These people know how to skirt the law in this county. It usually isn't too difficult to do because they don't get this kind of scrutiny.

'85 to '87 was when they had some really good local exposes. They wrote about secret societies in Central Florida and crooked engineering firms. And then, they went silent and became part of the problem.
