At the time she was the one who needed financial support.  The divorce filing appeared in the Indianapolis Star while she was in Atlanta attending the Democratic National Convention.  Carson was taken into custody by police, but was released for a $1500.00 theft of a delegate’s travel money from her purse.  If there is a record, I am sure the City of Atlanta has it since they reimbursed the Indiana delegate the money to avoid a national scandal. One of Rev. Jesse Jackson’s State Coordinators caught stealing money from a white female’s purse from Indiana. You did not see this headline because it was covered up.&lt;BR/&gt; INDIANA STATE SENATOR JULIA M. CARSON CHARGED WITH THEFT OF DELEGATE’S MONEY&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;What do you think of a wife who immediately runs to the bank, removes her husbands name off of all financial documents assuming he will not recover from being hospitalized for an illness, but he does recover? &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;When he discovered what she had done, it took him 4 months to find an attorney to handle the divorce.  The divorce attorneys in this city did not want to be involved handling the ugly divorce of Senator Julia Carson.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;The judge ordered Ms. Carson to bring all financial records and receipts to court and to account for all money spent. Do you know that she walked into court with 2 shopping bags of papers stuffed in the bags? The papers were not in any kind of order.  Just sloppy.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Ask her about her domestic incidents, the arguments, and fights she had with him when she discovered he was leaving her for a younger woman. Her neighbors on Park Avenue witnesses several fights in the street and told people about it.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I know that you will find her dysfunctional marriage to this man more interesting than her opponents. The divorce record is on file.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/115884017297383628/comments/default/115891606853709568'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/115884017297383628/comments/default/115891606853709568'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2006/09/star-tries-and-convicts-dickerson.html?showComment=1158916020000#c115891606853709568' title=''/><author><name>Anonymous</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2006/09/star-tries-and-convicts-dickerson.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-115884017297383628' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/posts/default/115884017297383628' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.itemClass" value="pid-1114923450"/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.displayTime" value="4:07 AM GMT-5"/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-115889415198089449</id><published>2006-09-21T22:02:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-09-21T22:02:00.000-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Career Experiences    * General Motors Corporation...</title><content type='html'>Career Experiences&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;    * General Motors Corporation – accepted a position as an engineer and test pilot with GM immediately following discharge from the Marine Corps.

She&#39;s carried water for those less fortunate for three decades.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;But this is not isolated.  Far from it.  And in those moments when you&#39;re brutally honest with yourself, you know it.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;She has shown up at events looking like she just rolled out of bed.  Disheveled. And, when she spoke, oddly incoherent.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;The scene Gary described is one I&#39;ve seen no less than 15 times in the last few years.  Very up-close.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I&#39;d still give her the benefit, through it all.  Except...&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;She delivered that file to the paper.  It was wrong.  If she&#39;d quickly stepped up and said &quot;I&#39;m sorry for the confusion this has caused, let&#39;s get back to issues&quot;--then I&#39;m right with her.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;But she didn&#39;t.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;She needs to rest.  For a long time.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Dont&#39; get me wrong--Mr. Dickerson&#39;s actions require a lot of scrutiny, and he has not earned my vote.  This has been a very sad week.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I&#39;m seriously considering writing in Andy Jacobs.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/115884017297383628/comments/default/115884318485683105'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/115884017297383628/comments/default/115884318485683105'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2006/09/star-tries-and-convicts-dickerson.html?showComment=1158843180000#c115884318485683105' title=''/><author><name>Anonymous</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2006/09/star-tries-and-convicts-dickerson.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-115884017297383628' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/posts/default/115884017297383628' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.itemClass" value="pid-1114923450"/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.displayTime" value="7:53 AM GMT-5"/></entry></feed>
