DUNN PLACED MY FAMILY AT RISK

When the County Attorney was trying to gain access to the phone numbers dialed by the undercover drug agents with the Sheriff's Office Dennis Davenport told the press the county could protect condfidential numbers just as well as the Sheriff's Office can. That is obviously not true. Now Greg Dunn used his publicist Kevin Duffy to print in his newspaper the type of jacket I wear when I work undercover. They also printed my wife's name making it easy for the drug dealers I have arrested to find her. Greg Dunn is so anti-drug enforcement that he will put undercover officers families at risk to further his hatred for law enforcement.

It has been one week and we've yet to hear an explanation or apology from Dunn!
Why is he keeping silent about this? Did he bite off more than he could chew? Does he care?
Private information could be given out about any county employee... what is being done to protect personal information?

Two possibilities. He's given up and is resolved to the fact that he will probably lose to the developers trial lawyer candidate. Or...He has wised up and told Janet to shut up with her poor attempts to defend his abusive political bullying tactics that he has been able to get away with because of his position. I can hear him now....."Please Janet...shut the {{{{EDITED}}}} up and stop defending me on the Citizen Online. Your killing me you {{{{EDITED}}}}".

Where have all of Gregs supporters gone? Why have the voters abandoned the protector of the land use plan. Don't you understand that Maxwell is a sell out to the developers? Get Real once said he supported Greg at one time because of Gregs protection of the land use plan. What has changed other than a few bogus accusations against Greg and Linda? Is Eric Maxwell worth the price of Fayette County turning into Clayton County? I'm Just Askin.

He's just being funny. I hate having to fill in the blanks.

Hey Harvey- you can do better than that- your "one liners" are slipping-

Does Greg Dunn care that he has caused undue stress to the Pruitt family? Apparently not- Shouldn't the Commissioners stand by our officers instead of tearing them down?
What recourse does this family have:
Take it to court- probably not;
Demand an apology- doubtful they will get one;
See if the other Commissioners take action against Dunn- who knows.
I hope as a community we don't let Dunn's actions go unpunished. Just voting him out of office is not punishment. We need to make a stand and send a message that this behavior by an elected official is not going to be tolerated. Dunn has gotten away with too much for far too long-

uh oh!

It is a sad state of affairs when a person can put someone family at risk,Mike goes out everyday and helps protect my children from drugs and crime and someone who has it out for the Sheriff and does not know what it is like to do Mike's job can so easily put his family at risk. Mr. Dunn I hope you read this paper and I hope you read this, what if your own family was put at risk by the same act of neglect that you did. The voters of Fayetteville need to replace Mr. Dunn as soon as possible before he gets someone killed. Keep up the good work Mike

Thanks for the job you've done. Maybe we can put Greg in your jacket and let him walk the streets of Fayettedale for a couple of nights. The only good news with all this is that Greg is dunn for sure now. Take care and watch yourself and your family.

Sorry vox for ruining the blogs for you. You'll get over it I'm sure.

Putting the names in was unnecessary. The whole jacket thing was overblown but the names were not needed. I agree.

I didn't realize what an idiot Greg Dunn was! It's clear that he DOES NOT have our county's best interest at heart nor does he care about anything or anyone but himself! His personal vendetta against the Sheriff's Office has caused him to step over the line... WAY OVER THE LINE! Thank God the Judge saw fit not to give in to Greg Dunn & Linda Wells concerning confidential information or it would be plastered all over the front page of the newspapers too! I hope Mike Pruitt & his wife seek legal advice in regards to Greg Dunn's reckless comments to the paper. I thought our elected officials were supposed to be on OUR SIDE. It seems that Greg Dunn has joined the side of the criminals with his latest comments.

This worries me because I know who Mike is. When you read about the large deals in Fayette he is in the center of it. Greg Dunn do you not realize what you're doing? Do you not know families suffering from the delima of drugs? Lose you're obsession with the Sheriff and his employees. Your treading on serious ground now. Good peoples families are involved.

Mike, you put your life on the line everyday to rid our streets of drugs and other violent crime. You and your family deserved more respect than this.DUNN HAS TO GO!

Such behavior cannot be condoned when it occurs.

I consider it criminal.

This name revealing is no surprise coming from Dunn and the county lawyers who lied and said they could keep it secret. This is part of their status quo.

The surprise is that a newspaper would put it out there. Why couldn't it have just said "an agent and his wife".

The way all newspapers "think" is that the minute Dunn mentions the name that is news and completely fair to repeat it in print. There is no civic responsibility whatsoever in their decisions. It is all about who is first with the news and who has the best details.

I think they are trying to indict someone in Washington for doing a similar thing with CIA undercover workers. Mr. Pruitt does the new DA know about this? It seems it would be illegal.

Wouldn't an indictment be sweet. Not having to worry about a six month lame duck with his butt on his shoulders.

Submitted by Harvey on Mon, 06/05/2006 - 7:47pm.

If Dunn spent his lame duck last six months with his butt on his shoulders how would we know the difference?
