The Issue: Tawana Brawley, who accused innocent men of rape 25 years ago and is now resisting fines.
***
Tawana Brawley should pay what she owes to Steven Pagones (“Brawley’s Defiant Life in Hiding,” Dec. 23).
After all, it was Brawley, with the feverish support of the Rev. Al Sharpton, Alton Maddox and C. Vernon Mason, who trashed the reputations of Pagones and Officer Crist, while telling a lie that could have sent these two honest men to prison for a long time.
It matters that Brawley pay the fine and ’fess up to what she did.

One of the sad results of the Brawley fiasco was that it catapulted Sharpton’s career.
He, Mason and Maddox had to pay damages for the fraud they perpetrated, when they should have been given prison wear.
They deserved no less for the racial divide they caused.
I hope Pagones is successful in his quest to have Brawley pay for her sinister accusations against innocent men.
She did untold damage to their lives. She, too, should have been punished by jail time.
Sharpton built his career through demagoguery.
It’s hard to imagine that the idiots at MSNBC saw fit to give this buffoon face time on their station.
It shows signs of their extreme desperation.
