Will Rendon's Whistleblower Settlement Encourage Others in BISD to Come Forward?

Dominos

     My knowledge about the ongoings inside BISD would not fill the proverbial thimble, but I do understand the paralysis of fear.  With the figurative plumes of smoke rising from the district almost daily, why is no one inside reporting a fire?  The hundreds who have taught, administrated, supervised and coordinated within BISD in the last few years must know something that is askew.  Unless, they are simply afraid of losing their jobs.  That is, afterall, what happened to Art Rendon when he came forward with what he felt was fraud and mismanagement in the district's special education department.  Perhaps the settlement Rendon received of his whistleblower lawsuit which includes reinstatement to his job, will encourage others to come forward.

     Downtown club owner Ben Neece, wearing his attorney hat, hopes so.  "I feel so good about this, mainly because he got his job back.  Now maybe others will tell what they know."   Ben, Nena and I visited about BISD, Mexico, the Libertarian party, border security among other things.  Conversations dominated the Crescent Moon last night as the Doc Scully Blues Band was a no show.  Juan Montoya, the publisher ot the El Rrun Rrun blog sat at the bar, not even attempting to hide his disappointment at Doc's nonappearance.
