Local Resident Introduces President Barack Obama

Fact or Fiction About Hopewell officials and politics. If you really know the facts post them here. If you only know of the rumor, clarify that it is only rumor. If you have other "Fact or Fiction" questions let's hear them.

1. Fact or Fiction-Did Sheriff Anderson's wife assault him in a local bar after discovering that he was txt-ing a female city council member?

2. Fact or fiction-Has Councilwoman Bailey had an adulterous relationship with Councilor Cuffey and Sheriff Anderson? Is there really a report on file with the PD about this?

3. Fact or fiction-Are the sheriff's deputies working the traffic enforcement on I-295 really not law enforcement certified?

4. Fact or fiction-Did Mayor Pelham really falsify her travel expense report to the city for her trip to England?

5. Fact or fiction-Did CA Sylvester actually instruct the police officers not to make any felony arrest or obtain any felony warrants without his prior approval?

6. Fact or fiction-Does the Chief of Police really spend more time away from his office than he does attending to his duties?

7. Fact or fiction-Is the morale really so bad within the PD that many officers have resigned during the past 18 months?

1. FACT, I talked to several people who witnessed it first hand.

2. Rumor, but may be true. Don't think there is a report.

3. No idea

4. Rumor, but may very likely be true.

5. FACT, but according to Mr. Sylvester Chief Martin requested it be that way. Mr. Sylvester posted about it yesterday on Facebook. He claims he didn't initiate it, but the policy is still there.

6. Rumor, He has been away alot but at conferences (supposively anyway) so not a vacation or anything.

7. FACT, just lost another one Bevans. 90% of the officers hate Anthony Sylvester and his puppet Chief Martin.

Over the last few days I have been asked if I was the one that posted these comments to this site. The answer...absolutly not.

However, after reading these comments, I felt compelled to post a comment.

As a homeowner in Hopewell, I am not in favor of elected officials here, in Virginia or across the country not honoring AND respecting their postion, representing the citizens in anything less than a professional manner, and making the best decisions based on research, revenue projections, and hearing all citizens, not just a selected few.

Elected officials work for all taxpayers, not one taxpayer or a small group of taxpayers. It is not their personal budget to fund their personal agendas or secure personal gains from backroom deals.

Pretty is as pretty does in this political fish bowl, and if any elected official or member of Hopewell city administration can't see that a lot of people are paying attention to their decisons and behavior, they need to look again.

Lead by example. Honor your elected or hired postion and know that every move you make, you are making it on behalf of 23,000 people and someone will see you. When you make good decisions, Hopewell wins.

Hey everybody. Think we don't know who you are?
