Haven't heard anything. What happened?

[Observer]

I believe he was given a ride with jewelry on his wrists.

[Well then]

What dont you tell us who and where and stop beating around the bush. Either you know or dont.

[not quite correct]

the most currently elected county commissioner who owns a Troy fast food (KB)

[Unbelievable]

Was he arrested? What for?

[HP Resident]

hmmm....if you read the post titled "Beel-Potts" or something like that, it refers to the person by name and what he was allegedly arrested for. I'd still like to hear the whole story. Interesting.

[Unbelievable]

Does anyone know where and when this happened?

[Lincoln County Watcher]

Typical LC C***! No one has ANY real evidence about this situation. "Oh I heard" or "Did you hear"Until the person is convicted by a jury of his or her peers, may I suggest this is only speculation. Again, typical of this two-bit community that has no real entertainment. Where were the news cameras? 5, 4 and 2?

Happened in Troy this afternoon. He got pulled over and hauled in.

And you obtained this information how?

[simple man]

i dont know why. but i did drive by and seen the cuffs going on and it was the "dope unit" that was there...about 1:10 1:20 or so and it was at the cars wash on Cherry street....

[Listen]

Sounds like KFAV is going to be talking about this in a few minutes. They just said something about a "Troy City Official" being arrested.

[Listen]

OK. They didn't give his name, but said that he was a Lincoln County Commissioner and was arrested for trying to buy drugs from an undercover cop. Was arrested and taken to Warren County since he works for Lincoln County.

Sad for his family.

[For Gods Sake]

Are you talking about the guy named Matt Bass? Damn, just put his name in the post if your going to talk about him in the the open. So he is a county commissioner? Not everyone knows all these elected people on a first name basis.

[Whhhhaaaatt]

Say it isnt so. who would have thought Matt Bass would be using drugs. I hadnt a clue.

[shilla]

has anyone ever heard of innocent until proven guilty? there hasnt been official release yet guys, and i know matt PERSONALLY. there are different sides to every story, but i can assure you all matt is no coke head or anything like that.

Why is it that the "vultures come to circle" whenever ANYTHING happens???

[what a shame]

This doesn't surprise me. He looks stoned most of the time. He and his family are great people, but this is a concern to me especially since he is an elected official. Those people are not above the law either.
