It's nice to see that the Pastor and Sheriff were willing to take time out of their day to help this man.

He could have simply let one of his officers handle this situation. That's there job, the sheriff is managment.I have worked at several departments where the sheriff would have never went out on a call like this. I think Sheriff waller and Benny both went beyond their call of duty. Good job guys!!!!

#1: What is publisity?
#2: It is their, not there.

Really Lamar? Come on...


BTW, good job everyone. It is sad to see our veterans end up this way. I can only imagine what the current fighters are going to be like in the future, without the proper care from our government.

I fill about the sherief like i feel about the presidential elections.They are both good men in their own way, and if they wanted to do what was best for this county they should quit their fighting and team up.That would be the best thing for this county,every one could keep their jobs and crime would be scared to death to show its face in this town.

Your are going to see a lot more of this kind of stuff as times get even harder. Economic pressure has a way of pushing people beyond their level of self control. This was obviously a cry for help. It's good to see that he found it. Others my not be as lucky.
