You Reap What You Sow

We have heard that quite a few of the posted comments have ruffled some feathers in the police department. In the interest of harmony, peace and fairness, we've not only refused to post any name calling comments, but we've also removed any already posted insulting comments. Those who have taken personal offense to those comments must look within themselves. Let us remind you that it was YOUR actions and personal reputation that invited those attacks and its not our job to defend you!

How Does Stubby Spend $25,000?

In the Daily News on Tuesday May 27th, there appeared an article on the dedication of the new war memorial. It talked about how our beloved mayor asked the state for $25,000 to "overhaul" the monument. At the dedication, the senator's aid, and daughter of the mayor, spoke of how the senator "sends his congratulations and appreciates all you (the mayor) do for the City of Duquesne."

So, we ask, what about securing money for the benefit of the town? What about bringing in new business and not screwing the ones we have? What about cleaning up more than the memorial and clean up Grant Avenue? If you haven't noticed, the newly planted flowers in the park don't make the drug dealers any prettier. We hate to break this to you stubby but Dairy Mart, a barber shop, a women's clothing store and a couple of bars don't make a "shopping district!"

By the way, have you seen the parklet at Grant and 837? Overgrown weeds, empty heroin packets and crack baggies, how inviting that is!

And Now, A Word From Our Sponsors

With regard to the posted comments, we have permitted 98% of all comments that we have received. The other 2% however, we have not posted for viewing. The purpose of this blog is to expose the waste, corruption and illegal, (we repeat ILLEGAL) activity that continues in city hall. This blog is a forum for that information only and not a platform for small-minded idiots to use for personal attacks, name calling and outright cruel vendettas. Therefor, if you want to call someone a "crack whore" or "piece of shit," say it to their face or start your own blog but it will not appear here.

As for our stance, we have whenever possible, showed the links, paperwork, etc. that proves our point. If you don't like it, don't read it! As for now, we will remain in the background but we promise this: Once Krivacek is out of office and Adams is prosecuted for his many criminal actions, our goals will be attained and we will come out of the shadows and show all who we are.

... and now, back to our regulary scheduled program.

Ouch!

When interviewed by BDH Magazine, Duquesne Mayor stubby was asked to share his thoughts on the Duquesne Dirty Secrects blog. His only response was "Now I know how those poor devils feel during one of those Canadian Seal Hunts, that club hurts!"

Why We Do What We Do

An email inquired as to why we are coming forward with all of this. Why bother you ask? Our answer was best summed up by Irish orator, philosopher, & politician Edmund Burke (1729 - 1797):
xx

"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil

is that good men do nothing."

xx

We agree, Mr. Burke, we agree!

The Benefits of Being the Mayor's Daughter

Interesting that stubby's little girl was appointed Assistant Secretary to the Steel Valley Authority and asked to serve as an advisor for the YWCA and Treasurer for the League of Women Voters of Greater Pittsburgh. Daddy also got her a nice, well-paying job working for a Pennsylvania Senator. So what education does she have that makes her qualified for this state position? Why her degree in Theatre Arts, of course!

xx

Talk about an irony, theatre drama masks represent Tragedy & Comedy, the two words that best describe her father's administration.

x

By the way, did we mention that she has a half-brother who is the business associate of an indicted drug dealer? (see April 26, 2008 post: Drugs, Money, Paper Companies and Duquesne City Hall). Hmmm, wonder if the senator is aware of this.

The More We Dig, The More We Find

It is refreshing to know that we aren't the only people who are fed up and disgusted with the years of lousy management, greed and continued nepotism. Thanks to all who continue to send us more dirty secrets. Your comments and emails are appreciated. We have so much more to share and of course prove.

xx

FYI - We've not heard from stubby and crew but I guess you can't deny what's in black & white (or black & blue).

One of These Stations is Not Like the Other

A recent article in the Daily News reiterated that new hires must find residence in Duquesne within 6 months. If this is to promote city pride and breathe life back into the business community, why is the city not spending our tax dollars here?
i.e.
Q.:Where does Duquesne buy tires for its vehicles?
A.: Whitaker Tire
Q.: Where does the city do its banking?
A.: McKeesport
Q.: Where does Duquesne buy its gas when there two stations here that are as competitive?
A.: Monzak's in West Mifflin

Way to promote local business, there stub!

Stubby Doesn’t Disappoint With More of the Same

We see from Wednesday’s newspaper article that it’s business as usual when it comes to Duquesne business. Mayor stubby appointed the daughter of the recently deceased Controller. The new City Controller is a self described “Stay at home mom” with a business degree from Pitt at Johnstown. Well... what better credentials can one have?

The article went on to say; “Even with a reduced force, city police have been able to carry out a recent drug warrant sweep involving Allegheny County Detectives.” In reality, it was the Allegheny County Police (numbering over 40) who carried out the drug warrants with the Duquesne Police (numbering about 4) tagging along.

The City also swore in three new officers. Although the article mentioned that all three have six months to secure residences in Duquesne, it did not mention that if one or more of the new officers gains favor with the mayor by marrying into the family, washing his car, buying his dinner, or just being his buddy, they will be exempt from the residency ordinance.

The Taxpayer Pays Again

There are now two full-time officers on "light duty" in the Duquesne Police Department. One of them is due to a "temporary" ailment but the other, we're told, is permanently disabled from performing police duties. So, we ask why is he on the desk? Can't Duquesne better utilize that twenty+ dollars per hour for another officer on the street? Isn't that what a pension is for?

More taxpayer $$$ goes up in smoke!

So... What Does Go On In City Hall?

Another report of our Duquesne tax dollars hard at work once again. A little bird tells DDS that just about every day, there is a recreational pow-wow in the city manager's office with many attending. We hear that sometimes this social gathering lasts all the way until lunch.

Hmmm... it's good to be the mayor's son-in-law.

Introducing A New Publication

Oh the Games the City Plays

We heard through the grapevine that the city (stubby) after firing two police officers, one of which was recently awarded for exceptional service, took steps to deny both men unemployment compensation. Fortunately like most of Krivacek's attempts to screw anybody he can, this one too blew up in his face and the officers were awarded unemployment.

Just don't forget guys, you have to pay Pennsylvania back after you win your federal lawsuit!

To Answer Some of Your Questions...

After listening to some scuttlebutt around town it seems that some people are still unclear about this blog. A few specific questions have arisen about what we've been writing. We'll try to answer them.

xx

Q: Is any of this stuff true?

xx

A: All that we're presented is fact and we have provided as much support documantation as possible. Where we did not actually show the black and white proof, we've provided the clickable link or told how and where to retrieve the documents. As to other accusations, we do have the actual paperwork but can not display it because it is inappropriate or confidential and can (and will) be given to law enforcement for criminal investigation.

xx

Q: Who is doing this?

xx

A: We are locals. We're taxpayers who are tired of seeing our hard-earned money wasted by arrogant and crooked bureaucrats. We live here but work elsewhere and have the right to drive through town without being harassed or have our car windows broken. We are city employees who are sick of being treated like its a privilege to work for the mayor and his council of cronies. We are not criminals or drug dealers but decent, hard-working people who were taught that honestly and integrity mean something. We are tired of being lied to before election day and tired of being taken advantage as our tax dollars are being wasted.

xx
Q: Why are we exposing all this dirty laundry?

xx

A: We are exposing this "stuff" because those who we speak of are not honest, they wouldn't know integrity if it bit them on their backsides. For their offices, they took an oath to serve and well as protect the residents of this town. They have failed this oath as they are only in their offices to stuff their own pockets as they exist under the motto "what's in it for me?" We have shown that without conscience, Krivacek and Adams have betrayed their offices, the citizens they swore to serve and even their own families.

xx

Q: What do we want to accomplish by exposing all of this?

xx

A: We demand the resignation of Mayor Krivacek as he has left the community unprotected by shorting an already stretched police force because of his arrogance and stupidity. He has wasted tens of thousands of dollars on lawsuits that he single-handedly brought against this town and he continues to spend hundreds of dollars on absurd labor arbitrations.

xx
With regard to the Police Chief Adams, we will settle for no less than his removal from city hall in handcuffs charged with case fixing, obstruction of justice and official oppression.

xx

As to who we are, until our goals are accomplished, we'll just remain the "Mystery Antagonists" whose numbers continue to grow.
