Too many people know too much on some of those in law enforcement. A lot of the lower level dealers become informants and receive more protection than innocent people do. One pretty big dealer was arrested a few years back but chose to do the time because when he got out he was paid a lot of money by bigger fish than he. A particular drug user, who is now in prison, got away with so much and her name was constantly in the papers because she was partying with some on CPD. Look at what happened with the chop-shop deal. Just read Ronnie Leviner’s post. Cheraw Police Dept. can’t really do anything but arrest lower-levels because they are basically owned by the big-time dealers. And with the meth problem around here you would think there would be many arrests for that. How often do you see any arrests for it? I’ll say again this is all part of a much bigger machine and we would be very surprised to know who is at the top and shifting all the gears. I know with my situation it’s best just to leave and be done with it all because Hodge is, in my opinion, very low on the rung. It is not going to be a matter of him as the proverbial head of the snake. I really do believe he is a low-level player in all of this. So many see him as the puppet master but if they look a lot closer they will see that this really isn’t so. We need an act of God because even the FBI isn’t big enough to handle this.

1st none I agree. Week after week you see in the papers where low level drug users and street dealers have been arrested. But you never, ever see the big men (or women) who handle the financing, importing, distribution and so forth get arrested. You would think over decades law enforcement could get some of these low level people to rat out the big men/women, so it at least appears they aren’t trying.

SAY WHAT, I’m praying and trying to keep the faith, but it seems to me that politicos in Columbia and probably Washington have known about the goings-on in this area for quite some time. I said it before and I’ll say it again, I believe the guilty ones in this town, officials or their foot soldiers in the police dept. and on the street are part of a much larger monster than what we can imagine. Maybe 1 or a few will go down, but this is so far-reaching and deep that only an act of God could destroy it. I’m thinking mafia or some sort of secret organization, like Sanford’s C Street family, is at play. Outside of Mercy M. and Jay Hodge, all the others are busy at work as usual and don’t appear worried to me. Just something about this area, specifically Cheraw.

I hope the FBI digs up all the dirt there is in Chesterfield County, but in my opinion they won’t even look at much of what has been alleged on this site. I doubt they will go beyond looking at the Solicitors office and Mercy. I think most of the statements that “the FBI will get so and so” is just wishful thinking.

1st none surprised, I think that’s why the FBI are taking so long to move. There is so much corruption that they have found through their interviews that they have to make sure how to proceed. Remeber, when they come, they’re coming for people who were supposed to be representing the good of the community. Town officials,ex- solicitor, cops, judges. Kinda sad once you think about it.

I will be very surprised if something on police department did not come up while they were investigating Hodge. He couldn’t have had such control if he didn’t have foot soldiers to do his bidding. Especially the cops at the top.

To all concerned, don’t worry, Hodge is cooked like crack. What we need to focus on now is the rest of the scum in this town. Personally, I don’t know anything on the corruption with the police but I do have some information on our mayor (Hunter) and his two accomplices Hodge and Myrteen Lee. The lady from the nursing home that Hunter said he was helping out, he just sold that house for a $25,000 profit. Now I know he says that “that’s the business he’s in” but it shouldn’t be to take advantage of someone in a nursing home. I’ll give him a pass because he certainly isn’t smart enough to make this scam on his on, Lee and Hodge needed a front guy or possibly a fall guy, they’re professional at this. He’s just stupid enough to fall right in line. I guess that’s why Lee had enough money to clean up her building mess here in town and why Hunter defended her so at the council meetings and in the Link.

There sure is a lot of concern by a “select few” over what people are saying here on these posts. From what I understand, FITS can only give out anyone’s web info. and address from here if a threat is made. I would believe at this point that no one has made that mistake. And you can bank on the fact that anything I’ve put on here has paperwork support and I can swear to it all being fact in a courtroom. I hope they clean up the whole town. I just wish I could hear or read that elusive radio transcript. Could FITS get a copy of the transcript?

Say What, I agree with you, sounds like another one of those messages from the accused that crosses the line and then backs up just enough to make it defendable. Remove the remark in the radio interview of the Cheraw mayor, where he made the statement about FBI tracking the people on this website? Another scare tactic used by this powerful group of accused. But be not swayed, because the people they are trying to intimidate this time are not going to run and hide. I had a conversation a few days ago with a person who is near the fringes of this firestorm and after that discussion, I wouldn’t underestimate Ms. Bullard and friends at all. Too bad Linda Carter played Wonder Woman, cause Ms. Bullard could steal the show. Bad guys beware.

Certainly not meant to be. Everyone is responsible for their own actions in everything they do. Just be careful what you say and how you say it. This is a written public forum. That’s all. I’m not Law or Lawyer. Just a working guy.
