IN THE DOCKET
6/22/25 letter to city and county:
I understand that Blaine City Council as a group viewed the CCTV of Blaine City Councilman Mike Hill accosting Blaine Water Coalition spokesman Otto Pointer at the November 12, 2024, Blaine City Council meeting. In the video, one can see council members Richard May, Rhyan Lopez, and Mary Lou Steward looking on as Hill walks clear across the room to stick his finger and shout in the face of Mr. Pointer.
None of them or the council as a whole publicly discussed this disgraceful behavior by Hill, nor was Hill censured by the council--leaving the public with the clear warning that opposing official corruption can get you assaulted, or worse. That's the message Blaine City Council sent by their silence. This is not merely cowardice; it is malign intent toward public participation and civil rights that will land the city in the docket.
