We should definitely be concerned about the message this may send to the children in Hamilton County's school system. Not only should we be concerned about this most recent possible violation, but isn't a lady by the name of Debbie Smith serving as the Principal for a local high school here?

Could someone with the media please check and see if this Debbie Smith is the same Debbie Smith who was convicted of shoplifting a few years ago in our area and subsequently released from her position as Principal or Vice Principal of Westview Elementary? If she is indeed the same person, then we have another example of a "bad role model" for the school children as we certainly don't want children in our community to think that individuals can get away with shoplifting and/or other crimes and then go on to positions of power and "respect" in the school system.
