Scissorhands Severson' Preliminary Hearing Scheduled

Tom "Scissorhands" Severson, political consultant to the Joe Long Dems, is being prosecuted by the Pennsylvania Attorney General for deceptive campaign practices that extend from anonymous mailers to invoices designed to disguise his involvement on behalf of different candidates.

Severson's preliminary hearing has been scheduled for July 13. But instead of being around here, it's in Harrisburg before Dauphin County Magistrate Marsha Stewart. A flurry of subpoenas has spread among Commonwealth witnesses. The burden of proof at a preliminary hearing is very low, but it's a good opportunity to see and hear some of the witnesses.

Sounds like a road trip for me.

I've heard through the grapevine that the LongDems are going to endorse Kelleher in Nov.

Since you are gainfully unemployed and live off the County, I take it you will be covering the hearing.
