Late last night, specifically at 10:39PM & 11:02PM two comments were made under the name Terry Parish. The comments were listed on our posting Why & How Loomis Wanted David Andrews Removed As Oro Valley Town Manager - Part 2 dated Sept. 27.
The comments made allegations about another person, and upon reading the two comments early morning, I saw fit to remove them both.

Note to our readers--- The above two comments from TERRY PARISH were removed because they were malicious, personal attacks against another person.
Parish, as an officer of the law should certainly know better than to defame another person's reputation for no other reason than vindictiveness.
Parish should also recall that some time ago, during his tenure on the OV Council, I removed comments from this blog that alluded to his personal life.
For him to write what he did here is unconscionable and I believe action from the Sheriff's department may be in order.
My apologies to those readers that may not have seen the comments, as I will not be any more specific.

Art,
Thank you for deleting whatever it is you are talking about. I didn't send anything to this blog. I recieved a call asking me what I had written my reply nothing.
I have been taking care of my kids and sick wife. Frankly I'm too busy.
I have changed my passwords in case someone had figured them out, but whats to stop anyone frome using my name or yours as a pseudonym to post a message.
I would certainly not endanger my job for this blog. This incident illustrates for me how and why blogs can be dangerous.
PS If it has my name attached just delete it because as I said its not me I'm too busy.

Although Terry Parish works for the Pima County Sheriff's Department, I'm sure he would appreciate if any of our readers may be able to assist him in identifying who may have been responsible for perpetrating this dastardly deed.
Many of our readers have gotten to know Parish, either as an ex-council member who lost his re-election bid last year, or by his most recent comments about me---

"Art you keep acting like a little Nazi trying to pacify your friends and silencing your critics."
Perhaps Parish was a victim of identity theft when he referred to me as "acting like a little Nazi."

To Our readers---- I believe most of our readers, with the exception of only a couple, have greater than average intelligence.
Therefore, we will let everyone decide how much credence to put into this last comment by Mr. Parish.
