To the editor:

Enough is enough. I can’t believe your headline “Jay Wallace breaks his silence.”

We’ve heard a lot from former deputy Wallace. How does he rate so much front page space in the Record? I don’t remember a bigger picture of an individual on the front page. Panels and arbitrators ad nauseum have found his firing justified. When will you (and he) give us a break — no more articles about him.

Interesting that he finds the justice system broke. Bet you a paycheck that if he had been rehired, he would not be saying that. Face it, you lost, Mr. Wallace.

How many people out there who lost in court, arbitration, etc. feel justice was not done? How many people who won think justice was done? If Mr. Wallace had been in most other countries, he wouldn’t have had one chance to prove his innocence, let alone several.
