Is it okay for me to come out of hiding yet?
Early this week, word came out that officials from McCurtain County – the remote southeastern Oklahoma outpost where the sheriff and county commissioners discuss where to bury journalists while reminiscing about the good old days when they had lynchings at Mud Creek – announced to the public they were having a public meeting 241 miles away in Oklahoma County.
Help why are McCurtain County Commissioners holding their monthly meeting in *checks notes* Edmond?!?

That’s weird.
I can see Oklahoma County officials booking a large AIRBNB cabin and having a big open meeting in Broken Bow, but outside of scouting places near Lake Arcadia, Oak Tree, or the Purina factory to bury journalist bodies, why would the McCurtain County officials hold a meeting in Edmond?
KFOR got in touch with country officials and got some clarification:
