Disgusting plight on Burrough Road‏

Editor:  I am thoroughly disgusted with what I had to read in the Sun-Journal this morning.  The conditions of this house were unbelievable and so many cats dead or dying.


The Animal Control agent put out a call for help, yet where in the hell were the Lisbon police??
Don't we pay for Animal control?  This is a huge disgrace for the Town of Lisbon and Police chief Brooks.  He didn't even respond to this Agent's call for help.

The Town took Reggie Thiboutot's house and burned it down for being a hazard and unpaid taxes.  This was MUCH WORSE.  I wonder if this house had unpaid taxes.  This incident is a very telling moment for Lisbon and the Police department.

This is what happens when the Town manager and Police chief are derelict in their duties.  Yet they receive raises and the chief remains in power although he retired many years ago.

WHAT A DISGRACE!

 About this Horrible Tragedy,

Note:  When this story first broke, it was plasted as being in Lisbon Falls.  Technically it is just over the line on a road shared with Bowdoin.  But the really significant fact is, Lisbon Police,  championed by none other then a hollywood wannabe, David T. Brooks, Police Chief of the only place he has worked for some 30 plus years.  And Lisbon's Animal Control Officer is shared with Bowdoin and some other surrounding towns.   Plus, Lisbon Police has a check on the elderly program, and  the highly paid under qualified  Town Engineer has been known to reside on this road or still does.

So How Come this all happened?  

Well you can't believe what the Chief says cause he has quite a reputation for not exactly telling things as they really are. No Chief Brooks embellishes the facts to suit his audience of specifically invited guests.   He'll say anything to put a feather in his cap, or a notch on the back of the cruiser's steering wheel.

The Tax payers of Lisbon should all be scratching there heads and asking questions and demanding answers.   Yet another fine example of the leadership In Lisbon.

In 'sad' case, a house of horrors in Bowdoin

BOWDOIN — Three live kittens were pulled out of a washing machine Wednesday night in a Burrough Road house filled with feces, carcasses, fleas and ticks.
An animal control worker was attempting to corral as many as four dozen cats and kittens running free inside the crumbling house at the end of the road. He was also contending with a slew of health hazards, including a tub filled with cat waste, buckets filled with human feces and animal carcasses scattered across the property.
