OpenCDA Questions Tondee Motives

At OpenCDA.com, Bill McCrory argues that the Coeur d’Alene Press shouldn’t become involved in helping to identify a troll who posted a snarky remark in the Online Press comments section, while impersonating Commissioner Todd Tondee. Quoth McCrory: “OpenCdA hopes that the Coeur d’Alene Police Department Investigations Division Captain Ron Clark and Police Chief Wayne Longo look long and hard at the merits of and motives behind Tondee’s complaint.  Is Commissioner Tondee using the investigative resources and statutory authority of the Coeur d’Alene Police Department to identify an alleged offender whom he (Tondee) may then refuse to participate as the complainant in prosecuting if the alleged offender coughs up $500 to a local charity?” More here. Dunno what the SR would do with this one. Last year, the SR spent thousands of dollars trying to protect the identities of three Huckleberries Online commenters who were part of a suit filed by former Kootenai County GOP chairwoman Tina Jacobson.
