Welcome to the Coatesville Dems Blog

Public Corruption in Chester County, PA

I believe an unlikely mix of alleged drug trafficking related politicos and alleged white nationalist related politicos united to elect the infamous “Bloc of Four” in the abysmal voter turnout election of 2005. During their four year term the drug business was good again and white nationalists used Coatesville as an example on white supremacist websites like “Stormfront”. Strong community organization and support from law enforcement, in particular Chester County District Attorney Joseph W. Carroll has begun to turn our community around. The Chester County drug trafficking that I believe centers on Coatesville continues and I believe we still have public officials in place that profit from the drug sales. But the people here are amazing and continue to work against the odds to make Coatesville a good place to live.

Coatesville-Radio Times-• Radio Times with Marty Moss-Coane-talks with Philadelphia Inquirer writer KATHLEEN BRADY SHEA

Kathleen Brady Shea gets it right. It brought tears to my eyes.

Hour Two
At least twenty-six fires from Arson have been reported in Coatesville,
PA since last year. A state of emergency has been declared and many
people are homeless in the already economically challenged town of less
than 12,000 people. Two alleged arsonists were arrested last week. We
speak to Philadelphia Inquirer writer KATHLEEN BRADY SHEA for an update
on the town. Then, local singer and composer, VENISSA SANTI, comes into
the studio to explain how she integrates her Cuban background into
original songs and creative arrangements of jazz and Cuban standards. In
2008, she received the prestigious Pew Fellowship in folk and
traditional arts. We'll listen to a few songs from her upcoming release,
"Bienvenida," a bilingual album of Afro Cuban, jazz and pop soul songs.
It will be released April 21st on Sunnyside Records. Listen to the mp3
