Disgraced Ex-Mayor to Run For Nazareth Borough Council

(I have crossed out Strye's exact street address)
Nazareth's ex-Mayor, Carl Strye, was accepted into the ARD program in late September, following a brief hearing before Judge FP Kimberly McFadden. That's a special program for first offenders in which the slate is wiped clean after a period of probation,which in his case is 12 months. He had been charged with felony theft for skimming $8,000 from the Vig, one of the Nazareth area's many social clubs. An admitted thief should have no say in what goes on in a police department, so I was gratified when the District Attorney insisted that Strye resign. He also had to admit what he is - a thief.

Yesterday, Strye filed nomination petitions for Nazareth Borough Council, 3rd ward.

  1. Admitted thief, forced to resign from his position as Mayor, ARD participant; great qualifications for the crooked borough council of Nazareth. If the voters of Nazareth elect him, you know there is something in their water.

  2. In that cesspool... the thief will be elected- I thought that if the crime was a shock to the public he would be banned from elected office?

  3. The guy is a thief and a jerk, but I have no doubt the pea brains in Nazareth will elect him.

    Fortunately, I will be gone from that dysfunctional borough before he takes office. School district is solid, but other than that the place really has nothing to offer.

  4. He will win. Guilty or not he embodies the mindset of a majority in the Borough. You can do no wrong unless you get caught. Then simply admit it and you will be forgiven. The law seemed to agree with this as well considering he and stoudt both got ARD for committiing felonies.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
