Retaliation still in play against Edward

Posted September 08, 2008 11:00 pm

Edward Hospital representatives and Plainfield officials are too kind in their characterizations of the Illinois Health Facilities Planning Board treatment of the need for medical care in Plainfield.

This board was prepared to grant Plainfield a much-needed hospital if Edward paid a bribe to a board member.

This disgraced board has refused to remove the stench of corruption from its process. This board cannot help itself from retaliating against Edward for exposing this board's corruption.

Who is investigating those who benefited from the former board member's corruption? Who was hurt by that corruption being exposed?

The unfortunate result is Plainfield area residents suffer for this board's abuse of its discretion in its determination to retaliate against Edward.
