Only a druggie would say such a thing.I suppose your type thinks selling poison to kids is just another way to make money.I hope this terd gets beat up on a regular schedule for the next twelve years. Ha Ha

[FAIR SENTENCE]

REMEMBER THE OLD SAYING: IF YOU DONT WANT TO DO THE TIME, DONT DO THE CRIME.

Its also not always about a habit, but about easy money! Theres something to be said for getting a JOB!

[adams veteran]

what about all of the other drug dealers in adams that is left behind? Adams may be small but they all come here because we have keystone cops. Or they pay them off and we pay the price. I think one less dirt bag on the street is good for everyone. We still have a lot of work left to do to make adams drug free.

I agree with you!

I never understood why the system lets the wife or girlfriend still keep the children when their other half is busted for drugs. Obviously she was aware he was doing it and out of their house, why not punish her also? No, let him go to a jail a little closer so he can see his children. Did he care about them when he put them in harms way dealing drugs?

[kim richards]

I have to say that I agree with you on this one. The wifey or girlfriend probably reaped the benefits of the extra (or only) income the drug sales provided. The children should be placed in foster care or with alternate family while the mother gets help. The kids are always the ones to suffer most.

[ADAMS-JR]

I wish that the system would clean up this town from junk that lives here now. Start by getting rid of section 8, let these bums and their wives or girlfriends go back to the city that they came from. Too bad that the little kids are exposed to such sad situations.

well sir ia,m not a druggie and i don,t drink ,sell or do any drugs of any kind .its just what i think

Some of the remarks here are vicious and cruel! No...I do not condone what this guy did and agree the wife needs help, she needs help to raise her children better than she has been. though due to the social and econiomic barriers in the berkshires and elsewhere. There are no decent jobs, no decent rental housing that is affordable on a low wage paying job or any light of future hope for many people.% children is alot of responsibility and just because she stayed with the man and had more does not make her a bad person at all, it does not mean she approved of his activities nor does it prove she even knew about the latest occurences leading to hi9s arrest. I feel like she may have felt trapped after the first couple of kids and perhaps she felt there was no future other than raising children for her. I would imagine the state has already looked into her and apparently don't have a problem with her abilities to parent her children.
So leave her out of it!

I totally disagree. There is more help out there for families that are in drug related and abusive situations, more so than if you were a single parent trying to give your child a roof over their head. I am sure she was completely aware of what her husband/boyfriend was doing and by sticking around with her children she was condoning it. If she couldn't "get out of the situation" she wouldn't be a crying pregnant woman in the courtroom with the rest of her children watching their father in cuffs getting dragged away, she would be happy she was out of that situation. Social services should take her children away, or they will be the next ones following in Daddy's footsteps.

I agree, why would you keep having children with a home life of that nature. Should have used the drug money for birth control.

weel that answers the question. She wont have the kids for long. Once she gets sentenced we will be supporting them and placed in foster care. problem is if you dont get the kids out at a very young age, there's not alot of hope. I have seen it 1st hand. They dont take the kids until too much damage has been done.

AGAIN SHE SOLD DRUGS TOO SO YES SHE KNEW ABOUT IT!!!! READ THE ARTICLE "ALL IN THE FAMILY" it says her her dad and mike were selling drugs... DUH

[former middle class]

section 8, food stamps whats the difference? its all public assistance AKA my tax dollars!
How about we assist the working class, not the drug dealers/users.
I know I sure could use some help,but since I make more than the poverty level, I dont qualify. I could use a hand for once.

Yes, a court date,a big bill for the public offender and a suspended sentence like all other female accomplices get in this area.They both belong in the cross bar hotel.Drug dealers are nothing but trash and they are destroying the quality of life for everyone.Did it ever dawn on any of you pro drug crowd that these swine are killing peoples kids? How about the thousands world wide who are murdered every year in drug produceing countries? Did any of these ignorant self centered drug sellers ever think or care about this? How about the workplace being loaded with druggies? Ever have to work with this type trash? I have and I hate them all and wish the all rot in jail.

Oh my god I just realized I know who these people are. I am not condoning the drug use and It is a very horrible situation. but I do know this girl works her tail off at a local dunks and she is a very nice person. I am willing to bet she knew what he was doing but did not allow it at her home with the kids.. she is a good mother. She should deffinately not lose her kids. Although I am not that close with family, I do not know all of the details so I could be wrong.

Again, another woman admits that she does not know the facts yet she speaks anyway!? Does the article say that a mother that works at Dunks cannot be a drug dealer? I think not. Don,t speaketh until you know the facts. And its not like people will be drug free in Adams now anyway.

[kim richards]

I spoke of what I do know. I only admit to not knowing if the mother allowed drug sales in the home, although I highly doubt it... Shut up, who asked you anyway. If you read what I wrote, you would see that I was defending the mother...LOSER
