twitterFlashpoint for Nov. 13, 2005
Sunday, Nov. 13, 2005 | 8:16 a.m.
What did they know and when did they know it? That's what current members of the Las Vegas City Council want to ask former city leaders at a Wednesday meeting that could be part theater of the absurd, part show trial and part Kabuki. The Waltersgate mess may be what some think the Libby indictment is -- a cover-up for a crime that didn't occur when developer Billy Walters got a deal Nov. 2 from a council that covered up a police report and damaging internal memos. The 2005 council that knew a lot and said very little when it voted now is trying to turn the spotlight away from themselves and onto a past administration. They want to say the past is irrelevant, although it may well be prologue. Very clever. I wonder if they will get away with it.
