					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;http://amandacoyne.com/politics/begich-releases-most-inflammatory-attack-on-sullivan-yet/#comment-47762&quot;&gt;Jon k&lt;/a&gt;.

I agree with Dani and Jon.  Begich has no sense of decency to use a family&#039;s unimaginable grief for his political gain.  But, on top of that, he is making such loose connections because he isn&#039;t telling the whole truth, that his ads are flagrantly dishonest.  And, if that weren&#039;t egregious enough, he had a dirty rapist cop on his payroll when he was mayor!  Even if Begich&#039;s accusations were true - and they aren&#039;t --- what is exponentially worse than accidentally letting a rapist go free too early is having and keeping a rapist on your payroll with benefits on the taxpayers&#039; dime.  Where is the public outrage there?  Oh, that&#039;s right, liberals/democrats only feign righteous indignation when it futhers their agenda.  

Begich is not only guileless, but, he is also not that smart.  Dukasis lost the election for the Willie Horton ad and his political career ended.  The same thing will happen to Begich.  This is good for Sullivan.  Begich&#039;s true colors have emerged and the more desperate he becomes, the more he will rear his ugly head.]]></description>

Absolutely!  Finally, someone brought up the rapist cop on Begich&#039;s watch.  Begich has a closer and more direct link to a rapist, in the police dept no less, who sexually assaulted many women, than  Sullivan has to the Active case errors, which, as  Amanda clearly reported, happened BEFORE Sullivan&#039;s time.  Apples and oranges to Begich&#039;s dirty hands.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;http://amandacoyne.com/politics/begich-releases-most-inflammatory-attack-on-sullivan-yet/#comment-47757&quot;&gt;Mae&lt;/a&gt;.

What&#039;s most curious, Mae, is when you start to put this stuff in a timeline, certain events become much more clarified.  

The timing of L48 Dan&#039;s move from DNR to Law occurred around the same time former head of the State Troopers, Audie Holloway, resigned, &quot; heading for a warmer clime in the Lower 48, said his successor, Col. Keith Mallard.&quot;

Well, that wasn&#039;t quite true, he took a position in Iraq training Iraqi police forces, but that&#039;s besides the point.

More importantly, what was happening in the Alaska National Guard around this time, you ask  ?

&quot;.......Chaplains Koch and McGovern said the administration of Alaska Gov. Sean Parnell, who oversees the Alaska National Guard, was told of sexual assault problems as far back as fall 2010.....&quot;

http://www.mcclatchydc.com/2013/10/27/206531_alaska-national-guard-unit-being.html?rh=1#storylink=cpy
 
&quot;.......Soon after that Katkus and DeHaas had their council of colonels, where they told a room full of people that the information I gave the FBI was given to the State Troopers and Katkus’ friend at the Troopers (Holloway) gave it to Katkus. They further spoke that the field grade officer that gave the information to the FBI was not a team player and that he didn’t belong in the organization. And they expected loyalty from everyone else in the room......&quot;

&quot;.......AST and APD personnel told Katkus that a drug taskforce was about to arrest some R&#038;R personnel and Katkus let the drug dealers know to get rid of the evidence.......&quot;

&quot;.......Coordinated with his friends at APD and AST that any sexual assault cases involving National Guard personnel would be turned over to him for investigation..........&quot;

http://cryptome.org/2012/12/ng-alaska-blaylock.pdf

This is what they don&#039;t want reported and are desperately trying to cover up.

If L48 Dan is the White Knight here, then why doesn&#039;t he come out and say so ?

The corruption goes to the highest levels of law enforcement in this state, and it would be a serious stain on their reputation if the truth about these matters ever came out.  

There is another skeleton lurking out there regarding a man who brutally beat and raped his girlfriend, who did his time in prison and was &quot;reformed&quot;, and then did an apparent &quot;walk through&quot; with the court system in order to get an early release from his probation.  What&#039;s even more interesting is the timing of his early release and the connection through his spouse to a young pregnant Alaska Army National Guard soldier who was found dead in her home, with no cause of death determined.  The court system  walk-through happened in December 2010 and the soldiers death in January of 2011.

It&#039;s just my gut feeling here that L48 Dan just might be the White Knight, Holloway too.  Did he find the DoL such a mess that he needed to get some distance from it, you know, for his future political ambitions ?  What was Holloway&#039;s role in the reporting of sexual assaults within the Guard ?  What did he know, when did he know it, and what did he do to curtail it ?  Army and Marine culture are worlds apart, was Katkus trying to keep a lid on his festering cesspool of corruption, and was L48 Dan trying to get something done ?  Those are the questions that I&#039;d be asking, hard questions like that.

What did Rob Heun know, and when did he know it ?  Why were these &quot;investigations&quot; steered to APD and not the State Troopers ?

Hello, Department of Justice ?  Dat you ?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Why would the Begich campaign all of a sudden release this ad? They (and Put AK First) have run ad after ad after ad accusing Sullivan of not being from AK. Now they&#039;re throwing the napalm, and they&#039;re doing it for a reason. 

This reeks of desperation. 

And why won&#039;t Mark answer the phone when reporters call? The Begich campaign is completely relying on their spokesman and the AK Democratic Party to defend this. I can&#039;t imagine what Begich himself would say when asked about this. He has to know this was a bad idea, but he had no choice. That&#039;s a very tough place to be.]]></description>
