thankyou for posting this, Teresa...the truth needs to be known, and Doc's name needed to be cleared. Misty acts the victim, but Doc is the true victim here. Misty is an EVIL woman, I personally feel it each time I have ever had any contact with her. She truly ruined his life, subsequently causing him to end his life. He was full of love, talent, energy, and kindness. I truly feel what goes around comes around..Misty has some serious bad Karma surrounding her, and it will eventually catch up to her. thanks again....and Brooke, my prayers go out to you. Your Daddy was a very special man.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. I cannot believe that someone who claims to be such a friend and soulmate would drudge a man's "good name" and bare his frailties for the world to see just so she can throw daggers at another woman. You aren't kidding anyone with your numerous personalities, writing responses to your own articles, claiming to be "others" who support and share your same sentiment. You are a farce and a complete moron if you think that anyone believes your crap besides yourself. Give it a rest and stop polluting the forums with your delusions.

You must be a friend of Misty. The author of that story told the absolute truth and anyone who knew him and her knows what she did and how she still continues to this day to spread her lies about Doc. The reporter has done nothing to discredit him. That was done before he died by Misty, not the reporter.

I applaud the reporter. Get off her back. She has more support than you'll ever know, for her efforts.

[wake up]

The man was a dope selling/ dope smoking fool. He was arrested by the cops for stealing his exwifes pain patches and beating her up. Wake up people this is the kind of trash that lives in rockaway beach. As soon as they all overdose from the drugs, we will get our town back. Now that DOC the dug dealer is dead I bet the sale of drugs will go down. and another thing, he had his money taken from his bank account, GOOD!! DOC the drug dealer gained power of attorney from a girl who was mental. Doc the drug dealer took all her money out of her bank account. Dont be sad for DOC dying, be glad that peace of shit is dead....

[YOU WAKE UP SCUMBAG]

All those who really knew Doc knows exactly who you are from your post MONEY BOY, Tattoo M and Misty!
Your the liars, scum bags and drug dealers that threatened his life over and over. You and Misty are the drug dealers. How dare you speak such vile lies about a man who isn't here to defend himself. SCUM BAG! Doc was a GREAT guy. Gentle, caring and considerate, even when he was drunk! But he didn't do any drugs you fool.
Ya know, the reporter is not the only one that Doc talked to. He did have alot of other friends who knew EXACTLY what you scum bags were doing to him for so long. This is just another example of the shit you and Misty did to him, by ruining his reputation even more.
FILTY MOUTHED ANIMAL! Your not fit to wipe my ass or Doc's with. Your the one that should be dead from the drugs YOU do. Doc didn't do drugs, fool, he drank! EVERYONE knows THAT!
He didn't have power of attorney over anyone you lying bastard.
Your the one we wish was dead. Doc did alot for Rockaway Beach with all the shows he did for BACA and more. What have you EVER done? ROTTEN SLEEZY SCUM MONEY BOY! Your and Misty. Hope you both rot together. You deserve all the bad karms your gonna receive for all your evil works.

I don't even know Misty, don't know Doc and really don't know you other than the crap you put on the forums. What I do know is that a blind man without a guide dog could see through the manipulative games being played.

Fact: A black convertible pulled out of Doc's driveway loaded down with so much of the man's belongings they were almost falling out of the back. Now, don't know who that car belonged to or what permission they had but its nobody's business. Saw them with my own eyes as I came out of a local business, headed down the highway in the direction of Forsyth (or maybe they were going to a local pawn shop, who knows).

Fact: Doc was dead for many hours before anyone found him, so nobody was walking by at the moment he shot himself as the article by The Reporter seems to allude to.

Fact: This will be the second time The Reporter has gotten directly in the middle of disputes regarding a dead man, the last was over the summer. Must be due to mental illness, who knows.

Fact: Doc is nobody's victim, he's a product of the choices he made throughout his life. Thanks to Doc for serving your country. If he lived fast and partied hard and died a little early, he must have gone out the way he wanted...end of story. Obviously he was smart enough to pit two broads against each other so the joke is on them. He's probably in Heaven right now smokin' a big fatty, playin some guitar and groovin' with the greats.

You will all be glad to know that Misty is moving to Springfield. Hopefully all of this has chased her meth-head ass out of town. Unfortunately no one knows her in Springfield, so she will be free to ruin more men's lives. Wish there was a way we could warn them!

[Lunker hunter]

Reading the post here, If I was his friend like some of you have said and loved the man respected him like you have said,, I think why did you not go and kick her ass ,... slap Doc and tell him what trash she was and stood by him hell or high water, A true friend would have not let him get sucked up by her bull shit again and again, You are the one that let him down,, Not misty, A friend is a friend for ever, Not only when somebody cuse you out and slams the phone down,,That would have pissed me off enough to go stand by him and run her worthless ass of,, I guess some of us have different ideas of friendship and respect,, But if you are my true friend I will go through hell with you to help you out and stand by you all the way,,,

[Answer to Lunker Hunter]

I saw our People's Reporter stand by Doc over and over. She was there for him for months, day and night. She couldn't be there 24/7 as she has a life of her own and her own child to care for. She did go through hell and high water for him. As for kicking Misty's ass, well some people consider the legal consequences of their actions before they take action. I know for a fact that if she would have known he was suicidal again, she would have been there again.

Fact is that Doc is responsible for his own actions. If he's stupid enough to let that disgusting ugly skank Misty, back into his life after all she did to him, then who could really stop him? He did have freedom of will.

Obviously his picker was just as broken as his judgment.

Don't blame those that loved Doc. It's not their fault.

What goes around comes around. Kicking someone's ass is not always the best course of action.

[Answer to Lunker Hunter]

Perhaps they will be warned. Someone should post a picture of her so that we can warn the gentle hearted men she seems to prey upon.

The police in Springfield will be alerted.

[Answer to Nobodys Fooled]

Yeah yeah yeah. Everybody knows that you would say anything you could to disparage the woman who wrote that story. You've done it before.

FACT: That black convertible was there while his daughter was there and after wards only to retrieve the items that were given to the owner of the car by his daughter LONG after Doc died. In fact it was over a week after wards.

Another FACT: The other death you refer to was when the author volunteer to help that man's family. But just typical of you and your posts, you make something ugly out of something that was genuinly heart felt and make people not want to help, because YOU will bash them for it.

Get a life! Get off the woman's back already. What are you jealous? The reporter is just as beautiful inside as she is on the out. Yep, it's jelously, cause she's done nothing wrong to anyone here.

You should be ashamed of yourself.

Now that's a funny piece of fiction...Roflmao!

[Who What Where and When]

Nobody's Fooled: Just where do you get your "facts?"

The reporter's sources come from law enforcement officials and the family of the dearly departed "Doc," as it was told to them by law enforcement.

Were you there?

[Nobodys Fooled]

Good try, not taking that bait. Those that are local know what is truth and what is fabricated or embellished.

[New to Rockaway]

We are considering buying the house that Doc lived in. Anyone have any information about the home?

[Pat from MN]

I really don't know anything about the house but I bet it is haunted. In the middle of the night you'll hear great blues and there may be a martini being poured. The rocking chair on the porch will rock and you may feel a cat or two.
But not to worry, it will all be good.

[Just a Visitor]

I knew Doc for several years. On my visit's I always enjoyed talking to Doc and having an occasional Drink with him. We had many conversations about Life and Music. I never heard Doc say a bad word about anyone, even the woman that emotionally tormented him. I miss our visits and am saddened he is gone. But he is not forgot. Sometimes late at night I also hear him picking the Blues. Thank you Doc for teaching me to enjoy a quality Martini.
