We reported earlier that Dallas County uses criminals to operate their shredding program. It seemed like they county comissioners had seen the light after the situation was shown on the news. It is hard to believe that anyone would consider convicted criminals to be the best source of labor when handling sensitive information about county residents.

But we can now say it is impossible to underestimate the Dallas County comissioners. They downplayed any problems with the current system. It doesn’t appear that they have any intentions of using a reputable Dallas shredding service. Or even using people without a criminal record do the work. Even with the knowledge that the current system led to an identity being stolen.

I award the Three Stooges Shredding award to the Dallas County comissioners for not caring a bit about the people who elected them. When the county is paying for credit protection for all of the residences they might rethink their inability to act today.
