So my question is, he still being paid as a county commissiioner?
He is no longer a County Commissioner.
A new Commission was convened on January 1, 2023.
The REAL question is — How long did he continue to get paid, AFTER he was indicted/convicted ?? Those monies need to be returned to the taxpayers.
My question is have they changed the name
of the road that was named for this convicted felon?
This has been a pet peeve of mine for years. It’s my belief that NOBODY other than him had the road sign up. I doubt you’ll find any reference to any kind of vote to have done this. He probably just called the sign department himself
It is really sad that politicians get by with almost anything that is against the law. Average Citizen’s that pay these crooks salary and perks would have been in jail months ago. Folks, this is why our Country is on the verge of total Government Control, and virtual collapse. Politicians have dumbed down the electorate to secure their vote, and then having control of every facet of their lives. Sound’s like Russia, China, Iran, Cuba and other countries run by despots. It is scary.
As long as The State is handing out free everything to voters, The State will remain in control, Comrade. You will soon be living in a third-world economy, with rationed electricity, gasoline, food, and medical care, and State-directed production of housing and consumer goods. We will still have a first class military to keep the proletariat under control and protect the Party Members.
IMHO, the military folks that are now in control do not seem very ‘hawkish’, case in point, the China balloon situation. The current administration has allowed our Country to be laughed at by what used to be our allies. We are the laughing stock of the free world. Can anyone say Biden, Harris fiasco?
Can TAP at least digitally superimpose prison stripes over the tuxedo?
This is so ridiculous. Put him in jail! Can he keep changing attorneys to continue making delays? I thought his appeals had already been denied. Apparently not.
Judge Epps needs to work a little harder, and get Sammie “Blow-up Mattress” Sias in Federal “Big Boy” jail. Maybe Hardie will let him borrow Ed, when he is done with his divorce.
Appeals can be worked on while he is incarcerated. His attorney does’t need him face to face for any information. It is all in the court records.
He has to face reality. Do the crime and now serve the time. Just another low-life Richmond County politician who embarrassed Augusta.
just wasting taxpayer money as usual. enough with the appeals, time for go to jail card.
