McDoobie Conspired to Intimidate Law Enforcement Officials
The well known out-of-control mayor of Hammond, Tom "McDoobie" McDermott Jr, has now overstepped the line by attempting to intimidate the Lake County Sheriff and law enforcement officials to protect his long time bag man and thief, David Woerpel, known as "the postman." David Woerpel and his family are an embarrassment to the Democratic Party and decent people everywhere. They are more so for the City of Hammond.
I have known for quite some time that the Postman and his family, with his sidekick, the former radio looser (Steve), have long degenerated politics and political activity in Hammond to name calling and the politics of personal destruction. There sole goal, under the direction of the Mayor of Hammond, has been to destroy peoples' personal life who want to improve NWI. This has been the consistant approach of Tom McDermott. He learned this well from his father, the other McDermott looser.
Making phone calls to threaten people is not new for McDermott. The only thing new is that he picked on the wrong person. Sheriff Dominguez did not have any reason to be intimidated by "doobie" McDermott, especially since this was an Indiana State Police case. They were the one who discovered the Woerpel/McDermott stash. It was out of the hands of Dominguez. Further, listening to McDermott would have made him legally libel for censure and removal of his license to practice law. By the way, going public was the only way for Dominguez to protect himself against blackmail by doobie Tom.
If one takes some time to read some of my earlier blogs, you will see that McDoobie did the same to me. He called and left an intimidating/threatening message on my Purdue University telephone. The Purdue police listened to it and agreed that it was a threat. You can hear the message. I put it out there. I guess McDoobie thought that I was a "weasel" too. I wonder why this did not stop McDoobie and his wife from continuing to teach at Purdue University?
In the last election for mayor of Hammond, McDoobie won by only 400+ votes. He spent over $300,000 and his opponent spent about $3,000. After looking at the voting results precinct by precinct, I have never believed that McDoobie won fairly; because the vote fix was in by people like the postman. Even at that time, McDoobie should have been in jail; not running for office.
Why is he not being accused of illegal interference now? Why is he being allowed to have a law license? Given what he said on the message to Dominguez, why does anyone think that he is not on drugs? If he is not on drugs, then is there any doubt that he is incompetent, truly incompetent, as a lawyer? If he is incompetent and/or out of control as has been clearly indicated, why is he not being let out to pasture quietly? It is sad to see that Tom Philpot has chosen to have McDoobie's support. Philpot is much, much more competent than that. Factually, in the brain department, McDoobie does not even hold a candle to Philpot.
McDoobie is out of control for the message he left the Lake County Sheriff. On top of that, he showed his willingness to use his public office as mayor to intimidate law enforcement officials from carrying out their job. He used his public office to curry favor for his friends. This shows a level of illegality, immorality, lack of ethics, and incompetence that should automatically, i.e. through impeachment, have McDermott removed as mayor and chair of the Lake County Democratic Party.
On second thought, maybe those are the necessary qualifications.
