READER'S TIP RESULTS IN AN INTERESTING IMAGE AND MORE QUESTIONS ABOUT FAVORTISM AT THE ABC

SCREEN CAPTURE FROM TV NEWS VIDEO SHOWS CARLTON SAFFA SITTING NEXT TO HIS WIFE, KRISTEN AT THE ABC DRAWING FOR SALINE COUNTY PERMITS IN

Thanks to a reader we were able to find an image of Carlton Saffa, another questionable individual that Governor Asa Hutchinson has placed on the public payroll, at the ABC permit drawing on July 20, 2015.

We posted a two part series back in August about Saffa's connection to tainted ABC Enforcement Director Boyce Hamlet and how Saffa's mother-in-law, Lisa Wright made a fraudulent application to the ABC to obtain a permit that she would not have been able to obtain had she truthfully reported that she lived in Little Rock (residence) not in Hot Springs (vacation home).

POST FROM Bad Government in Arkansas Blog

We have attempted to verify that Saffa took leave to attend the liquor lottery but have not received a response. We suspect that he did not and simply conducted personal business on state time.

The ABC routinely investigates claims that an individual provided false information on an application. Did they investigate Lisa and Edward Wright after our stories posted in August. Hell no.

Why? Because of the connection they have to tainted ABC Enforcement Director Boyce Hamlet.

Not to mention, Hamlet has a soft spot for liars. After all he is a habitual liar himself.

Little Rock Mayor's wedding announcement leads to a discovery of another legal blunder of Antwan Phillips

The feckless Little Rock mayor made this post of Facebook yesterday. So this morning we went to the County Clerk's website and grabbed a copy of his marriage license application. We immediately noticed that both Scott and his bride to be listed the same residence address - 8101 Kanis Oaks Drive. Scott's residence on his voter records is on Edwina Drive in Southwest Little Rock. Scott's bride-to-be is registered to vote in Florida. More about her later on in the story. So we Googled that address. According to records on file with Pulaski County, the property is owned by DRS Family Trust. You might wonder who is DRS Family Trust. Well dear readers, it's the mayor. The trust uses the middle initials of the mayor ("D" for Derrick) and his future spouse ("R" for Renee). the "S" is for Scott. How did we come to that conclusion?
