Lakewood Forgeries Probe Hits Local Effort
Lakewood Civic Council president says the uproar over alleged forgeries on South Lakewood incorporation petitions is unfair to workers. Dent Mist Attorney Ted Sten says about 30 petitions are under investigation while no charges are pressed yet. Smickel calls for DA scrutiny of alleged Lakewood signatures amid the annexation vs incorporation fight. The DA states the office will determine if forgeries exist and who did them, staying neutral in the political clash.
