The Bruce Hooley Show

Bruce reviews candidates representing the Democrat Party, and challenges the qualifications of many of the highlighted candidates.  Challenges listeners to review their record, and really dig into whether or not a candidate has what's best for you in mind. Also, Shannon Hardin claims to be a "change agent."  But, does his political record really lend to the proof of his focus on being an element of change? Bruce provides an update on the two civil lawsuits have been filed in connection with a deadly wrong-way crash on state Route 315 in May.
The lawsuits were filed by the estate of Kaitlyn Spahr, who was killed in the crash, and by Soogie Choi, who was seriously hurt. Both suits name two defendants. One is Xiaoke Fan, who is accused of stealing a car and driving the wrong way on Route 315 before crashing head-on into the vehicle Spahr and Choi were in. The other defendant is the woman whose car Fan allegedly stole! Lastly, Franklin County ends contract with poverty nonprofit RISE Together Innovation Institute.  Let's just say Bruce was not surprised...

Bruce gives an update on several violent stories from the past few weeks... like the shooting at a funeral home in Columbus, and the Delaware County murder of Dr. Tamela Dutcher.  Bruce goes through some of the new details in each of those cases.  Diego Montoya Gonzales is facing multiple felony charges after a Franklin County Grand Jury indicted him in connection with an alleged attempt to rape a child in Columbus. Gonzales is the same man arrested last month in connection with the rape of an 11-year-old in Grove City.

After months of unsubtle hints, Columbus City Council President Shannon Hardin has launched his mayoral campaign to challenge fellow Democrat and incumbent Mayor Andrew Ginther in 2027.  Hardin labels himself an agent of change, and Bruce reviews his credentials.  Don't get it twisted, Mayor Ginther is still a dope, so the debate between Ginther and Hardin is like the age old debate of who is your favorite of "The Three Stooges."
