There are three more benches going in on Voght going up the hill and in front of the RCMP building.
A source with in the city says that council voted recently to install them.The benches are an attractive design with steel wagon wheels for protection and hand rails at each end. The first prototype was build locally and complement the bus shelters about town.
However the first bench installed after this vote is without the wheels and has a stenciled relief of Merritt Inc 1911. the city incorporated to undertake an electricity generation scheme that after supplying power caused the towns insolvency by a relief act of the provincial legislature.
A councilor H. Kroeker was a former building supply owner and a recent emphasis on trades in the high school and college seems to indicate a bent toward the construction of unwanted housing. A home was build for a private owner on Garcia Street using the high schools students and equipment a couple of years ago and they placed a beam and rock center to mark the completion of the trades and transition project.

There is at this time an inquiring going on in this province as to the long delay and trail of a serial killer Robert Picton. The inquirery is headed by a former Attorney General of the province Wally Oppal and has already flushed out some disturbing items including a public relations officer that has said that she will testify on behalf of the victims and not her employer the RCMP. She has been quoted in the papers as saying that she was the victim of sexual harassment and that her superiors were more interested in drinking and her then solving the crime. The harassment part would make her a hostile witness to the events and it all seems a troubling affair.
A local fellow says he has a transcript of a trial of a local train robber from Kamloops shortly after the turn of the 20th century and it took two weeks to secure a 15 year conviction based on eye-witness ( credible) and the possession of registered mail; must have been simpler times.
We think that a incrediable expense and waste of time is appearant and if there is an undisclosed benifit to the investigation it needs to be disclosed by statement from the police and investgators. As this expense is now salt in a wound.
