Police found five gallon-sized plastic bags of marijuana, drug paraphernalia, $19,296 cash and a handgun in the home of a Shippensburg man who barricaded himself in his attic on Wednesday.

You can run but you can't hide. Selah!

[Unknown]

Didn't anyone do a check on this guy before they hired him as a maintenance man.If not,poor hiring procedures

[Unknown]

He currently was not the maintenance man. He was fired 2 weeks prior to this all happening. He was a very nice man who made some poor decisions.

[psychojinx]

who evidently didn't learn from his prior poor decisions... at least now I know why the police chopper was over shipp

[Unknown]

We all make mistakes...sometimes more than once. I pray that he learns from his mistakes this time.

[asag]

I pray that he goes Bye Bye for a long time. One more drug dealer off the streets. That is on less person to sell drugs to kids that know no better. Mistakes are mistakes but 19 some thousand $'s and a Glock,, come on he had to of known he was in the wrong. Maybe Jail will give him somemore education and when he gets out he'll be a hard working citizen, paying Taxes on the money he earns.

[Hamid]

A poison peddler. No mercy for this dog who would sell drugs to children and ruin lives. The judge who decides on this case should not be a wimp but a strong person who will hand down a strong sentence to this man.

[No name]

I feel bad for his three kids. when is Troy going to grow up

[asag]

The kids are the ones that pay for this... For the rest of their lives they are going to be know as the kids that father was busted with thousands of dollars made from drugs, and a crazy person who had a stand off with tons of COPS!!
Poor kids is the only way to say it. I pray that all goes well with them.

i think you all need to get a life. People screw up okay get over it he got to deep and he knows it he has already been in jail and knows what its like but hes about to spend alot more time there which he deserves. But most of you must not have lives to be sittin here talking about someone you dont even know. My uncle was an awesome man and i love him so you can go screw yourselves.

[pissed_off]

Let's look at the real issue here.... this man was a victim of the system the first time. He had no guidance or mentoring while he was in prison the first time. That's why he chose to do what he did this time.

Now for those of you who didn't know him... let me fill you on the facts... Troy is a great human being and he has a lot to contribute to this world. He got caught up in the wrong crowd and chose the wrong path... haven't we all?? Maybe not to the extent that Troy did but it happens to everyone. He loved his family and would do anything to help anyone he loved and was close to. If you are worried about your kids buying drugs then why in the hell don't you know where they are and what they are doing? Don't blame someone else for your neglegence as a parent. Troy would have never intentionally harmed a child or intentionally affected their lives. If you knew Troy like all of you allegedly claim to you would know that his kind heart was bigger than most peoples.

If you have nothing else to do but post negative comments about someone that you obviously don't know then maybe you should get a hobby. I hear that ceramics are the new hot things.

Grow up and make sure your kids aren't doing what they shouldn't be.

XOXOXOXO

Don't thank us, very-sad, until we agree with you.

There are lots of kind hearted drug dealers out there.
I suppose all blame should go on the parents of kids that buy drugs from a kind hearted drug dealer. He's only trying to help the community feel better. He doesn't keep the money for himself. Its all donated to charity.

Besides drugs are a victimless crime, right?

What bridge was that in Fulton county for sale?

[SeeHere]

The drugs you should be concerned about are the Government approved FDA drugs that get you addicted and kill you. Their long term effects are totally unknown. NOBODY has ever died from marijuana. If Nixon would have followed the advice of his Drug Commission, headed by the governor of Pa, this would not even be a criminal offense.

[Oh ME2]

Oh jiminy cricket, it's HIS fault that HE chose to MAKE the STUPID decisions and set HIS course for HIS life and NO ONE ELSE !!!!!

He was convicted before, spent time in jail, knew he was a felon and could not possess a gun legally and chose to once again deal in drugs, so too bad, so sad, enjoy the Pen!!!!

PA should be like CA and have a 3 strikes, you're out law for felons !!!!
