What Happens Here In Mesa Doesn't Stay In Mesa

It's a good thing that more eyes are watching what happens here in Mesa. Far too often a closely-controlled local mainstream media-monopoly machine manipulates what they manufacture to produce stories in slanted narratives passing through to the public as 'news' without getting down to the real nitty-gritty.
That's usually the way some people like it - it's also the way certain people want it: keep it under-the-radar, make it a non-issue, delay any way you can releasing any more details to the public to avoid scrutiny, disclose as little as possible and attempt to keep it all 'private',  out-of-the-eyes and off-the-minds of the those who have a right-to-know. 
There are times when certain hyper-local issues break through to a wider audience.
Officer-involved excessive use-of-force by the Mesa Police Department is the hot topic at the center of national and international interest.
It's taken on a momentum of its own on ABC, CNN, The NY Post, Kansas City Star, Japan Times, NBC, Fox, Yahoo News, Orlando Sentinel, Democracy Now, Vox, Huff Post, and Crime Report . . .  There's plenty to see
