justice system sucks and people pay with their lives!

Keith Henderson should resign before he can do anymore damage to this community.

Why this blog!

Hi, and welcome to my first attempt at blogging. After making the decision to finally go to college at 43, I sat down to do what I do best. Research!

It didn't take long for me to discover that if you are 43 years old and returning to, or in my case, just beginning, college there was a dearth of information. Where were the horror stories, the success stories, the statistics? Where were the adults full of fear and trepidation at the idea of taking college algebra or writing an essay? Where were the "Everything you will ever need to know websites"?

It was always my intent to chronicle my journey through higher education, just not in a public forum. But after having found next to nothing on the web for non-traditional students I decided to create a blog instead of just keeping a personal journal. The only problem? What did I know about blogging? Nothing! REASEARCH! I found a great site that had step by step instructions on setting up a blog, watched most of the 118 videos (seriously!) and Viola! This blog!

The exact direction of this site is currently not clear to me but my main goal is to just share my experiences and adventures with you as I start college after a 26 year hiatus. Eventually, I would like this to be a place for all nontrads to find helpful information on a variety of topics.

Check back often as this site, like my life, is a non-traditional work in progress.
