Is Laura Ahearn and PFML operating outside the law? Registrants are reporting PFML goons still conducting compliance checks without a contract

As far as I know, the controversial contract between Parents For Megan's Law and Suffolk County expired at the end of last year, unless they renewed it in a backroom deal. I have seen no evidence anywhere online, be it on the PFML website, the Suffolk Co. Legislature site, or anywhere else, like social media. 

However, I've heard from a couple of people that they received visits from folks who might be from PFML, and one supposedly got a message on his cell phone notifying him that his caller info was being monitored. Could it be that PFML is indeed conducting these compliance checks? There isn't any definitive proof yet (merely the claims of a couple of readers), but if you are a resident of Suffolk County and you've had a visit from PFML this year, contact Derek Logue at 513-238-2873 or email iamthefallen1@yahoo.com. 

We'd like to have definitive proof, and we hope that a major media outlet picks up on this. 

Irony: Ahearn skips screening for her potential DA run

Irony, in its broadest sense, is a rhetorical device, literary technique, or event in which what appears, on the surface, to be the case, differs radically from what is actually the case.

I think it is ironic that Laura Ahearn cites ethics concerns given her penchant for cronyism with some of Suffolk County's worst criminals, like Dean Skelos and James Burke.

Possible Suffolk district attorney hopeful Laura Ahearn declined to appear before the Suffolk Conservative committee Sunday, saying the event posed a “potential ethical conflict,” even though the minor party tried to allay her qualms.

On the eve of candidate screening, Ahearn issued a statement criticizing the minor party for allowing party secretary Michael Torres to arrange the screening appointments for DA contenders while facing criminal charges himself.

Frank Tinari, Suffolk Conservative chair, said he learned of Ahearn’s concerns when a Newsday reporter sought a reaction to her statement on the eve of the screening. Encouraging her participation, Tinari said Torres had “graciously agreed” not to take part in the meeting. “We’d be happy to have her come,” he said. “We want to give everyone a chance to make their case.”

Tinari conveyed his offer to Suffolk Democratic chairman Richard Schaffer, who relayed it to Ahearn. She still declined to attend, saying the offer did “not inspire confidence that anything has changed under the current leadership.”
