BRATTLEBORO-Why in the world would The Commons publish a story that contained a women's name, her place of residence, that she was unable to defend herself because of a disability, and that she had prescription medication that some would like to get their hands on?
That's crazy to me!
I hope something doesn't happen to this lady after probably thousands of people read that article.
