		<description>Not much news about this the past week. Wonder what&#039;s going on? 

Everybody, let&#039;s keep this alive, at least on this website. No one has been arrested yet nor penalized beyond stepping down from a position they were reportedly not supposed to be in in the first place. Let&#039;s make this known to both Democratic and Republic organizations in the area and the papers that we want to know what&#039;s going on. We do not want quiet leaders. Let us know, if they can or can&#039;t comment, what&#039;s going on with this affair and that all guilty must answer and at least change their actions in their respective job if they need to. Let our county political leaders know we will not vote them in if they do not do their jobs properly.

		<description>According to a very reliable source, the town lawyer got the ones involved with 17-year-old&#039;s death out of trouble. It is sad about the corruption in this town by some of those in positions to protect the citizens, but this has gone on for decades. I had an uncle die in jail under mysterious circumstances in the &#039;70s and no one answered for that. I am praying for all who had a hand in what&#039;s gone on in this area for so long to finally answer for their wrong-doings. It will take an act of god and I&#039;m praying for it.</description>

		<description>Overcash, I spoke with her yesterday and all is well with the FBI. They are back home getting all the facts in order. What&#039;s taking so long? There is more stuff than they ever imagined. Poor Hodge, how do you know what to try and cover up because there is so much to do. I do hope that the death of the 17 year old comes up, someone needs to be held accountable.</description>

		<description>This one is from the heart.  If the accused and his cohorts were not so predictable, my advice to Ms. Bullard and others would be to take cover.  But because they are easy to read, Camp Bullard has a map of what their moves and actions will be.  She has been on the inside with these people for years and would know how they work.  With that kind of insight, if I were the accused, I don&#039;t think I would be strutting the streets like some big cock....i mean rooster.  The accused is making threats, using intimidation tactics, fabricating information, and making accusations to take the heat off themselves.  My guess is that they think they are smarter than the FBI and not beholden to any law, except their own.  If there is one thing my grandpa told me that has held true most of my life, is that you don&#039;t pull on the mask of the Lone Ranger and don&#039;t mess with Jim.  However in this case, you don&#039;t mess with Barbara.</description>

		<description>Hwy 9 Traveler:

Perhaps they know what I have thoght all along and am beginning to believe more and more. Maybe someone will get repurcussions for this. Maybe they will have to pay a fine or stay out of office or get a little time in prison. However, this is how our country runs from D.C. to small towns. Outside of tribal governments, it is the way of the world. People on top mostly stay on top and the rest work for them or against them, and those against end up in bad situations. Sure, we have the freedom to report, talk about, even go to the White House and protest. BUT how often do things really change? It&#039;s very seldom. Mostly anyone who tries to really buck the system ends up on some type of proverbial cross or dead. Just sitting here, I can list Jesus Christ, not to mention the tens of thousands of his peers ending up on crosses, Martin L. King Jr., J.F. Kennedy, Abraham Lincoln, and it goes on and on. 

As I&#039;ve stated, I will be leaving this area. I know when to turn tail and run and it&#039;s long overdue. I do, once again, wish Bullard the best because she will need it. The people at the top of the food chain around here do not play around. There is something about those in power positions around here that they know or do that keeps them genuinely unafraid of answering for anything. I can only imagine how high up it goes. So many are afraid to say or do anything because it is like trying to report to the devil about his demons misbehaving. Careful who you report to and who you trust. There&#039;s just something about this area, Cheraw specifically.</description>

		<description>Everything you have said is spot on. It seems that the people in this community that could make a difference don&#039;t really care because they are not affected. Prominent, educated citizens of this town choose to turn    a blind eye because, afterall, the little people probably deserve the treatment anyway. If one of us gets in trouble, we have the connection and the money to get out of it so why would we want this system to change. What a shame! I like most have just read and don&#039;t know the real truth but if half of what has been written is true, why would these same prominent citizens still continue to associate with Hodge? Are they that confident that he is innocent or are they trying to help cover their wrongdoings as well.</description>

		<description>Sorry about the confusion with Hodge&#039;s office, did not know it was rented to the state. As for Bullard and SLED, I can sympathize. I don&#039;t know what it was or is with them but I was told per phone conversation by officer in Columbia that SLED was there to assist law enforcement. They are law enforcement so I guess I understand but it still isn&#039;t right. To my knowledge, nothing was done about Cheraw PD because mostly the same ones doing what they lock other people up for are still there, especially &quot;King Pin&quot; himself. Regardless of what I did in my past I never did use law enforcement to my benefit by partying with them and turning people up. I almost got killed and ended up in Wallace overlooking a bridge and suicidal. I have no knowledge of how I got there but I was told that certain people wanted me out of the picture permanently and some of those were in uniform. 

Now I know I am correct when I say that many people have complained about, and with legitimate reasons, CPD. I know their jobs are difficult, but some within actions are inexcuable not to mention criminal. DOES ANYONE REMEMBER OR CARE ABOUT THE 17 YEAR OLD WHO DIED IN JAIL? THE SHEFFIELD MAN WAS SHOT HOW MANY TIMES IN THE BACK BUT THE OFFICER IS FOUND NOT GUILTY? I&#039;m sure there&#039;s been so much more. I PRAY THE FBI IS INVESTIGATING THEM WHILE THEY ARE HERE. 

People are speaking up about CPD and others due to this investigation because, like stated above, they are all connected and for years there&#039;s been little anyone could do about them. In my opinion, based on what I have read in the news, this entire state needs cleaning up politically, top (Columbia) to bottom (areas like the Pee Dee). And if the &quot;Revenge Party&quot; is going to try anything else as far as I&#039;m concerned, go ahead. My hands aren&#039;t dirtied by anything now, haven&#039;t been for 8 years, and I won&#039;t be around here much longer, god willing. I&#039;ve been slandered, threatened, warned, all but incarcerated or killed, and I refuse to be afraid of anyone in any way concerning this crap any longer.

I wonder if the restaurant across from Cheraw Police Dept. still has stuff moving out of its back doors? Maybe CPD just did&#039;nt know or have enough proof but maybe it&#039;s stopped now. 

And as far as Hodge goes, there must be something or the FBI wouldn&#039;t be here. If he was pulling stuff like the rest stop area, then I hope he goes to jail for it because anyone else would have. I wil be surprised if anything is done though. Lack of paperwork is hard to get by and this political machine goes all the way to the top and bottom, with all the informants and snitches around. All that power and money and still resorting to mob-like tactics, sex in bathrooms, and behaving worse than animals. But then again, power most oftens corrupts, doesn&#039;t it? Too bad you all forgot your history lessons in school because you would have realized that what comes around goes around and that if presidents and emperors have fallen, then surely you will. If nothing else, one will drive themselves insane worrying about being caught and it takes a lot of work to cover one&#039;s tracks when the dirt just keeps getting kicked up with so many playing around in it.</description>

		<description>Heard from a friend that Finch was given another chance by the FBI to cooperate with their investigation. They know as most of the insiders know that she is in just as deep as Hodge. She handled most of the accounting for the different programs the scams came from. She better be careful, Hodge will let her take the fall for him. I wonder if her second chance with the FBI had anything to do with her resigning from the board of Mercy Ministries.</description>

		<description>to Butler In The Palace:

You assume that the former Solicitor is innocent.  Do you really think that the FBI would have wasted their time assembling paperwork and investigating the matter if they didn&#039;t see something?  As for the &quot;accusers&quot;, once the FBI is involved, relationships or not, the whole dynamic changes.  Another thing, the reason you see former Solicitor/Mercy Ministries/Cheraw Police Department/Politicians start to surface once this thing broke loose is that they are all intertwined with one another.  There are common denominators involved.  Now you are starting to see the former Solicitor, Mercy Ministry, politicians, law enforcement and others squirm because they can no longer dictate whom and what happens next.  Their cowardly attempt to point the finger at others, fabricate and suddenly discover items, meet secretly, intimidate, spread their propaganda, call for press releases and whatever else they have up their sleeves is comical.  We have already seen them use their best tactics to try and damage Mrs. Bullard&#039;s reputation, now they have sent a message that they are going after Mr. Michael and Mrs. Finch next, so we&#039;ll see what surfaces in the coming days.  One thing remains solid and steadfast, and that is the FBI.  They will not be fooled nor manipulated, so a message from the lowly places of common sense to former Solicitor, Mercy Ministries, politicians, local law enforcement.. don&#039;t tease the &quot;accusers&quot;, they may just have more stamina that you.</description>
