You know when you are heading for victory when anonymous posters attack and ridicule you. It always out of fear, hatred, and jealousy that these "stalker trolls" attack you when you are on the brink of success and triumph.

Therefore, I ask for your support for Sheriff of Suffolk County. I am starting early in effort to run an aggressive and triumphant campaign.

Today was not a good day to attempt a walk around Deer Island with a kidlet wearing summer pants. So we drove around Winthrop instead.

Question time is closed. Now it's time to pick the five questions to pose to the DA.
You're in a room with Suffolk County District Attorney Dan Conley. He's waiting for your questions. So what would you ask him?
Here's your chance. We're going to experiment with a public interview, where you, not some reporter, decides what to ask. Conley has agreed to take your questions in this format:
Over the next couple of days, post possible questions as a reply here. I'll pick what seem like 10 good questions. Then we'll vote on the questions - the top five most popular ones will get submitted to Conley. He'll have next week to come up with answers, which I'll post on July 9 - and which you'll then be able to discuss.
The only request Conley made was: No questions on specific cases. But that still leaves plenty of other areas to ask him about. For example: Violent crime; gangs; murder conviction rates; witness intimidation; gun control; a shortage of jurors; the death penalty. I'm sure you can come up with other topics.
