Shortly after arriving in Louisiana, Lynch was brought to Foster's rented, ranch-style compound in Bogalusa. It sits behind a rusting fence, along a two-lane road, across from a cemetery and a sign that greets visitors: "BOGALUSA - Welcome to Our City." Jack Strain Jr., the sheriff of St. Tammany Parish, says the initiation ceremony began swiftly, and included the shaving of Lynch's head, the white hooded suits, the pledging of loyalty to the Klan, the burning of torches. It extended into Saturday. Then, on Sunday, Strain says, Foster led his group of disciples - including...
Perhaps unsurprisingly, Molski's attorney, Thomas Frankovich, says his client and the dozen or so serial ADA plaintiffs his firm has represented are activists and crusaders. Frankovich dubbed Molski (who does not have a criminal record) "the sheriff" because "he started going into town to clean it up." Frankovich says he has filed 223 ADA lawsuits on behalf of Molski.

(Molski was out of the country and couldn't be reached for comment.) Says Frankovich: "Letters...

We all need to become better crisis managers of our own personal lives and finances, and of the natural resources of our world. Linda Bracken, Wagoner, Okla...
...with difficulty. Each state has its own laws about how the three steps of foreclosure--default notice, court judgment and sheriff's sale--are made public, and those rules weren't necessarily written with data aggregation in mind. This summer, Dallas County, Texas, started posting records online, but before that, the only way to get information on foreclosures had been to march down to the courthouse and scan the corkboard where filings were posted. Even that was hit-or-miss--people often ripped down the paper postings instead of jotting down the addresses...
