Letter: Officials blatant in disregard for integrity

A judge favoring juvenile delinquents. One judge's favorable decision landed her husband a cushy job with the decision winner. Another judge violates the Nevada Code of Judicial Conduct and whines that "all judges do it."

The monorail is approved for "a good ole boy," a project that will eventually end up as a burden on the taxpayers.

So it isn't surprising that an ex-con who did a few favors for an official is hired at a great salary by the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority.

When are the good citizens of this state going to do something about the blatant ignoring of integrity and decency of those in authority in our midst these days? Even the Mafia kept a low profile and tried to obey the laws.
