The Dispatch story about the judgment against the county supervisors is sad in a pathetic sort of way. What does it take for them to pay what they owe? The interest (so far, $33,230.52 in prejudgment interest) is adding up and they have zero chance of taking this all the way to the state Supreme Court. Just ain't gonna happen, so why not write the checks?

This is about usual for local politicians;

Judge levels $150,000 judgment against Brooks, ex-Lowndes supervisors

Quote

At the time, supervisors ordered the company not to pay the state, maintaining they had not acted illegally, according to Brooks, sparking the civil lawsuit by USF&G in 2007.


I only wish Brooks and Co., and every local politician who misappropriates public money, were held personally liable for every cent of that money. If average people did this to their employers, they'd be doing jail time for embezzlement, theft and fraud.

person out via Facebook and Twitter, you can be prosecuted for bullying
the individual."

Quote in the Commercial Dispatch newspaper in Columbus, MS., from a supporter of Columbus police Chief Selvain McQueen, on the chief's claim that he can arrest and prosecute people for cursing someone on the Internet.

Thom, was it Brooks wife that got in trouble a few years ago when she worked at a bank and stole several thousand $$$$ from some elderly lady? They slapped her on the hand and nothing happened to her that I know of.

Sorry for the errors, need new glasses and most things are a blur.
