Today I got really involved with the story about the dogs of skid row in Los Angeles. This story is evidently well-known and nobody in authority is acting on it. The animal rescue groupls are trying their best, but the city authorities are doing just about zip. It is a public disgrace.
Lee could have covered that story standing on his ear. He was a marvelous reporter and newsman. He would have gotten to the bottom of it by Monday, or at least found out enough about what was going on to set up a series of articles.
Being as today is Saturday, all public offices in LA are closed, but he would have done primary digging at first and worked his way up. By Monday he would have been on the phone to Mayor Bass’s office to at least hear the cover story they have prepared.
The raid on that woman’s property was totally illegal. They never showed her any kind of paper, or summons, or document. They also took her cell phone. Gestapo, anyone?
I do intend to cover this more, but it will take me a lot longer to do so than it would have taken him.
Somehow, there is a money trail waiting to be uncovered. I wonder if Mayor Bass is around or if she is on another one of her many trips to Cuba.
I am really, really tired right now.
Pray for our troops.
See you tomorrow.
God bless everybody.

Lee’s footprints can only be filled by Lee. Thankfully, we have the hope stated in God’s word, so the final chapter still lies in the future. It would be interesting to see what he would have done with this story.
