Let's not forget Tom Wall was indicted in October on 7 counts of Misdemeanor battery against 2 women. And according to the Indiana State police report, he is accused of "inappropriately touching" these two young ladies who worked for him. Keep in mind before you vote, there is a high probability he could be convicted of these crimes, then what? So while Tom wants to present this great looking family picture as the status quo and many of you want to post on Facebook about how he is a great guy and family man, reality is he is awating trial!
I read your response to my last comment, but it’s already on the 2nd page. I laughed because I’ve never heard anybody with an ulterior agenda announce that they have an agenda. And you might be right about me having an agenda – calling you out on your BS coverage of Huntington County politics. You don’t care about what happens in Huntington County, you haven’t since you realized that you would never get elected here.
Is Tom the only politician in Huntington with troubles? The only one who should be facing some legal problems? Or is he the one that gives you the most hits and listeners? Seems like your sources are only gunning for one guy, because I’m sure Huntington has more than one “bad” guy.

Cj,
BS coverage? A sitting Huntington County Commissioner is under indictment heading into the election. Sounds like it should be covered to me. As for the BS part, point to where I've been wrong.

It is sickening to find out how many people have not heard of this in Huntington. Most of this can be attributed to the Herald Press, quite possibly the most horrid piece of "journalism" on the planet. They have managed to drive away a large portion of readers by delivering a paper with old, biased and ill written news. They did not report on this story until 9/30/12, and very little has been reported since. The tab, keeping to their roots, did not report on this. However, an interview with Wall was published in which wall denied the allegations. Another intersting tidbit, is the number of people standing by Wall that believe he is the most honest and trusting man on the planet. I think he has shown his true colors over the years and those who stand by him are blind. This election will be very interesting since politicians in this county think they are invincible. Thank you Gary for your great reporting on thismatter and others. Someone has to keep tabs on Huntington, and the Herald Press has proven time and again that they are incapable of unbiased and educated reporting.

That picture in the TAB made my stomach sick. Would Tom Wall really use his family and his "roots" in such a cynical fashion? Really, is getting elected to the position of county commissioner more important than protecting one's entire family from such embarrassment as facing several counts of battery? To parade his family in the face of the extremely serious allegations in front of him says it all.

Equally & Fed Up,
I agree very well stated, this add just highlights his character flaws, from the facts he is guilty as sin and last spring a real man (one with a pair) would have admitted his guilt and let the chips fall where they may. Instead he put out lies and false hoods,blamed others, drug his community, political party and most importantly his entire family threw the mud.

In the Nov.1 Tab, I'm just amazed at the farmers who are backing Wall, does it make no difference to these people that Wall has sexual charges against him. I can't believe some of these good Christian farmers would allow their name to be used by this bum!

Tom is a good honest man. This is all dirty politics. Us "people" in the ah industry are not blind. We know Tom is not that kind of person.
