DAY #158
SEPTEMBER 14, 2023
An article from current September 2023 Downeast magazine addressing the issues of Waterville Maine: "I’m really torn, because I’m grateful every day for the investments that Colby’s made. And it’s not Colby’s job to fix Waterville. But I’m also very aware of the big problems that are still there,” she says. “From what I see, what Waterville needs is a way to feed the kids in town. A way to deal with the drug prevalence and the poverty and violence. I worry that it’s a matter of time before we might have a violent event in the dorm on Main Street.” Last spring, a fight between three Waterville men at a party in a dorm on Colby’s Mayflower Hill campus led to gunfire, a lockdown, and an arrest. If a long-range goal of downtown redevelopment is to help address Waterville’s broader social problems, O’Halloran says, “I really worry about whether this is going to work.”
Hmmmm, it seems as if many are speaking up about the issues in Waterville; the danger, the crime, the violence...yet officials keep repeating their ridiculous gas-lighting mantra: "There is no evidence of the drugging & raping of women in Waterville Maine" !??!? The article points out "It is only a matter of time before we have a violent event in the DORMS on Main Street"!?!
Worried about that violence in the dorms on Main Street?!? What about the violence right ON Main Street!?! Let's take some inventory:
Women are being taken right off the street, dragged into vehicles, beaten, raped & released?!? Women are being drugged & raped in basements of downtown Waterville restaurants?!? You can fucking order a woman 24/7 from Relaxalon; a business that was identified by law enforcement as the location for sex trafficking that was actually the cause for Maine to adopt a sex trafficking legal defense for victims of sexual violence?!?
It is only a matter a time before we have a violent event?!? Ummmm, pretty sure we are already way past that folks...'The Waterville Secret that Everyone Knows'
