Back to the Blog

Ok, so it's been a reeeeeeeally long time since I've been blogging. Chalk it up to summer being a time when the beast goes on a diet, laziness, or whatever, but I'm going to get back at it. I actually have a few things to talk about in upcoming entries, my seven days in the Findlay floods leaps to mind, but I'm going to come back with a rare burst of honesty in the news. On Sunday, Jennifer Jarrell and I chased a story about three guys who were arrested for allegedly breaking into the Omnisource and stealing copper. "Perp walks" are usually pretty uneventful. You sit at the police station for several hours until you finally get a few seconds of activity when the cops walk the guys they arrested down the hall to take them to jail. A large percentage of the time, the person will make an effort to hide their face. Reporters will usually toss a question or two at the perp, but he/she will rarely answer. If the person in cuffs has something to say, it's usually proclaiming innocence, but on Sunday, we got a rare burst of brutal honesty out of one of the three guys in custody...
