“IS IT TRUE” SEPTEMBER 12, 2019

5
We hope that today’s “IS IT TRUE” will provoke honest and open dialogue concerning issues that we, as responsible citizens of this community, need to address in a rational and responsible way?
IS IT TRUE that our Ellis Park “Moles ” just informed us that as of yesterday there has been a change in the role of executive leadership at this historic race track?  …as of yesterday, Jeff INMAN assumed the responsibilities as General Manager of Ellis Park?
IS IT TRUE we posted the following comment in the City-County Observer on September 10, 2019?  …we posted “IS IT TRUE we were just informed by a credible source that a Harrison High School student was arrested yesterday? …he was found to be in possession of a loaded handgun while at school?  …this is a developing story”?
IS IT TRUE some of our readers find it interesting that members of the mainstream media didn’t immediately inform the general public about this serious security breach at Harrison High School?
IS IT TRUE yesterday we received the following press release from the EPD Media Relations Director,  Sergeant Jason Cullum?  …Sergeant Cullen stated the following: “Evansville Police arrested a 14-year-old high school student on weapons charges on September 9th. A Harrison High School employee contacted police about a recently enrolled student possibly being in possession of a handgun. There were no claims of any threats being made by the student, only that he had a gun.”  “An EPD officer, working with school administrators, immediately removed the student from class and investigated the complaint. During the investigation, the officer found a small-caliber handgun in the student’s pocket. The student was taken into custody without incident.”  “He was placed in a secure youth holding facility on charges of possession of a firearm at school and possession of a firearm by a child.”  “The Evansville Police Department and the Evansville Vanderburgh School Corporation view student safety as a top priority. The ongoing safety partnership between the two organizations resulted in a serious situation being resolved in a professional and timely manner.”
IS IT TRUE some of our readers wonder why the officials at EVSC hasn’t sent out a press release explaining why this security breach happened at Harrison High School?
IS IT TRUE we give five (5) cheers to members of the Evansville Police Department for resolving this potentially dangerous situation without conflict?
“IS IT TRUE we been told that the downtown EID (Economic Improvement District) 2020 budget proposes a $10,000 salary increase for the Executive Director? …we hope whoever prepared this budget made a typing mistake? ..we wonder what funding source is this guy salary coming from?  …we also wonder who are the members of the EID (Economic Improvement District) Board Of Directors?
IS IT TRUE that Sportsbook wagering will become available at Tropicana-Evansville starting today at 11:00 am?
Todays “READERS POLL” question is: Do you feel that the officials at EVSC should inform the public why did the security breach happened at Harrison High school?
