Stimulate This!!!!!

Click on your state to see some of the projects included in this bill.I found it to be very interesting and informative. Also you can see that a lot of cities & towns are not listed. I wonder if the leaders of the missing cities and towns are just "not on the ball" so to speak and did not submit a wish list?

This is were in Sept. 07 were I said the deputies should not have been fired.
http://www.topix.net/forum/city/kingsland-ga/TQDCC9D5M1H9CI04H

And here are the links to the posts on the 667,000.

http://www.topix.net/forum/city/kingsland-ga/T25113ADCHUTV0EP6/p2

And of course here is the one that you lied on when you said if people didn't want you on Topix, you would leave, But you lied and never left.

http://www.topix.net/forum/city/kingsland-ga/TCPQLC3A0GLOJHB5S

Have you ever figured out why you couldn't get me kicked off Topix.

Lord knows you tried, but failed. Just like everything else you have done.

Good luck Tripp with your schooling and your life.

Just For You Tripp!!!

Tripp writes this on topix:

Here are the questions verbatim:O.K Rick, lets see.

Prove Perry innocent.

Prove the accident a murder.

Prove the $660,000 swindle.

Prove that Bill framed Perry.

Prove that Bill covered for his cousin.

Prove this stuff Rick.

We want proof.
You said you can, so do it. If you cant, then you are guilty of spewing false rumors, gossip, and slander. Prove it now sir. If this stuff involved me, I would take your ass to court. The ones that it does involve laugh it off because they know it is total BS. You're such a joke.
Fri Jan 09, 02:50:00 PM EST
This is a post directly from your blog Rick. This is what we want proof of, and what you said you could prove. Well, I'll ask for the hundredth time. Where is the proof? And yes I did post that one on your blog. The rest have my name by them.

My response

OK here we go again.

1. Prove the accident a murder.
2. Prove that Bill covered for his cousin.
Same question prove one you prove the other obviously.
I am assuming you are asking about Racheyl Brinson's murder, not accident. Tripp, how many times has a women who was going to leave her husband one day, and the next day she ends up dead? How many times has law enforcement questioned the only witness over the phone? Yes that is right he never had a face to face interview with law enforcement. Tripp, how many does law enforcement not collect the weapon involved in the murder? Yes, Bill Smith and Bundy gave Steve the gun that night.

Now a top investigation agency from Pennsylvania concluded this was no accident. Many people seen the report before that agency ask me to take it down. It said that Steve was having an affair with a now elected official here in Camden County. That affair is why Racheyl was leaving Steve. Anyone who would like to see the report who has not can email me, and I will email it back to you.

Why did Steve, when he arrived back at his dad's home tell his dad "I f#%ked up!"?

Steve hasn't answered these questions, Can you?

Here is a link to a former school teachers statement.
http://schoolpolice.blogspot.com/search/label/Racheyl%20Brinson

None of this is slander because I got it all out of open records, Of much of the open records were redacted, and when Bill was asked why they were redacted his said because it made Steve look guilty. But as soon as Sheriff Gregory gets the office in order, I will be getting the unedited versions.

3. Prove that Bill framed Perry.
4. Prove Perry innocent.

I will not rehash this with you, but I will ask if Bundy was so sure of his case, Why didn't he meet with me in a public meeting. He was ready to meet with me in private remember or a public place with just me. I wanted to meet him with many people present so they could ask questions also and then you could here too. If I would have met with him in private with no one else you would have called me a liar with anything I reported back on. Bundy wouldn't do it, because he knows he framed him. No law enforcement officer will tell that taking a single picture to a witness is proper procedure. Oh and I might add that witness was the only one that said it was Dennis and she only said that because Jane Beaver told her he did it. And yes Jane Beaver got $12,000 for that. Corky also is a liar and he got $12,000 to keep his mouth shut. Oh did I forget that this witness got such a good look at the shooter lying on her back in the church. Yes she passed out, and still was able to get a good look. thanks Jane. Besides this one witness what other evidence did they have? None you read the complete transcript, or so you say, so tell me what other evidence did they have? Any evidence from the scene?

The defense had two witnesses that said Donnie did, the prosecution says they were just drug addicts who didn't know what they were talking about. Yet that same prosecutor gave Donnie, a known drug addict himself he even admitted that on the stand, immunity. Then the prosecution states that Donnie couldn't have done it because he was at work that day. But if you read the transcript and do the math with the time card, the time card will tell you he was off that day. Here is the link: http://schoolpolice.blogspot.com/search/label/Donnie%27s%20Testimony

And then to top it off the immunity agreement states that Donnie was at the church that night. I am in the process of trying to get that agreement from the DA's office. I my first request I was told:

Dear Mr. Rogers:

I am in receipt of your Open Records Request dated January 12, 2009. At this time, I am not aware if the information you requested exists. The file you requested is archived in another county in the circuit and the Assistant District Attorney who handled the case is now retired. I will have someone from my office research the matter and contact you and let you know what is found. At that time you will also be notified as to what the charges will be for research and copying.

Sincerely,
April W. Howard
Legal Secretary
District Attorney's Office
Camden County, Georgia

Amazing isn't it that not only is all the evidence in this case missing, but the agreement as well. Oh did I forget to tell that DNA cleared Dennis.
But I am having the DA to look a little harder for it no matter what cost, as long as it not a ridiculous amount like smith would always want to charge me for. I will post it as soon as I get it.

4. Prove the $660,000 swindle.

I have called Lowndes County and talked to the NEW sheriff there. Sheriff Prine said that he just took office and it was not very organized. Now I don't know if they had problems like us, and their old Sheriff was crooked as well, I hope not. But Sheriff Prine said that he would look for the paper work were Lowndes was going to give us the money and 4 cars. I will also be asking Sheriff Gregory for the same thing once this office is organized. It shouldn't be much longer, but I am sure Sheriff Gregory won't be able to find it, that is why I asked Lowndes County.

So lets talk about why Lowndes would give us this money. If you remember the only joint task force they had was Operation Blue Lightening, in which the Sheriff himself said they only recovered about $250,000 in cash and assets. Yet Lowndes was giving us much more that. Yes it is less than the $667,000 I reported, that is because the Feds keep a portion of it. That is why they call it Shared Assets, because the Feds share it with us. You can look it up in the Guide to Shared Assets in the links section of this blog.

When or if these documents are found I will post it. I can't imagine both agencies would not have kept a record of this. But anything is possible, as I was told for two years to give it up Bill Smith would win again with 98% of the vote, you even told me that a couple of times Tripp.

And just for the record I never said that a concrete worker was the one that told me this, I said a construction worker. Someone else said they heard it from a concrete worker. Look it up on Topix. I can tell that the construction worker was working with the Barber crew, but I can't say that the Barber's said it.

So out of the hundreds of things I have said these are the only three things you have. What about Godley? Walker? Chua on the Internet? Sears? Did I lie about all of them?

For someone who thinks I am a joke, you are taking this pretty seriously.
But at least we can agree, if someone was saying that to me, I would take them to court also. It would matter if i didn't get a dime as long as it cleared my name.

So I will asked you this

Can Steve prove he didn't KILL his wife? Because that is what he would have to prove in court.

Can Bundy and Smith Prove they didn't frame Perry? That is what they would have to prove.

And on the $667,000 can you prove I am lying? Who would you call to testify against me?

BILL SMITH A PROVEN LIAR.

The man who repeated said he got permission to use the drug money for Celebrate Recovery, yet the Justice Department and his one office had know record of such permission.

And lastly,
You say you can't believe a suggested you are on drugs again, yet you have no problem telling others that I am on drugs. Tripp your the joke. You and your side kick Ray (who wants to remain anoy) sit back and tell lies about me and called me every name in the book. See I posted all of this without one swear word, can you do that.


Ray,
If I got a ticket and I am in a world of crap, how about sending me a coping of that ticket. You can get it from the court house under the open records request. It happened on 1/18/09. That will make it easier for you to find.


No I am not going to quit what I do. I will continue to expose those who are elected to serve and help bring justice to those wrongfully accused.

Questions Answered By Sheriff

These are the 5 questions Tripp and his anoy buddies wanted answered.



I would like some answers Rick, you always know how to break the TRUTH to the public,

1. Has Sheriff Gregory hired back the deputies that were fired for the chase that excessive force was used in the multi county chase.

2. Has he also hired a pawn broker from a Kingsland pawn shop that is drawing a check from Black Water on workmans comp. and working under the table at the pawn shop, as a part-time deputy.

3. Has Tommy hired the Deputy back that took the inmates illegally to South Carolina per the GBI investigation to fix Big Willies house.

4. Has Tommy paid a higher salary to the St.Marys Officers that were hired in as Deputies above the salary of Deputies with years of seniority.

5. Did Tommy fire people and hire them back at a much cheaper pay-rate telling them that's what he had to do to be legal. But later just cut other officers pay and strip their rank. Tell us which method is the proper way of screwing over long time dedicated employees.



Sheriff Gregory explains a couple of these questions in Fridays paper(1/30/09.


From the T&G:
CCSO staffing profile shifts
By Emily Goodson

Sheriff Tommy Gregory has made dramatic changes to his department's staffing profile within his first month in office.
5. Did Tommy fire people and hire them back at a much cheaper pay-rate telling them that's what he had to do to be legal. But later just cut other officers pay and strip their rank. Tell us which method is the proper way of screwing over long time dedicated employees.



Twenty-seven Camden County Sheriff's Office (CCSO) staff members were relieved of duty Jan. 4, though several of those have been hired back at lower rates. Other hires have been made to help save money on salaries and benefits in a time when budgets are tight throughout Camden County.

Jim Proctor, Faye Chancey and Tim Simpson, three of the 27 deputies who were let go when Gregory took office, re-applied for jobs at the sheriff's office and were rehired earlier this month at lower pay rates than they had previously, Gregory said.
4. Has Tommy paid a higher salary to the St.Marys Officers that were hired in as Deputies above the salary of Deputies with years of seniority.
Gregory also hired several part-time deputies to help fill open patrol slots, he said. Some of those deputies received a slightly higher hourly rate than full-time deputies, but part-timers do not receive benefits, Gregory said.
"It's a way for me to cut down on overtime," he said.
1. Has Sheriff Gregory hired back the deputies that were fired for the chase that excessive force was used in the multi county chase.
In addition, two deputies terminated from the department in 2006 are now back on the road. Albert Bannon Crosby serves as a full-time patrol deputy, while Richard Sean Billington now works as a part-time deputy.
Former sheriff Bill Smith fired Crosby and Billington on March 1, 2006 after a CCSO internal investigation found that both deputies violated the department's pursuit and use of force policies during and after a high-speed chase involving a North Carolina man.
The chase began on a Camden County stretch of Interstate 95 after Crosby clocked Irwin Kirk Griffen, of Cary, N.C., traveling 94 mph in a 70 mph zone. Griffen's escape attempt lasted almost an hour and covered three southeast Georgia counties.
Police officers finally stopped Griffen's vehicle in Nahunta using stop sticks, which are designed to flatten a car's tires. Video footage recorded on a patrol car camera shows a Brantley County deputy punching Griffen in the head and shoulders and two Camden County deputies kneeing Griffen in the back and spraying him with pepper spray.
Gregory said that the methods used to subdue Griffen were standard moves taught by law enforcement academies.
"It wasn't excessive force," he said.
Smith hired Billington back in early 2007, but Crosby's return to the department came just this year. Gregory said that Crosby is still on probation with the Georgia Peace Officer Standards and Training Council (POST) for violation of department policy.
Ryan Powell, POST public information officer, confirmed Wednesday that Crosby's probation extends until May 4. POST administrators will monitor Crosby until that time, and any further violations may instigate a review of his certification, Powell said.
Gregory said that Crosby serves as a fully certified deputy.
"He's got full arrest powers," Gregory said.


Now, for some reason you wanted me to answer these questions that should have been directed to the Sheriff. I have never asked you questions about Bill Smith, I always asked question to the person that did the action. But I will play your silly games. Here are my answers to your questions....
1. Has Sheriff Gregory hired back the deputies that were fired for the chase that excessive force was used in the multi county chase.
I guess you didn't do your homework, as I was against the firing of these two from the beginning. I said that if I was chasing this guy, I would have probably done the same thing. Anyone that leads the cops on a three county chase is capable of anything. I was against hiring one back but not the other as it would result in a lawsuit. AND WHAT HAPPENED?

Don't believe me, look it up. It's on Topix and this blog.

2. Has he also hired a pawn broker from a Kingsland pawn shop that is drawing a check from Black Water on workmans comp. and working under the table at the pawn shop, as a part-time deputy.

I have no idea who you are talking about. Why not just tell us his name?
I am sure you know who they are talking about Tripp, as you know everything, so just tell us his name.

3. Has Tommy hired the Deputy back that took the inmates illegally to South Carolina per the GBI investigation to fix Big Willies house.

Is this a problem? Why not hire a deputy that tells the truth? This deputy told the FEDS the truth, I would have hired him to. It's not about what they have done wrong, it's about telling the truth when they are caught.

4. Has Tommy paid a higher salary to the St.Marys Officers that were hired in as Deputies above the salary of Deputies with years of seniority.

Does time as a cop elsewhere count? I know in my jobs, sometimes I started with more pay than some others with more years, but I had more experience than them. This happens in every line of work, and is really a stupid question.

5. Did Tommy fire people and hire them back at a much cheaper pay-rate telling them that's what he had to do to be legal. But later just cut other officers pay and strip their rank. Tell us which method is the proper way of screwing over long time dedicated employees.

Simple answer is yes. And those who that happened to got what they deserved, Iam sure. If you don't think so, then tell us who was done wrong!!! He was elected Sheriff to try and save the taxpayers money, not to be a Smith Jr. So I am sorry anoy if you lost your job, or got your rank stripped or your pay cut, but you probably got much more than other deputies that have been there a lot longer than you under Smith.

It nice to see that those who have been stuck in the jail for years with the promise of going to patrol school are finally getting that chance.

CAN'T WAIT TO SEE MARY ANN SEAMENS AND JUDY GODLEY'S LETTER TO THE EDITOR PRAISING THE NEW SHERIFF FOR BRINGING US GOOD NEWS. WE HAVEN'T HAD THAT FOR A WHILE.
