I should note right off that, after taking a few weeks off from my column writing duties to travel overseas and help a friend clear out his late mom’s house, I half expected that a Carbondale case involving what many view as police overreaction might somehow have been straightened out. But, nooooo, as they say, it looks like the case is continuing against Michael Francisco, a Black local resident whom the local police apparently judged either guilty of pointing a finger while Black (at a City Market gas-station attendant back on Christmas Eve), or simply guilty of shopping while Black.
