      <![CDATA[The premise of this article is misleading, since it's based on a search warrant that was at best overzealous. During these interviews, there are an entire battery of questions asked, and at the end, the interviewer usually says, "Are you withholding any information now that could disqualify you from employment as a police officer?"

      <![CDATA[When an editor tries to defend a writer then all I can assume is that this was this was never reviewed for print. Also to say no one is considering the welfare of the kids is very much one sided.

He stated this, again by his own admission, in the course of applying for a job as a police officer, whose role in the community is to protect the citizenry, including children, from criminals and predators.

      <![CDATA[I am trying to find a story here and all I can gather is that the writer is just using a person to get into the Durham Police Department. Also to publish the address of the accused (which according to the story appears to be cleared by authorities) is nothing more than constructive slander by the Independent Weekly.

      <![CDATA[Rather than being a bad decision, it seems to me the correct decision was to keep the warrant sealed, and I wonder now why it was unsealed, since there was no evidence of any wrongdoing found. And apparently, the possible violation was self-reported voluntarily -- not something a guilty person would do.
