We were quoted in the Sota so we must be getting noticed. I'd like to add to the article to clarify some things both said and unsaid.
"Roberts County Commissioner Chairman Louie Voeltz, who tells us that no action has been discussed at Commissioner meetings"
Do you notice how that is worded? Of course nothing has been "discussed" at CC meetings! It is all done elsewhere!! Like most underhanded dealings, discussions on how to unseat the current Sheriff are best "discussed" in the dark, away from public view.
Commissioner Horton may not be well polished yet, since he is new to this; but give him enough time and I am sure he will become as adept at spinning as the CC Chairman obviously is.
We have heard that Sheriff Owen's "lack of cooperation" is reason enough for this newest dismissal attempt. Could it be possible that our esteemed commissioners want to "eavesdrop" so much that they would insist on retaining an employee let go by Vince to keep their channel of communication open?
I would also point out that the very anonymity of this blog is what makes it unique and gets the 'grassroots movement' going. When all is said and done, the comments read and digested, most of us can see what is true and what is not. After all, our commissioners might sign their names to the monthly meeting minutes, but we all know that what is published is a far cry from what was said or done at those meetings don't we.
I want to add that I admire the Sota for reporting news and not making news. Thanks for checking into this heinous attempt to unseat the best Sheriff that Roberts County has had in a long, long time.
