Messenger Post Newspapers covered the story on the (trumped up) charges against GOP offical Andrew Moore being thrown out by Judge Richard Keenan.  It’s too bad it took this long for this malicious attack on Mr. Moore and his family by the District Attorney’s Office to end.  This will go down in local history as [...]

It’s starting to look like it.  We told you about his former Navy shipmates yesterday.
The New York Post added more to the story this morning:
