From Northampton County: "The Northampton County Sheriff’s Department has received reports about a male caller identifying himself as Sergeant Mike Weston in regards to a county resident being wanted for failing to appear for a court hearing. The caller than gives instructions on leaving a cashier check at a drop location.
"The public should be aware that this is a scam. The Sheriff’s Department does not call residents and solicit money in lieu of arrest.
"Please report any suspicious solicitations to the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s office at 800-441-2555 or email them at scams@attorneygeneral.gov"

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.
