Today on The Joe Mangiacotti Show at 1:00 PM on WCRN 830 AM, we’re looking at two stories that raise serious questions about integrity, law, and accountability in public institutions.

First, Virginia’s Attorney General is blasting Fairfax County officials for refusing to charge a registered sex offender—what does this say about the rule of law, prosecutorial discretion, and public safety?

Then, we’ll turn to Iowa, where the case of former Des Moines Superintendent Ian Roberts is unraveling. Roberts, once celebrated as an education leader, is now facing scrutiny for false claims about his academic record and questions over his immigration status after ICE placed him in detention. With revoked credentials and a resignation in hand, the situation raises troubling issues about how school boards vet candidates, the importance of transparency in public service, and whether immigration law is being applied consistently and fairly.
