Gerard Martin paints grieving widow as a liar

Disgraced Bathurst MP, Gerard Martin has spun a story in the Lithgow Mercury today in an attempt to paint the woman he failed, Velma McFadden as a liar. In the article, Mr Martin said he and his office had done everything they could to help Mrs McFadden and would continue to do so.

In a statement provided to the Mercury, the Ambulance service denied that an ambulance which was dispatched when Mrs McFadden's husband was having a heart attack got lost. They claim that the second phone call they received from Mrs McFadden gave them further information on the location which assisted them in getting there. Mrs McFadden claims she was told during that call that the ambulance got lost.

This article follows claims by carennetruth, who was confirmed on Sydney Indymedia as being Carenne Special School assistant principal Lee Churches last night that Mrs McFadden was a liar.
