Shelli Finally Tells Why the Court Filings Changed

January 23, 2018 By Shelli Poole 9 Comments

Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright…

Two or three or thirty people have asked me about a change I made in the Court Filings blog. I took out listings that have to do with family issues. Why did I do that, considering it’s public record?

Well, you’re right, it is public record. But one morning a friend of mine called me. She owns a local business and customers were coming in asking her about her personal life because they had seen a court filing on MySaline. She was crushed. She was in tears. She wasn’t a criminal. She hadn’t gotten into a financial lawsuit. She just had a very personal situation that became very public because MySaline printed it.

Now I’ll address something specific about this topic. Of all the messages I’ve fielded about this change, no one has mentioned the custody suits or the domestic abuse filings. The only thing I’ve heard from readers is, “Why did you stop posting the divorces?”

Again, yes it’s public record, so I can print it if I want to. I own this website, so I can also choose not to print it. Love me or hate me for it. Because it’s public record, you’re welcome to go find it yourself. No, I’m not going to tell you how. You know I love you and I still think you have a cute butt, however, I’m not going to budge on this.

There, after months of y’all asking, I’ve said it.

    To whom it may concern : No matter how you portray your decision, you are engaging in selective censorship. Yours is the same argument being used by large media outlets. You are deciding what your readers should know. Either report all public filings or do not report any at all, Respectively

    I appreciate the energy you expend on Saline County happenings; however, you desperately need an editor. Your posts consistently contain grammar, spelling, syntax, and punctuation errors. As a result, you portray the image of someone who is not well educated.

        By the way, you forgot to capitalize your name.
