We like to connect the easy dots first. Today's News-Herald discusses the City of Mentor's response to a lawsuit filed by Rober F. Dicelo for $5 million on behalf of the widow of a slain man.
No doubt that this situation is tough for the family that suffered a loss, the officer involved, and the City.
However, it should be noted that law firm employing State Rep. Mark Schneider, The Dicello Firm, is suing a City's in Schneider's District.
So, let's get this straight: The Dicello firm gets a million dollar settlement out of Mentor, and Mentor suffers financially. The Dicello Law Firm makes a hefty commission, the Dicellos get paid, Mark Schneider gets paid, and contributions get made from the Dicello firm to Mark Schneider's candidate committee.
Sounds like a plan.
