Well, she's smiling because she did an EXCELLENT job as a guest host on tonight's Idea's at Work and Beyond.
Tonight, The News-Times Online Editor Elizabeth Putnam interviewed Democratic Minority Leader Tom Saadi as well as Police Chief Alan Baker and Mayor Mark Boughton and was able to touch on a couple of topics that we've been talking about on this site.
We'll recap some of the rather interesting comments made by the Mayor (including a rather lengthy Boughton had with a person who obviously did his development homework), as well as some very good points Saadi brought up during his interview (which the mayor avoided).
Good job Elizabeth...you definitely have a future in broadcast journalism!

On September 26, 2007, ten plaintiffs filed suit in response to an arrest of aday laborers at a public park in Danbury, Connecticut. Plaintiffs amended their complaint on November 26, 2007.
The amended complaint states that plaintiffs sought to remedy the continued discriminatory and unauthorized enforcement of federal immigration laws against the Latino residents of the City of Danbury by Danbury's mayor and its police department.
Plaintiffs allege that the arrests violated their Fourth Amendment rights and the Connecticut Constitution because defendants conducted the arrests without valid warrants, in the absence of exigent circumstances, and without probable cause to believe that plaintiffs were engaged in unlawful activity. In addition, plaintiffs allege that defendants improperly stopped, detained, investigated, searched and arrested plaintiffs. Plaintiffs also allege that defendants violated their Fourteenth Amendment rights when they intentionally targeted plaintiffs, and arrested and detained them on the basis of their race, ethnicity and perceived national origin. Plaintiffs raise First Amendment, Due Process and tort claims.
Plaintiffs request declaratory relief, damages and attorneys fees.
