Former LCSO captain arrested
A former captain with the Lamar County sheriff's office has been arrested and charged with taping a 'stinger grenade' to an inmate's neck. The incident allegedly occurred on July 9, 2007.
I do agree with #10...whom ever knew about this and did nothing should be punished.
Oh well. I'snt Barnesville Great!!
Has there been a reason this person did this been made public?
Fast forward to 2010 and the same bag of tricks on display again.
Thanks Milner voters, for making this stuff possible again. Lamar could surely have done without "bringing back" incompetent people like this.
Now what?
Oh and it's called Nolle Prosequi=no evidence that I had done anything wrong! Nothing disappeared into thin air! LCSO was in no way involved in the case so it didn't matter Who was the Sheriff! Just like there is no evidence that I have ever had a child taken from me by DFACS because I was caught buying crack with ANY child in the car with me! NEVER HAPPENED!DFACS lied to a judge (perjury) because the likes of you said it was true! In fact, there is no truth to even One of the 23 lies you told in your report to DFACS about me 3 days before forging this document! IF you have any RELIABLE evidence that I used meth while I was pregnant or after I had my child I'd like to see it because it was OBTAINED ILLEGALLY, I have never seen it! You titled yourself GRANDMOTHER and I do not believe you have any legitimate grandchilren because you chose to forego filing the legitimization papers and opted to forge a deprivation petition in an attempt to gain illegal custody of my son! After YOU made him deathly ill and weren't allowed to keep him no more! I don't really care what the likes of you say about me cuz we both know you! All I ask is that you stop lying about me in several of these comments on this website(defamation).
For the public, I am sorry that I had to air all of this here it was not my intention but the court records speak for themselves GO LOOK! Also I have two questions. Why does a case need to go before a grand jury to indict when a probable cause hearing was already held in which a judge found the person probably did it! Do we now have the liberty of TWO chances at a probable cause hearing before we go to trial? If so no wonder there are so many blatant violation of oaths! 1 out of the 2 chances an oath taker has he's bound to have A FRIEND in the decision especially in a small town!If I took an oath I would make sure I didn't make a mistake in the paper work or I would expect to be punished, punished doubly if I tried to cover it up especially when it involved an innocent child! That's intent no mattter how you look at it! Secondly, if someone tried to gain illegal custody of your child or any of your property wouldn't you at least like to know the clerk made sure the papers were Authentic and be angry if she didn't?
Many children in the county are taken illegally, and the paperwork that is usually filed in those cases do not always follow the letter of the law, they follow "whatever the corrupt officials damn well please".
Keep your head in the sand, or rather if the allegations by anon above are true, then you're just as sick as the rest of the baby snatchers!
#4 This woman made a false report to DFACS on a Wed. Fri. the puntative father sent this woman to the courthouse to file legitimization papers that he HAD signed! What got filed and notarized by a court clerk was a deprivation petition that the mother admittedly forged HIS name to! The clerk and this woman tried to get the father to sign it after I confronted the clerk about it to save the clerks butt which he did not do! 5# This woman had not been in my home and had 1 supervised visit with my child since he was less than 1 month old because she gave him 4 ounces of undiluted prune juice and made him deathly sick! I am 43 yrs old and I visited prenatal care 2/week during my pregnancy. My child was not born positive for drugs and I never tested positive. My son was seen 1/month at Wic appointments by a nurse and 1/month by his doctor and a heart specialist. He was 60% weight and growth. He was out of my care 4 or 5 times with my mother or this woman only. Those who know me know I took care of my son perhaps 3 times better(sad to say)than my daughter 20 yrs ago. She lives on her on, attends college, doesn't do drugs and was never abused though I made some mistakes! This woman attempted to get my child illegally after she had hurt him, a court clerk and DFACS helped her. DFACS declaired my mother who worked at the court house for 34 years UNFIT, they slammed her character! DFACS tried to give this woman custody of my son. She passed a drug test but then when her son found out she used drugs right after and confronted her about it SHE DIDN'T SHOW UP IN COURT the next day. I could not discuss the forgery during the hearing cuz it was irrelevent but the father was questioned extensively about it! DFACS has been at all the hearings about it! If it wasn't relevant to my case why were they there? This judge retaliated on me for trying to prosecute her clerk for breaking the law and she took my child! They made it appear that 2 people where saying I wasn't taking care of my child when it was ONLY THIS WOMAN. There is No evidence of ANY abuse or neglect! The clerk was the court reporter! Wilson,Whitwell,Thomas,Abbott,the commissioners,Mayfield, Waller and Milam all know about the forgery and Whitwell's retaliation. I can't get an appeal out of this county because my court appointed attorney failed to file before the deadline and then she asked to be removed from my case. I can't get services that DFACS said I needed because They have asked to be removed too! I have no attorney, no visitation, no review, no services, no nothing and my child is with my mother until he gets 18 with no recourse! Yet my parental rights have not been terminated! I can't visit my mother who is my best friend cuz my son is there! They took my child to give him to THIS WOMAN and then they all backed out when she failed to show! Why because they broke the law! It has taken me 10 months but I have learned the law and there are 31 Judicial erros in my case but I cannot appeal because it is too late! I missed his first christmas, birthday,tooth,step and word! Imagine having a infant taken from you for a minute....I am beyond grief, unable to function on a day to day, mentally defeated but I am not worried about me! I am worried about my son! He is the one being punished and he might very well be brain damaged! Everyone who knows this woman knows she had dealt WEED most of her life. Every lawyer that has looked at my case says the whole thing is bogus but they wont take the case because I am "MARKED" and "BROKE"! I cry myself to sleep every night and I wake up wanting to chain myself to the capitol building door until someone listens to me but then They'd say I am CRAZY! This is my child! This woman lost a child to death you would think she would know my heart and life is devastated! Yet she continues to bash me knowing I grieve! KNOWING THE TRUTH! She wanted my child and she almost got him BUT she is no better than me! She lives on the government, in a house with 2 grown children and her mother! She makes regular visits to a penitentary to visit her boyfriend and smokes weed every day. GOD HELP HER!
"ANOTHER GRANDMOTHER"! NOT "GRANDMOTHER"
I see that several people are quick to jump on the "this sheriff, that sheriff" bandwagon, but is it possible this has little to nothing to do with the sheriff's office and is about something else altogether?
This is ALL about politics and nothing else.
WHen a Sheriff takes office from a prior adminstration, there is of course dirty laundry and prior complaints that was covered up and/or simply not investigated due to certain reasons...The current sheriff has a duty to perform these type of investigations even though they might seem to be political sometimes..Its a double edge sord, you get cut both ways...In this case rather political or not, the Sheriff did in fact do the right thing by not investigating this file himself, but requesting the GBI perform the investigation. The GBI don't make up evidence, its either there or its not....People, as a retired Cop myself and had never worked for LCSO, The right thing was done in this case...Somebody has to Police the Police!! I have respect for this sheriff for his actions knowing he was going to take heat in doing so...I am sure he has lost some votes by doing this....But the fact still remains, he did what was right...Now its up to the courts to determine if these alligations are true...
