The article you said you have deleted is still online. I hope it goes away. Would you please publish the statement below so that people will know that the case has been dismissed. All the papers in Greenwich are going to publish it:

All charges stemming from the December 2007 arrest of Dorothy Darko for counterfeit checks have been dismissed by the Stamford Superior Court as Darko was a victim of a counterfeit check scam.

Dear Dorothy,

The article has been removed for days now.

If you click on the link you get a message that the page is not found.

The Cached version of the story is on Google's main servers and there is really not much we can do about that.

The Greenwich Roundup article from a year and a half ago was very sensitive to your position by writing.....

12/31/07 - More Greenwich PD Civil Rights Violations? They were arrested, Darko said, "in a most humiliating way without even reading us our rights."

.....Accused Mother, Son Claim They Were Duped....

.....Quote: "We will be cleared in the end, but at considerable financial and psychic cost.".....

....Not permitted by the police to investigate the envelope or to contact UPS as to who sent the package, they were arrested, Darko said.....

.....With their bail paid by a friend, Darko discovered a New Jersey return address on the UPS envelope that was confirmed by UPS authorities. Darko learned of similar scams taking place at both UPS and Federal Express. "The UPS security director called me," said Darko, "that hundreds of such packages containing forged travelers checks have been sent to people randomly." They advised Darko to contact the FBI......

....."We can't understand why human beings can do such cruel acts that have destroyed our reputation," said Darko......

Two persons have told Greenwich Roundup that they thought you should have left the artcle up with a statement about the final outcome.

When Greenwich Roundup mentions someone in a post usually becomes the first or second listing in the Google search results under their name or business name.

In your case a Google search of your name shows....

An article you wrote about HIV is number 1

The Greenwich Roundup post is number 2

Your business website is number 3

Your campaign contributions and donations are number 4

And your recent statement published in the Greenwich Time is number 5

Google generally places a high value on Greenwich Roundup's original content.

Today Google gave Greenwich Roundup a page rank of 7 out of 10.

Today the Greenwich Time had a Google page rank of 6 out of 10.

The page rank results vary, but we have not seen Greenwich Roundup with less than a 4 out of 10 for well over a year now.

Yesterday 1,803 unique visitors came to Greenwich Roundup to read what is really going on in town.

You can rest assured that most of these visitors understand that you have been cleared in the check cashing scam.
