Good afternoon, Cleveland. Here’s some stuff to read while you get over the shock of Chris Perez not having said anything stupid or inflammatory in over a week.
— Bill Mason will resign as county prosecutor October 1, months before his term is up. Not strange at all. (Cleveland.com)
— A mom with three previous OVI convictions is nabbed for another, this time with her kid in the car. She had a .224 BAC but only admitted to having a margarita at Don Tequilas earlier in the day. In her defense, the report says the margarita was “Texas Size.” (Chronicle Telegram)
— An Ohio death row inmate says he’s too fat to be killed by lethal injection. Ohio could just save some cash and give him a year and an unlimited supply of McDonald’s and he’ll take care of the job himself. (AP)

How is it Bill Mason didn’t get pinched along with Russo and Demora??
An excellent question.
Even weirder, I got a fat envelope in the mail today with the return address “Bill Mason, Cuyahoga County Prosecutor.” It was stuff with eight pages of material touting all the wonderful things he’s done in office. The return address was his home in Seven Hills. I was wondering at whose expense this material was mailed and why.
