Bob Mattson at the South Shore Progressive writes that the Lake County Council has betrayed voters’ trust by failing to remove convicted councilman Will Smith, Jr.

Since Mr. Smith refuses to do the right thing and resign, the County Council needs to censure him. Since they have refused to do so, they have also betrayed the public trust. In my mind, they are no better than Mr. Smith and do not deserve to sit on the County Council. And they wonder why Lake County has such a bad reputation in state government.
