There is proof that it is a lie by looking at the Board of Health reports which list Sumter county as one of the last in terms of STD's.

As a side joke someone said to just say that the Developer made it up to get people to move there hahahahaha.

It's her right to ask for one..according to other stories she's obtained the services of a lawyer and I'm guessing the mouthpiece thinks the chances are better with a jury. Why does anybody here care?[/QUOTE]

I care because I live here. It's embarrassing. When I first talked of moving here, a lot of friends and family talked of the STD "study"......that was embarrassing as well.

Why do folks feel sorry for this woman?? She chose to remove her clothes in public. She chose to perform sex in public. She chose to drink and drive. So now she's choosing to have a jury which will bring further attention to TV......before too long its gonna be discussed on all the talk shows.

By your name it appears that you do not live here....well I do and its embarrassing......so don't ask why we care.

Sometimes it seems that the only way we know who we are is by listening to those who carefully craft our image. We are told that we are The Friendliest Hometown, The Healthiest Hometown, the most charitable hometown, and the wealthiest hometown etc. And all of that has to be defended, that's the true agenda: Defending an image.

I say, "we are who we are and no one has to prove anything." We are a cross section of America, period.

I have said all of this talk of TV is ridiculous. Thursday night made me begin to scratch my head and wonder. Only it wasn't the old folks. We were at LSL listening to music when about 6 young women who were in same sex relationships began dancing and behaving in a rather provocative manner. I spoke with one of the young women and she introduced her partner as her wife. I have no problem with it being her wife but I did have a problem with their behavior as it was getting a little raunchy. All were obviously rather intoxicated. Then I walked across the street to Panerea when I saw a deputy sheriff running toward a Community Watch representative. The watch rep said there he goes, a bald man in ablue shirt. Then a few minutes later there were EMTs, fire truck, community watch vehicles and law enforcement. A man had caused a disturbance and had to be tasered. In the DAily Sun his age was listed as 51. Thursday was quite a night at LSL.

If this case goes to a jury trial not only will it burn a lot of taxpayer money but it will no doubt be well publicized by the media. Such a threat of exposure might convince the prosecution to think twice before proceeding. Else, The Villages might become known world wide as "America's Horniest Hometown" or as a "A Sexually Active Adult Community"

Might not this request be viewed as a tactic by the defense to abort any further consideration of prosecution?

Sorry, my bad. I'm a member of other forums where this occurs somewhat regularly due to user error; where folks excerpt portions of quotes to respond to, instead of quoting the whole thing.
