    1. Good job by the Sentinel and Enterprise for letting the people in their area know that this man is missing and to look out for him. It seems the population at the Development Center is a lot different than in previous years.and it is up to them to retrain their staff to meet the needs of their clients, and to keep everyone safe. Is a open setting policy in the best interest of the community, or is it a smoke screen to give the illusion that problems are few and far between with the clients they have now ?? It will come out in the wash, as it always does. Bev.
