WWWE Files: The Wicked Witch and the Beeping Cabbie

The date is April 5, 2011. Time is 6:26 AM. Tricia Mezzacappa is a candidate for West Easton Borough Council, and Easton Patrolman Charles McConagle is dispatched to her home, in response to a complaint about a "beeping cab." In addition to her gripes about a poor cabbie, who had stopped on the street to pick up a neighbor, she had numerous complaints about those people, too. You see, they're black. They "should have stayed in the projects."

When Officer McConagle reminded her that people can live where they want in this country, she told the patrolman that once elected to Borough Council, she'd have the Easton Police Department removed.

Officer McConagle spoke to the neighbors about this incident, learning that Mezzacappa had told one of them to "take your black ass back to Philadelphia." Mezzacappa also used the word "niggers," and the Easton cabbie later told the patrolman that he heard her use this term, too.

Though a candidate for West Easton Borough Council at the time, Mezzacappa told police she was moving out "because of these people."

This is the person who was endorsed by the Save Gracedale mob. This is the person who was celebrating with Scott Parsons after he defeated Ron Angle in the County Council race. Does this mean they are racists like Tricia, too? No, much as I detest their lynch mob mentality, they were simply fooled by her.

So was I.

Not anymore.

    Clearly the officer is lying, because we all know cops would fraudulently and criminally falsify a document and risk being thrown in jail, lose their jobs and destroy ther families in order to smear Twitcha Mezzacrappa. The Mayor probably bribed the cops to falsify the report! The council probably destroyed the report that proved Bernie maliciously attacked her pet pig Mr. Mezzacrappa. I feel bad for this woman that her poor addled brain keeps letting her down!

    Ever see the movie "The Devil Wears Prada?" It's like that, except in this case it's "The Devil Wears Wal-Mart."

    Mezzacappa should send the cop a thank you note for not arresting her. Irately confronting a neighbor and a cabbie on a public street - screaming and behaving as if "she was on something" - while dropping the f-bomb and the n-word fits the definition of disorderly conduct as a misdemeanor of the third degree. This cop seems to have been especially troubled by the racial animosity expressed by Mezzacappa, even though he decided to give her a pass.

    It is clear from the police report that Tricia Mezzacappa intended to intimidate the officer by pointing out that she was a candidate for West Easton Borough Council. Neither her candidacy nor her future political goals were relevant to why the officer was on Ridge Street that morning. She attempted to abuse her public office even before she had been elected to public office. The voters of West Easton wisely and resoundingly rejected her. Now, if she would just keep her word and move out.

    WTF does an Easton police officer care that someone is a candidate for West Easton Borough Council? That is hilarious - the lofty image these people have of themselves in their role in society.
