re: text of Linda Payne letter/gift to commissioners.

The raise you gave us then cut in half is simply another example of crud that you thrust upon the criminal attorneys for the County. To give us the raise and then take it away the next day is yet another example of your disrespect for loyal county employees at the Public Defender and Prosecuting Attorney's offices. We'll add it to the comments previously made by you and your ilk -- that our bosses are "chicken (manures)" for inviting us to an open public meeting regarding our salaries, that monkeys could do our jobs, and that your civil attorneys are "more equal" than we are.

The next time you choose to give us something, please lubricate and/or kiss first. Vaseline and red lipstick are enclosed (please excuse the small amounts -- I don't make that much to give you how much you need or deserve).

L. Payne
Deputy Public Defender.
