Neighbor Hood watch eh...?

I can't help but wonder why the LCSO failed to alert citizens about the Magnum house burglars until comments were made on THIS blog about them.

Little wonder the criminals were caught...

...in another county.

Great choice Lamar, looking better every day.

Sorry to burst your bubble buddy but this ain't no sheriff office business here this is Milner, City of. Chief Sutton is the man.

I don't know if this is the Jake Sutton I went to school with, but if so, he looks so much different!

You are so right Lamar County, City of Barnesville and City of Milner are looking better every day! It is a safe feeling to live in a community where Law Enforcement works together. They cannot stop all the crime but at least they are in unity once again!

Bet he would think the same about you!

I think Deputy Shane Moore should be Sheriff. He seems to be great person. Very polite and professional. He gets the job done.

Sometimes it is better to be quiet and let them hit a few more houses in the hopes they will get caught than to tip them off by telling citizens what to look out for.

"Sorry to burst your bubble buddy but this ain't no sheriff office business here this is Milner, City of. Chief Sutton is the man."

For the moment. How many "chiefs" has that backwater had in the last 10 years?

Isn't that the place the framed an innocent man for shooting one of their "finest"? Locked up for six months for something he didn't do. Great bunch of folks...Not.

"You are so right Lamar County, City of Barnesville and City of Milner are looking better every day! It is a safe feeling to live in a community where Law Enforcement works together. They cannot stop all the crime but at least they are in unity once again!"

Yea! Last time this crowd "worked together", they framed an innocent man for a shooting he didn't commit.

Straight out of the 1960's Deep South playbook. Better hope they don't frame you for something!

I love it when someone has to go back 15 years to come up with a negative. And it wasn't a frame job it was one guy who ended up going to jail for that ordeal. Go back another 50 years and you might find one other incident you can blog about. Milner is the place and Sutton is the man.

I love it too when voters "bring back" the same guyr that helped facilitate the framing of an innocent man. Thank God for the GBI.

One thing Hollywood gets exactly right is the depiction of rural law enforcement in the Deep South. The incident in Milner is ample evidence of the "Bubba" factor.

Injustice is something everyone should never forget, and the perpetrator(s) should never be allowed to forget either. I'll never understand why Milner and Waller weren't sued into poverty by that guy. Poor dude probably just wanted to get as far away as fast as possible. Can't blame him at all.

Virginia and New Jersey corrected their mistakes yesterday. Lamar will get it's chance soon enough. Maybe sooner if we are lucky.

That is one scary looking dude

One man was involved with framing that guy and thanks to Waller that ex-cop was arrested and the innocent man was released.Good job sheriff Waller.

He looks sleepy ...

Yeah, you made the right call here. Hollywood is right in how they depict rural southern lawmen, let's run down the list of all the depicting they have done in the past 30 plus years. Bill Gillespy from THe Heat of the Night was a nice guy and definitely not a racist (remember he started dating the black lawyer lady which caused quite a stir in Sparta, Ms.) Now I do remember another famous sheriff Hollywood depicted but I can't remember him doing anything out of line (other than the episode he told the little white lie to sell the towns cannon to the peddler) that was Andy Griffith, heck he didn't even carry a gun. Then there was Buford Pusser who carried a big stick but he was depicted as hero (and rightly so, the thugs couldn't get him so they killed his wife.) Oh yeah, I know who you must be talking about...Rosco P Coetrain from Hazard County. That Roscoe always had a plan to cuff and stuff those Duke boys...Hollywood hit the nail on the head when they depicted this rural lawmen. I like you found the Dukes of Hazards to be a very real life show and really portayed the real trials and tribulations of being a southern lawman and the bubba factor. Good call anon 10:01.

Well, of course he looks sleepy. That burglary business needs to be handled in off hours, and then getting arrested probably happened during business hours when he usually takes his nap.

I heard he was really just trying to find Jesus...
