Cathy Allen, Secret Investigator

Northampton County Executive John Brown, who wishes he had ten Cathy Allens, has put the only one he has on a new mission. She's been driving her County-supplied car from one end of the courthouse parking lot to the other so she can investigate goings-on at the jail.

Allen, who has no education or experience in corrections or the law, or any education at all for that matter, has been interrogating employees at the jail over the past several weeks. Maybe she's about to expose a contraband ring.  After all, she solved the scalding water problem at Gracedale, according to Brown. That only cost us $400,000. And she's the one who was investigating gap insurance in July, although the index of emails supplied by the County reveals she did not look into that until he was brought to her attention by a cost control contractor. And not until October.

Maybe she'll learn that the jail is understaffed and someone is going to get hurt or worse unless positions are filled soon.

Why hasn't this incompetent menace been fired yet? Brown is an educated man and by now should realize that Allen has done more to harm his administration than help it. She is a reckless trouble-maker who cheated on her travel expense account and rather than be disciplined for violating county policy, was rewarded with a county car and reserved parking space. Brown must owe her big time to put up with her arrogance and incompetence.

She is a fool working for a tool.

To say she has no education is not only untrue but demeaning to the many people who's highest level of formal education is a high school diploma.

It is the height of snobbery to suggest someone without a college degree can be an effective public servant, look where your fancy law degree from Dickinson got you.

Leave poor young Bernie alone, Moldy Labia!

Cathy Allen has no qualifications and an insufficient education for the job she has.

Go get some more Vodka to go with your vegan hot chocolate. It's a long night.

I think I made abundantly clear that Allen has Neither education Nor experience in corrections or the law. She is incompetent to make any inquiries at the jail. You read what you want to read so you can take things out of context and make false arguments. Do that on your crazy blog..

"Allen, who has no education or experience in corrections or the law, or any education at all for that matter,"

Didn't take anything out of context your words are clear, people with only a high school diploma are unworthy in your erudite eyes. As the pounds pile on to your already portly frame the venom becomes more caustic, a veritable cauldron of misinformation so toxic even Angle now keeps you at arms length.

Mezzacrazy, Better get to work on that brief. No further extensions. Also, you need to produce the Toyota RAV that Sheriffs levied on.

How will Bernie ever get a nickel out of a poor senior citizen from NJ. No judge will force her to give a nickel to Mr. O'Hare. She has great lawyers and have assured her she has nothing to worry about, as I have heard.

Matt should calm down.

4:56. Allen is HARDLY a "poor young woman." She is probably in her 50's and is definitely not a shrinking violet. Stop being so dramatic. She has created her vile reputation and is proud of it.

I'm sure brownie will say she has the right "skill set" to do the job.

Allen is to Brown as Hillary was to Bill..the brains of the operation!

If Allen is the brains, they are in a lot of trouble. More like brain-dead. But she IS a valuable member of Brown's "high performance team" AKA "The Blundering Herd."

Great name for a rock band- "Johnnie Brownpants and the Blundering Herd"!

I stand corrected. And she is definitely the dullest tool in the shed.

Do not under estimate the evil she is capable of. A vicious mean streak just under the surface, crooked smile. Beware!

Don't forget the Star Trek ear piece she wears all the time. getting secret messages from the commander in Chief Brown at all times, and secretly recording the meetings with her blue tooth device to have a "record" of the events.

She is Brown's evil puppet. What the hell does Campos do?

93 Thousand Dollars a year??? Sad sad sad. And shame on council or any one else who allowed this. This county is going to hell. Shame on this administration and on Brown. No leadership, no experience, no clue...

@1:45 p.m. Campos collects a check that is what he does. He also attends retirement parties as JB's side kick.

Another Brown sock puppet.

So genuine for Brown and his minions to take the time in their busy schedules screwing employees to attend retirement parties.
