The Attorney General Should not be Rewarded with Your Vote: What Dave Kane Will Do with Some of the Station Nightclub Fire Settlement Money
Dave Kane issued the following press release today.
Since yesterday's announcement about the release of the Station Nightclub Fire settlement money, I have been asked several times what our family plans to do with the money. First, at the risk of sounding like a commercial, "We're going to Disney world", Nicky's favorite place to go with his family.However, the release of these funds does not mean that our fight for justice is over. My wife, Joanne and I are dedicating some of Nicky's settlement money to begin a Media campaign to defeat Patrick Lynch's attempt to be elected Governor of the State of Rhode Island.
As Attorney General, Patrick Lynch proved to be an incredible combination of incompetence and corruption. After taking steps and making rulings that resulted in the denial of justice for all the victims and their families, Attorney Lynch wants to be rewarded with your vote for Governor.
The election of Patrick Lynch as Governor would add severe insult to devastating injury to everyone touched by the Station Nightclub Fire. This man needs to be held up as an example of what happens when elected officials fail to execute the duties of their office honorably. As I have said many times, âPatrick Lynch may have been re-elected Attorney General over my sonâs dead body. But, he will be elected Governor over mine.â
