I've been puzzled about the persistent disappointment that I'm not writing crime #blotters as in earlier days, naming everyone who got a DWI or committed some misdemeanor this week.

The city of #DemingNM and its police chief are so unhappy, the city is now producing its own blotter on its website, naming everyone.

My best guess is that there is a desire for extra-judicial punishment. Might not get a conviction, but we can shame them? I dunno, but that's my guess.
