Congratulations Carolee!

After what seemed as an endless trial lasting many weeks, today the Town of Newtown's Board of Selectmen came to the decision to re-instate Carolee Mason into her job as Animal Control Officer. Considering their options were to re-instate or leave the termination, as is and face, and most likely lose, a wrongful termination lawsuit, they chose the wisest route. This way everyone wins-except for one group, who I can't say much about. All I can say is the good people stood tall and the folks with ulterior motives were "put down," so to speak. Carolee isn't off the hook. She'll have to work hard to impress her superiors and keep her job, but with the support of the animal activists in town and her friends and family, she'll be off to a good start!

The reality sinks in...the trial is over and Carolee has her job back!

Congratulations Carolee!
