...Warren still hasn't been convicted of anything, and Emprise still controls all of Arizona's dog tracks. It will be interesting to see if Adamson can pull down any walls with his testimony, as the autumn rolls on into winter. It's about time to reverse a few things in Arizona: time to bell the cat that killed Don Bolles, because he was curious...
