Donations were from The Citizens Bank, George B. Stone, Inc., NH Stone, Inc., Peck’s Farm Supply and Thomp- son Transportation Services, Inc. Susan Thompson said, “I got the chance to take the donations to Carlisle and it was an eye-opening experience to see the destruction to our neighbor community and all the volunteer folks helping to bring this community back to life.” Below Photo: Randell Arnett and Sarah Evans with Paris Stockyards brought down a check after the silent auction and cattle sale.

“...POLITICS AND PAYBACK...” $185,000.00 CASH REWARD

Most Rowan County elected Officials and their staffs, have earned our respect, trust, and appreciation.

Do Most of the people that work/visit that County Courthouse know who Attorney (C) is? Do Most of them realize that Attorney (C) accurately described the Fiscal Court’s reason for denying the Variance as PAYBACK/POLITICS? Do Most people realize that Attorney (C) now denies saying “POLITICS & PAYBACK”? Do Most people realize that Attorney (D) put in WRITING that Attorney (A) confirmed that Attorney (C) made the statement that Attorney (C) now denies making? Do Most people think Attorney’s (A), (B), and (D) are all lying? Why would they, all millionaires, with all that to lose? Do Most realize Attorney (C) will not address the situation voluntarily; do his colleagues need to conduct a vote of no confidence in him, and demand his resignation, if he does not unlock the truth from his prior testimony? Do Most people in that Courthouse realize that only 3 are needed of the 5 to vote to correct this injustice? Do Most realize that Whi$tleblowers can score a big WIN for truth and justice, and million$. HOW? A very few individuals know the TRUE FACTS about POLITICS/PAYBACK in this matter. Contact a lawyer you trust, and that lawyer can join with ours to get the true facts of politics/payback to a judge. Thank you, readers of these papers, for your comments, your growing support for us, and for the truth!
