Two stories scream out for national attention, both coming from small Illinois country towns and both demonstrating man's inhumanity to man.
The first involves Kim Stubblefield, a 48-year-old woman who worked all her life and who has been left to die in a ragged, rundown hotel room, turned away from hospitals because she can't afford health insurance.
The second involves Darrel Hanson, a 51-year-old man who is being left in jail to rot after recently being convicted for threatening public officials by email over an attempted city "land grab" of his property. For his email violation, he faces a 10 year prison term.
