I believe she left that job to work as a mitigation specialist, which is someone who works with offenders to help get them as much rehabilitation as our punitive criminal justice system will afford. In other words, I don't know enough to say whether she's an expert in Re-Entry, but she certainly has work with an offender population, and at the end of the day, the only thing that matters is the result. Sorry, but I don't think re-entry is about policy as much as it is about having connections with employers who will give inmates a chance.<br /><br />If somebody connected with the Republican Party wants to help people from going back to prison, I'm ready to say thank you for a welcome change. The Republican Party has historically stood for not intervening in a troubled kids life until they do something criminal, then ensuring they do as much time as possible (and they'll pay an unlimited amount to keep building prisons), and then doing nothing to ensure they don't go back. <br /><br />If Ms. Trexler has spied for The Chairman, that's a bit gutter. But I can't shake the thought that does somebody without nothing would laugh at someone following him/her. I mean, if you spend your time at home, at work, at church, and at Little League, wouldn't that get boring for the person doing surveillance? Makes me wonder what kind of dirt the Republicans are getting into that they're nervous. <br /><br />In other words, I'm wondering if some of the anonymouses responding on this are people who got edged for this same government money. <br /><br />Also, were Ms. Trexler incompetent as you say, then Bob Altice committed the greatest transgression of anybody mentioned in any of these posts. And I bet all the anonymouses voted for him, didn't you?Chris Wordenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00558836541249077077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126825064641092276.post-29418805876812713312009-05-08T08:09:00.000-04:002009-05-08T08:09:00.000-04:00Flip, you're not getting the big picture. This is ...Flip, you're not getting the big picture. This is not about qualification this about romantic quid pro quo. Christina also has a background in private investigations which comes in handy if you are an aspiring GOP Chairman (ask Mike Murphy how it feels) or need your PC and elected officials to toe-the line(Barb Malone,<br />Ed Coleman, Kent Smith.) Just put a tail on your little wayward child and collect the data. And of course you try to target bloggers who give you trouble. That's why she feels so comfortable touting her business Manifestix LLC to anyone who spends five minutes with her. Anyone who touches this woman becomes a pawn of Tom John. She's on the Community Corrections board because of him not her resume.

So Tom John's mistress, turned girlfriend, turned fiance is now preparing to get a sweetheart deal for no other reason than her "relationship" with the party boss. My question to Tom is why can't she find something in the private section or better yet why can't she get a job with your drinking buddy Carl Brizzi or perhaps your law firm Ice Miller? Why must she get taxpayer dollars for a service in which she isn't qualified to provide and thus must force people to work with her? And more importantly Tom how far are you willing to go to convince elected and appointed individuals to sign on her dotted line? Will you pull a knife-in-the-back scheme like you did with Judge Miller or will it be more sleezy like what you did with Ballard during the election? Personally I wish you nothing but success because you are the best gift the marion County Democratic Party has had in quite a while.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126825064641092276.post-66013115510399645572009-05-07T08:06:00.000-04:002009-05-07T08:06:00.000-04:00Re-entry related.

Sadly she's tossing Tom John's name around like rose pedals.

My question is what is Christina Trexler's qualifications besides her engagement to a County Chairman? And what is the penalty if someone refuses her influence peddling? The GOP is full of hypocrites and this is another example.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
