"It's my wife that wants me to." Board of Ed. Candidate cites spouse as reason for police report
Former Board candidate places blame on wife for filing police report, contradicting the previous violent threat narrative.
Middletown - Back in October, candidate Mark Soporowski filed a police report against the Board Vice President, citing threats of violence from the latter party. CJN has obtained the bodycam footage from Soporowski’s meeting with police.
The report, which took place a day before the October 17th Board of Education meeting attended by Soporowski and his wife, shows a calm and collected Soporowski. Contrary to the media report of feeling threatened, Soporowski claims he’s “fine” while appearing to joke with the female officer. He then quizzes the officer, almost flirtatiously, about where his bar is located.
”Just vote for me,” laments Soporowksi, frustrated by his belief that Middletown residents are unaware of where they live. Soporowksi’s wife was not present at the time of his report with the female officer.
Soporowksi’s campaign, noted for its personal attacks, fabricated accusations, and release of dubiously obtained documents, garnered only 2,723 votes (6.12%) placing him dead last in the race for the Board.
