  1. And, of course, he is only one of the commissioners who voted against an audit. All the more reason to order an audit ASAP. Now, is he going to resign or be arrogant and continue to be dishonest with his constituents? Let me guess.

  2. Everyone that knows Sammy is not surprised. He has been bulling his way through Augusta’s government for a while. He thinks he’s untouchable and like others in Augusta’s government thinks he can do what ever he wants to. Augusta’s government is corrupt from the outhouse to the local court house. There are many individuals having sleepless nights about right now. Like the Mayor and other commissioners. Let’s see if Sammy’s attorney is smart enough to inform him to cut a deal with the FBI and GBI. Sammy if you read this your window of opportunity is short. Start with telling others ” We’re caught”
