    So Mary, Mary got 3.5 years in prison and has decided that she needs treatment? For what? Addiction to power? Addiction to ripping off taxpayers so she and her husband can have two homes? So she and her husband can have freebies at 5 star resorts? And that doesn't even count the fact that for 18 years she has taken advantage of her position to advance her own agenda. And what about the hair dye. What is that all about? More image making efforts? Poor Mary. You got caught and you got off easy.

    She deserves five years and no less for her criminal activity and for betraying those that trusted her.

    Nuff said.

    The P B Post should be ashamed of itself for writing such a onesided editorial. Everyone in P B County new that Mrs McCarty's husband worked for a stock brokerage firm ( commissions paid were no greater than industry standards).Life long freinds that own one of the largest and without question the most qualified Convention Hotel bidder gave Mary discounted hotel rooms that over a 10 year period amounted to about $120 per year ( hardly a major crime by any standards). This comparded to pure bribery , extortion and financial malfeasance which sent her fellow commissioners to 5 years. Let's all thank Mr.Newell for his help in removing an arch criminal from society ( let's give him a couple of years off). You must be kidding ! Five years for McCarty is the most unjust punishment our courts can give - but it won't surprise me .
