Poll: Should Norm Wielsch Appear on Dr. Phil?

Judge ruled out LA trip to Dr. Phil McGraw's television show for police corruption defendant.

in Los Angeles and get some therapy.

One federal judge granted the permission for Norm Wielsch. A second one Monday said not so fast. Wielsch is the former czar of a Contra Costa drug enforcement squad, who is free on $100,000 bail.

The judges can't decide. Maybe it's up to the Patch readers to deliver a verdict. Hence this poll.

Snafu update: The original poll posted with this story was misleading in implying that Wielsch was to receive an appearance fee for appearing on the Dr. Phil Show; he was not, according to Wielsch's lawyer. The poll answers have been revised to reflect that. Patch apologizes to those who wasted their votes on the original poll!

How about you research the current ADA guidelines regarding surface materials for play areas?Read More Walnut Creek is simply acting to be in compliance. Not sure where you get the idea that wood chips are "much more dangerous".
