District Attorney Diane Gibbons yesterday called the rampant courthouse rumor that she is checking staff phone records to determine who is talking to Terry Houck, the ex-prosecutor and her opponent in the upcoming election, "absolutely the most ludicrous, stupid thing [she] has ever heard."

But Houck, who was booted from his job by Gibbons after announcing last month that he would be campaigning for her job, said he believes it's true.

Hope this helps.
Saludos,

Bye
