Sounds like Augusta..
Gary Jones has no agenda other than the protection of the public he serves. Once again he found a need for outside investigation and has been met with contempt by those who choose not to be transparent. The light will disclose any who have been shielded by darkness they created.
“This is not Gary Jones’ first brush with the law, so to speak.” Poor choice of words here, Mr. Hudson, even if tongue in cheek.
Gary, to what address do we send donations for your legal expense fund?
Speaking truth to power is not without risks.
Mayor Jones has a proven track record that the community respects. What Chief Burley, who couldn’t be reached for comment, and Vice Mayor James Jones fail to understand is that Mayor Gary Jones has an eye for irregularities, understands the process better now than when he started in Grovetown. Hopefully the elected officials in Waynesboro step up and resolve the errors. I’m glad there’s protection for Major Jones for doing the right thing.
Refreshing to see honest people looking out for the taxpayers and exposing political corruption.
Seems like no local governments want outside people taking a close look at their finances? Hmmmm wonder why?
Austin Rhodes interviewed Mr. Jones on air via phone yesterday. I believe Mr. Jones’ account of the details to be truthful and accurate. I see him as a genuine, honest public servant.
That he is
I believe there have been some other evaluations done by an outside consultant for the WPD. It seems those were not acknowledged by the Chief or the City Council. From my understanding, there were other irregularities and abuses found and have been ignored.
Sad that elected officials cover each other. If there is nothing wrong why are you refusing an outside audit? Raised my children in Waynesboro and hate to see this.
Mr Jones has always been a genuine man to my knowledge
