At least one Blogger who says that the alleged charges made by credible Board members against Peoples’ Settlement House Executive Director KEITH LAKE were baseless, and dropped and were dead and buried, might want to rethink her position at this point.
Apparently she was NOT part of a serious meeting held at the Attorney General’s office on Thursday morning. After a comprehensive package of evidence was presented to the Attorney General by certain board members, he decided to officially open the investigation of possible misuse of public money (to buy a personal home), and a very possible forgery of a Board member’s signature.
A litany of well known and well respected board members raised the issue some time ago…and it took until now to finally get a go-ahead by the AG’s office. Board members were very upset and want the very productive Peoples’ Settlement programs to go on…but not without first cleaning up some alleged very damaging activies. EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR KEITH LAKE IS THE REPORTED TARGET OF THE INVESTIGATION.
Some of those Board members, who have backed the programs for a long time, want this matter resolved: Dennis Williams, Charles Potter, Greg Collins. Myron Neal, Anto Oakley, John Buckley, Dwyght Holden want the issue investigated.
It’s something that HAS to be looked into….I saw some of the paperwork last year…and it sure looks like serious criminal activity to me….but what do I know? The AG’s investigators are top notch guys and they will do their job well, I’m sure.
Stay tuned….it should not take long.

I was not one of the people on the Board of Directors who wanted the matter of Keith Lake being investigated. I was satisified that the charges were of no basis, and to include me as one who wanted to continue is a lie.

I think that there should be an investigation of the Market Street PAL run by Mrs. Potter. She and her board fires her executive director annually The newest director hired was on the PAL board and is an immediate Potter family member. Is there a national set of bylaws for PAL centers? This can’t be a proper way to run a PAL.
There is bad morale and regular staff changes and bad money management there.
Dennis Williams has to run to the JFC to shovel cash their way every year too. What is up with that?

NANCY, NANCY, NANCY……you are doing exactly what the neo con republicans do…..IF YOU CAN’T DEAL WITH THE FACTS AT ISSUE, YOU GO RIGHT TO ANOTHER TOPIC…..AND TRY TO THROW BLAME ON ANOTHER PERSON, ON ANOTHER ISSUE. You’re like the people who after hearing of a credible accusation about Bush, respond by saying, “Oh heah;
well what about Clinton, blah, blah, blah”.
Stick with the issue under discussion…….THE AG’S OFFICE HAS FOUND JUSTIFIABLE REASONS TO RE-OPEN AN INVESTIGATIN OF SERIOUS ALLEGATION OF ALLEGED FORGERY AND ALLEGED THEFT…that is the issue and THAT alone…not the PAL or the Potters.
If anything you say about the PAL and/or the Potters is true, then go get the evidence and march to the AG and make your case….otherwise,
your accusations (without a single piece of proof) is nothing by a feeble, empty attempt to skirt the REAL issue….namely, that you ,and his other backers, have no crediblity at all. You’re not producing anything except a display of your inane pathetic attempt at denial.
