The article speaks for itself.
Wow, this is some really bad stuff.
Do we have to excerpt Yahoo news?
If not this should be fully posted.
This has already been posted.
why doesn't the article state her political affiliation?
I guess looks can be deceiving
This is only news if the councilwoman is a Republican.
Typical feel-good, Liberal response.
Two cokeheads trade guns for coke. Looks like boyfriend decided to rat her out in exchange for leniency.
She doesn't look like a druggie. But then we have a porn star running for Lieutenant Governor. I think I'll vote for her. A big body builder and a porn star slumming around in Sacramento could be curious fun. Politicians in CA must pass the cartoon character test before they get elected.
The article doesn't state her political affiliation because she is a democrat. The ultra-left wing extremist media protects and downplays the criminality of all dems. Were she a Republican it would be in the leadin. Absolutely true about 90% of the time.
That's nothing,
Ohio's next governor - Jerry Springer!
What the article did not state, was that a gun still registered to Schaffer and found in posession of the gang members, was tied to the murder of Burbank Police Officer Matthew Pavelka. (sp?) (I would assume balistic tests had been run. This additional information was made public by the Glendale News Press 07/15/05.
What a colossal screwup!
Yes. That might be fun. The Assembly and Senate will be throwing chairs and stuff and getting into fights daily. That will get better ratings than 'Desparate Housewives'.
City council seats in CA are non-partisan.
That will get better ratings than 'Desparate Housewives'.
Now you've gone too far!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope Jerry brings that guy Steve who is head bouncer on the show!
I thought it said one of the guns was tied to a 187 suspect.

My wife swears she read what I posted in the Friday News Press. If the information is not accurate, I appologize. I questioned her about it and she remained firm on the issue.
I tried to find yesterday's article on their site, and didn't find it.
A subsequent article did not touch on this issue.
And there is this.....
********************************************
Schaffer also told police that Murphy was aware that two of his associates were gang members and that he and Murphy had purchased cocaine and used it. Murphy, who has three children, also was accused of child endangerment.
Those who know her reacted with shock.
"Stacey Murphy has been a friend and a colleague. To the extent we can help her family and her, we'll stand next to her," Burbank Mayor Jef Vander Borght said.
*******************************************
Murphy has been on the Burbank City Council since 1997 and served as mayor in 1999-2000 and in 2003-04.
**************************************
The third person taken into custody was Robert Polloreno, 54, who lives with Schaffer. He was arrested on suspicion of grand theft of a firearm.
