Why would someone not want what's at the bottom of Los Angeles's MacArthur Park lake revealed?

It's kind of suspicious how many technicalities have been cited as reasons for not wanting to drag the gang-activity-plagued lake.

If you were a city councilwoman, and your district included a derelict lake run by gangs, roughly in front of the Mexican consulate, and it was believed to contain a lot of dead bodies, wouldn't you want the potential mass grave cleared?

Well, the one who represents Los Angeles's MacArthur Park lake reportedly doesn't.

She's denied it, of course.

But the California Post reports that a private bid to use sonor to scan the bottom of the lake to locate all the bodies, weapons, and trash, was halted by one Los Angeles City Councilwoman Eunisses Hernandez, who doesn't want that done, citing a park ranger.

According to the California Post:

A high-tech search for dead bodies, guns and other criminal evidence dumped in MacArthur Park Lake was halted at the last minute on Monday morning, The California Post has learned.

Park rangers told the search’s organizers that they shut down the planned operation on Monday morning at the last minute after the intervention from LA City Councilwoman Eunisses Hernandez.

Her office did not immediately return requests for comment regarding the reasons for the last-minute shutdown.

The shutdown happened moments after The Post arrived on the scene and despite the search mission being planned for months.

On a happier note, it’s had a resident peregrine falcon (but those can fly...):

This is just speculation of course but judging by her photo (I assume that is she) it may be she does not want the bodies to reveal a secret cult of cannibal killers of which she is queen.

I would just change the verbiage of the scope of work to live bodies so they can get this done ASAP.

One of those that make it easy to confuse the original with the Wierd Al version, which was something about dinosaurs (Jurassic Park)

“’Mr Krinkle tell me why’ two posts?”

Ummm, errr, ahhh,...fumble fingers? Brain fart? Trying to fit in with the crowd? There is no reason for it, it’s just policy? Some other little kid messed with my computer while I was in the bathroom? Yeah, that’s the ticket, some other little kid!

Local LA radio talk show host John Kobylt has been all over this story asking “what is she hiding and why?”

It was being privately funded, wouldn’t have costed the city anything.

So, can an independent explorer scuba in there with a light and camera, at night perhaps.

Like the submersibles viewing the Titanic.

And report?

She has eaten much more than a cake. She looks like she cleaned out an entire bakery, or maybe several.
