outgoing sheriff a sore loser

[Lee Barner]

as I mentioned back in august, a friend of mine got elected sheriff. well, when he took over Monday, his office was locked, his official vehicle was locked(both with the keys inside) and the computers were locked with unknown passwords. how high school can you get. cost them $300.00 to get everything unlocked and he computers fixed. many files erased from the computer but they can probably be retrieved. the former sheriff could not be reached for comment by the local news media(really?) lee

Maybe they need to dock that final paycheck,eh?

I remember something like that happening in another transition years back and it involved the letter W

Tell him to keep an eye out for doo doo pellets in the shotguns.

As I have posted before, there are sadly, petulant sycophants who get to wear badges for a time. Glad this one got deposed.
It paints honorable cops with a dirty brush.

Simple things for simple minds,,,,What a shame!

I believe I would look closely around for other maybe more serious omissions or just out right sabotage.. Just saying.. He sort of left you a tip on things to come...

 

[arjay]

I wonder what was in the missing files [emoji57]

 

[Lee Barner]

he also kept his badge and ID so I'm sure my friend will be wanting badge #1 soon. lee

Its begining to look like the outgoing sheriff of el paso County is going to do the same thing

Sounds like a guy who needed to be voted out.

Don't know if you caught it on the news, but Macon County had a rather eventful sheriff's race as well.

Wow... not sure what to say now.

At least he didn't do what a former Dekalb County, GA Sheriff Sydney Dorsey did. He had two men gun down the Sheriff Elect Derwin Brown two days before he was due to be sworn in. They opened up on him when he got out of his car at home.

Sheriff's race in Clark Co Indiana is pretty nasty, too. Highest paid elected official in the county and opportunities galore to scam from operating the jail.

Check the brake lines.

Out of everything, I would think tampering with county computers would be a criminal offense.

The big....

The big BABY!

Hi Lee Barner,

I see you are from NW Tenn. I thought Tennessee only had an east and a west. I didn't think it was "tall" enough to have a north and south. Just kidding.

nicky4968, I already called him and told him that. thanks. lee
