When will the Drew Peterson "hype" end?

The media loves to sensationalize Drew's case.  The neighbors and family mourn for the lost one's.  Will this circus ever end?  Now there is a movie coming out!

I think it is a disgrace when the media and the producers make a man sensationalized for being accused of murder. 

Let's stop a minute and think about this.  If someone was capable of killing someone, stuffing their body into a barrel, disposing the body, and lying about it for years while family members and children grieve for the loss, who are we to give them any attention?  Turn your nose the other way and walk away.

Some might say, "well the BR wrote a story recently about Drew".  We would point out that it was because a potential murderer, who held rank in our community, still gets our tax money.  However, we are not sensationalizing him for who he is.  We oppose giving him our tax money so he can pay for his attorney to try to get him released from the charges against him.  We know it is not fair to assume he is guilty without his trial, but we have spoken with neighbors and others involved and find his behavior before the murders wrong.  He has a history of the Bolingbrook PD covering his butt when Stacy called to complain about domestic abuse.  His actions have not been spoken about by the Mayor or the Police, and they continue to give him our tax dollars, because they claim he is eligible until he is found guilty. 

But it is our opinion, that Bolingbrook residents should turn their backs to the media and producers that sensationalize his story.  Contribute to your community by showing support for the many, many residents affected by this disaster.  The neighbors, family, friends, and tax payers who got screwed by Drew.
