Ken Jakes is the kind of crusader for honest government and justice we need in the Metro Council. Last week he took action on the Fair Board issue and this week, David Torrence. This is not something new for Ken Jakes. He has a track record of fighting corruption, incompetence and abuse of power on the part of Metro Government. He is a thorn in the side of corrupt, incompetent and arrogant bureaucrats and politicians. Too often people get elected to Council and then never speak out on the floor and never raise issues. They get elected and then want to get along with everyone and not make waves. Ken Jakes would not be that kind of councilman.
Below is Ken's latest effort to force ouster proceedings against David Torrence.

Mr.Tory Johnson and Ms. Sue Cain,
On May 20,2011 I hand delivered a complaint letter to both of your offices against David Torrence as a first step in ousting proceedings as per State statue regarding a citizens right.
Our Davidson County Council who are elected by the people passed by resolution requesting that ouster proceedings be taken against David Torrence. I know the resolution itself has no bite to it or really is just a request but at least it should show that this is the will of the people.
The people are looking to the both of you to just do the right thing and start the proceedings. Mr.Johnson let's not forget that you yourself are an elected official and in my opinion there are duties and responsibilities that go with your office and failure to perform your duty and responsibility could be looked on by the people as negligence.
1. Mr.Johnson from your office my request is below:
All emails, letters, hand written notes, or any other documented material concerning the case against David
Torrence as requested by the Council and complaint letter by me. This pertains to any by you or any of your
staff.
2. Ms.Cain from your office my request is below:
All emails, letters, hand written notes, or any other documented material concerning the case against David
Torrence as requested by the Council and complaint letter by me. This pertains to any by you or any of your
staff.
When this is ready for my review please notify me. It is not necessary to review both request at the same time.
I am willing to spend as much time in review as necessary. This information to review is so that I may have all records so I may start to prepare my case against David Torrence.
One citizen of thousands who is totally disgusted with this issue,
Ken Jakes.
