Election time is within political sight of our ONE TERM do NOTHING but terrorize law abiding, tax paying property owners and citizens sheriff Ric Wilson.
The realization of such medocre political perception by the Wayne county public has apparently motivated the CORRUPT, morbidly obese, incompetent, and poorly trained law enforcement agency to make a VERY public bust of MANY of the "little fish druggies" yet AGAIN as in the last political fiasco and Constitutional outrage called "Unnecessary Medicines", not a SINGLE doctor, pharmasist, physician's assistant, nurse, or ANY medical personnel were arrested or prosecuted.
STILL the crime epidemic in Wayne county goes TOTALLY UNCHECKED by Ric Wilson. Arsons, burglaries, thefts. assaults, drive by shootings, child abuse, vandalism, underage drinking, out past curfew, and MUCH more STILL go UNIVESTIGATED, IGNORED, COVERED UP, and apparently tacitly approved of.
Citizens are terrified of called the Wayne County Sheriff Department because personell within the sheriff department release information about who called to the drug dealer, thugs and criminals "ratting them out"!
Ric Wilson is however a certified EXPERT in getting his picture and articles about him in the newspaper "pole vaulting over preverbial political mouse turds" while the rest of Wayne county, its children, and REAL crime issues go to "pot" and hell in a hand basket.
Among Ric Wilson's priorities of getting his picture in the newspaper is his public monument to himself also known as the Wayne County Criminal JUST-US center. A TRUE boondoggle he falsely claims will cost the tax payers 10 million dollars when is reality it is more likely to be 20 million dollars. Dollars Wayne count DOES NOT HAVE. Wayne county is in the middle of an economic depression, our schools are falling apart, our roads are crumbling, and long time residents are leaving because of crime and corruption..... and this arrogant monument to Ric Wilson's hubris and Napoleanic ego is a priority?????? We don't need the prison industry! We NEED JOBS and a great education for our children!!!!!

continued from above:

Ric Wilson's close association with convicted illegal gun dealer and FELON, Casey Jones is VERY troubling at the least.
Ric Wilson's track record of hiring and associatiing with deputies with violent, racist, and other questionable backgrounds is also VERY troubling. Not a SINGLE BLACK deputy or administrative staff person has EVER been hired by the Wayne County Sheriff Department.
It IS about time Ric Wilson got off of his lard political behind and done SOMETHING! Even though it is a 3 days late and 100 dollars short. It is a sad shame that Ric Wilson is motivated by hubris and a very stubstantiated fear of being a ONE TERM sheriff instead of DOING HIS JOB and setting a high standard for himself and his department of ALWAYS doing the RIGHT THING as well as being as a conscientious, OPEN DOORED PUBLIC SERVANT.
In addition the the outrageous Wayne county JUST-US Center expenditures, Ric Wilson is being sued by Brandon Nance for refusing him medical care for a BROKEN FEMUR while housed in the Wayne county jail. When Ric Wilson was made aware of how serious the injury was, he STILL refused medical care and transferred Brandon Nance to another jail instead. When the receiving jail became aware of the life threatening injury he was Life Flighted to Vanderbilt for life saving emergency surgery. Now Wayne county tax payers are on the hook and being sued for a HUGE sum of money WE DO NOT HAVE thanks to Ric Wilson's gross misconduct.....if not criminal misconduct.
Our socalled main stream media no longer puts out the WHOLE story or ALL the facts and is more accurately described as a propaganda tool as of late. Hence this opinion comment to present the "Paul Harvey REST OF THE STORY".
Yes, Ric Wilson arrested 73 poor, uneducated, law breaking, misguided souls.....NOT for the right reasons and certainly NOT the TRUE and REAL drug dealers who yet AGAIN get off Scott free to sell drugs and continue to destroy our community, our culture, and our children while Ric Wilson looks good in the newspapaer!
I cannot wait for the next election, so the people of Wayne county can throw this abusive, corrupt,(in my opinion) racist, xenophobic, politically nepotistic, state sponsored DOMESTIC TERRORIST out of office.
Good riddance to bad rubbish!

now i will for the most part have to agree with what you are saying. "But" these poor uneducated little fish that you speak of are the ones making it a struggle for the common working "or the ones wanting to get off their ass and get a job and can't find one" man, they abuse the system we have to pay for making "honest" people pay for their "laziness" and career criminal patterns. AS as far as a black person being a deputy. I am sure there has not been a SINGLE BLACK person put in a application. And as far as the Brandon Nance issue goes, if the man hadn't been strung out on dope, he probably wouldn't have had the accident to begin with! should he have recieved better healthcare? probably so. Should he recieve a big settlement? probably no. and as far as the prison industry goes, what else do you see paying around here. wake up man or woman! If you think you can change some of this crap then maybe you should run for sherrif's office. But then again I hope your not like our president, all talk and no action! But getting off in left field a bit I have some words of encouragement for those busted in "OPERATION BIG RIVER" don't expect to recieve much jail time because it is tradition in wayne co. to recieve probation probation probation so you can walk right out the door to peddle your government issued pills once again!!! Have a drug free day Wayne co.!!!

Fedup, please don't mistake my message. I FULLY agree with you that the "little fish druggies" MUST go too. They are in part driving the theft, burglary, and vandalism epidemic in Wayne county, not to mention destroying any scintilla of decent or American culture left in Wayne county.

On the black deputy issue......I beg to differ. I KNOW otherwise and YES a black applicant DID in fact apply to the Wayne county sheriff dept. not that long ago and was told they did NOT hire blacks.

Again I agree with you that Brandon Nance is not likely to be awarded any Nobel prizes, but a prisoner with a pre-existing injury that requires his movements be made with a walker probably does not belong in that jail but that could be a judgement call. ANY person for ANY reason in the Wayne county jail with a BROKEN FEMUR MUST IMMEDIATELY receive PROPER & QUALIFIED medical attention. This kind of injury is a life threatening injury as well as EXTREMELY PAINFUL injury and no human being deserves to be treated like that. Only a sadistic, sociopathic, nut job would do something like that to a prisoner in my opinion.

The prison industry is a BIG money & job loser. Think not?????? Why don't you inquire about how well the prison industry is doing in Clifton? Or go read about Hardin Montana. I am all about lifting Wayne county UP......NOT dragging it down. We need jobs building products such as automobiles, appliances, or manufacturing products like Hassle & Hughes is doing in Collinwood. Problem is, Wayne county is sorely lacking EDUCATED, SOBER, and MOTIVATED workers with a great work ethic. Certainly NOT everyone is this way, but far too many are.

I would kindly suggest YOU wake up. I am mearly trying to point out the OBVIOUS and I strongly suspect what MANY Wayne county people are already thinking. I want the same things YOU do. It WILL NOT happen as long as the "good ol'e boy-status quo" continues.

I am ONE person. I am not going to change much......HOWEVER, WE ALL have just a small piece of the power to effect change and make it happen..........this is called the VOTE. Get out there and VOTE! DO NOT vote for the same sorry people. It IS time to CLEAN HOUSE and wipe the political slate CLEAN and start with NEW & NEVER previously elected people who have a track record of doing the RIGHT THING and are men and women of good character and judgement.

I ask that YOU do something. Get out there and go to Tea Party meetings, write letters and call the sheriff to express your views and opinions about his abuse of power and incompetent, community destroying lack of leadership. Find and support candidates who are RIGHT NOW considering and exploring whether to run in the up coming election. Write letters to the editor and write OP/ED articles for the Wayne County News.(if they will ever publish them) Talk to your county commisioners, executive, and other elected community leaders and tell them what is on your mind.

Lastly, REMEMBER the JUDGES and PROSECUTORS who let these drug dealers and criminals get off with a slap on the wrist and play the probation scam they and the court system are playing on the citizens who are carrying their worthless political hides on the public dole. VOTE THEM OUT! ALL OF THEM! If enough of us do this, CHANGE WILL HAPPEN! The next step is up to you.

CONCERNED PARENT, I AM GLAD THAT YOU AGREE WITH ME ON THE LITTLE FISH ISSUE. ON THE BLACK APPLICANT ISSUE I WILL HAVE TO DISAGREE WITH YOU BECAUSE OF THESE FACTORS. 1) IF THIS WERE SO THE WAYNE CO. WOULD BE IN A RACIAL DISCRIMINATION LAWSUIT. 2) THEY WOULD HAVE THE NAACP INVOLVED. 3) YOU WOULD HAVE JESSE JACKSON AND AL SHARPTON HAVING A PRESS CONFERENCE AT THE COURTHOUSE. THE WCBC WAS ESTABLISHED IN 1984 AND CCA/SCCF WAS ESTABLISHED IN 1992. NOW, IF I AM NOT MISTAKEN THESE TWO PRISONS HAVE BEEN BRINGING IN A STABLE INCOME LONGER THAN ALOT OF THESE MINIMUM WAGE MOVED TO MEXICO FACTORIES THAT LEFT LONG AGO. MAKING "GOOD" MONEY IN THIS COUNTY FOR THE "HONEST" MAN IS A BIG DREAM AND A GRIM REALITY. YOU HAVE A GOOD VISION BUT THE PROBLEM ISN'T ALL SOBER PEOPLE IT IS CALLED "POLITICS". AS LONG AS YOU HAVE THE RICH POLITICIANS CONTROLLING THINGS YOU WILL HAVE TO ASK YOURSELF A QUESTION: WHY WOULD THEY WANT TO GIVE IT UP? THEY TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES AND THEIR FAMILIES NOT YOU OR ME. THEY DON'T WANT US TO GET AHEAD. THIS IS THE WAYNE CO. WAY. THIS IS THE WAY IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN AND WILL ALWAYS WILL BE. I ADMIRE YOUR AMBITIONS AND CONCERNS BUT OUTSIDERS CAN'T CHANGE THINGS IF THEY ARE CAST OUT. AND, AS FAR AS THE SHERRIF GOES, "YOU" TELL HIM ABOUT HIS ABUSE AND NEGLIGENCE AND I WILL SAY THAT "YOU" WILL BE "RETALIATED" AGAINST. YOUR RIGHT ABOUT LETTERS TO THE EDITOR HA HA FORGET IT. AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST: JUDGES AND PROSECUTERS. THESE ARE THE BIG FISH. PICK FROM THE LESSER OF THE TWO OR MORE EVILS. HAPPY VOTING WAYNE CO. AND MY HAT IS OFF TO YOU CONCERNED PARENT. GOD BLESS!

Well, it seems Wayne County has not changed since I was born and raised there. Do you still buy votes with whiskey and money? That's what my Dad was paid for his vote.Now a big drug bust.If you are related to the Mayor or Sheriff,have no fear. Cocaine possession for the average Joe will get you 8-10 years, but if you are a sister-in-law, Bro. Jimmy Turnbow will see that you get one year probation and mandatory rehab and no jail time.I also wanted to mention he pastores a church and works for EMT. Clean up Wayne County.That's his mission. Just don't do anything to hurt his family.

Speaking with a womens advocate group has started a vicious rumor on Jimmy Turnbow. I live in Jacksonville and spoke to someone about the drug bust in Wayne County. Jimmy and Mary Turnbow are my family.They are very devout christians and two of the most upstanding people you would want to know.I do not believe Jimmy Turnbow would do anything unethical.I have no knowledge of what went on in court. I was not there.To me, rehab is always a smarter choice than prison.My apologies to both you,Mary and Jimmy Aunt Doris

Ever see the movie "Cold Mountain"?

All I can say is you better be prepared with plenty of ammo.
As far as big employment opportunity goes; if it happened here, others would move here to fill the jobs. Most of the locals would wash out.
Not true?
Go visit ATK in N. Mississippi. They had the same problem hiring the local elvis loving degenerate, inbred retards. Those jobs have been flipped for out of staters.

However, you won't pay much attention to how much you're spending, and may even deliberately avoid thinking about it. Do yourself a favor and don't go overboard if you can't afford it.
