Apparently Lank owes nearly $40,000 in back child support. Very disingenuous of him to claim he "didn't realize there was such a problem", when he is obviously years behind in his child support, or that he was more concerned about the daughter who ran away in OCTOBER to attend hearings in August and September. <BR/>Now he is trying to make Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142717997793169060.post-80330437872060870152008-01-26T23:01:00.000-05:002008-01-26T23:01:00.000-05:00I truly do not feel any sympathy for Mr. Lank. Hi...I truly do not feel any sympathy for Mr. Lank. His arrest is his own fault, not the Gazette's. And what was he thinking, running for public office knowing the law was looking for him? I'm glad this came out before the election, rather than after. Fathers who do not take care of their children are scum. I agree with the earlier poster - if he won't take care of his own child, how well will he Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142717997793169060.post-36818877056042078962008-01-26T15:38:00.000-05:002008-01-26T15:38:00.000-05:00Lock him up and throw away the key...he has been d...Lock him up and throw away the key...he has been dodging his responsibility and the LAW for nine years. My guess is that the $5000 he owes from 1999 is just the tip of the iceberg, as one of his daughters is still a minor!<BR/>The democratic party has had enough scandals.

He has children and just because a marriage ends does not mean that responsibility for the health and welfare of the children of that marriage ends. That this arrest comes 2 weeks before an election is purely serendipitous. It is not as if the courts had not been trying to find him for the past 9 years.

The Frederick Gazette participated to help him be arrested for "child support" issues on Friday, the 25th of January, 2008, and why did they just have to do this to him two weeks prior to the primary election. I think this pretty much destroyed any chances of Rick Lank being the nominee in District Six. I still cannot fathom why a news person would do this unlessAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
