  • Innocent until proven guilty

    By Lindsay Kriz

    KPA Summer Intern

     

    Like half the population of the United States (and at this point, even the world), I took an interest in the Casey Anthony trial, which recently reached a verdict, as most of you already know. I wouldn't say I was obsessed with it on a Nancy Grace scale, but I would tune in every once in a while to watch the trial and home videos that were broadcast on every news channel.

  • Don't get beat by the heat

    With the way things have been going this summer, maybe we should all take a lesson from the Dallas Mavericks.

    That's right, we need to do what we can to beat the heat.

    Weather forecasters are calling for temperatures in the 90s in several parts of Kentucky this week, with the potential for heat indexes as high as 110 degrees. For our purposes, the heat index would be the opposite of wind chill factor.

  • Keep Chugging Along

    Despite all the talk about enhanced 911 in Marion County, previous trips have been sidetracked repeatedly. This time, however, the effort may be picking up steam.

    In March, the Marion County Fiscal Court and the Lebanon City Council agreed to share the costs of the mapping and addressing that must be completed before E911 can be put in place.

  • Don't forget about Kara

    Every day when I arrive to work and when I leave to go home, I see Kara Tingle Rigdon's face.

    For months, a missing person's poster has been taped on the Enterprise's front door that includes Kara's photo and information about her disappearance.

    This Sunday, July 17, will mark the one-year anniversary of when she was last seen.

  • Jeff Wooldridge's statement on his dismissal as animal control officer

    When I first became the Animal Control Officer for Marion County back in March of 2007, I had no idea exactly what would be required to do this job. It was way more demanding than I could have ever anticipated. Even my animal background did not prepare me for the physical and mental requirements that are necessary in being an Animal Control Officer and operating an Animal Shelter.

  • Letter: Police seek neighborhood watch participants

    The Lebanon Police Department would like to start a Block Watch program in your neighborhood, but we need the help of the good citizens of Lebanon. 

    Even though we patrol your neighborhood, we are only there for a short period of time. As a resident, you know better than anyone what is happening in your neighborhood.

    By meeting once a month in a relaxed atmosphere, this program will help the Lebanon Police Department to better serve the citizens of our community.
