Roy King Arrested

-

A local fire chief has been put behind bars accused of embezzlement. Rock Hill Fire Chief, William Leeroy King II was taken into custody by the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation, Dec. 20 at 7:30 p.m. King is charged with embezzlement involving county funds. King made his initial appearance Thursday morning and bond was set at $25,000. Authorities say king was issued a fleet card for fuel in which he is accused of using to fuel his personal vehicle. MBI believes King’s activity has been ongoing for the last year. You all may remember Roy King, a former member of the Lumberton Volunteer Fire Department, from the incident that happened here in Lumberton. King was charged with impersonating a police officer and was identified by a Lumberton resident, but was freed after Officer Wilczek went and obtained paperwork to help prove his innocence. King stated that he would file a law suit against the City of Lumberton to restore his good reputation.

The Mississippi State Auditor’s office and the Lamar County Sheriff’s Office both helped in the investigation. Authorities say more charges could be brought against him.

    Only in Lumberton could a man that look like this get away with impersonating a police officer. Did he have on the LPD uniform: tight wrangler jeans and a gun rack in the truck?

    Let's not judge him too harshly because everyone that goes to jail is not guilty.

    They should be checking on how he was working, with two fire departments, when he is drawing 100% disability from Social Security.

    No, I think that when the MS Bureau of Investigation gets involved, there IS something to it. The State doesn't just randomly go around arresting people without a good case against that person. We're not talking about LPD anymore... this is the State of MS on this case...

    For a man who wanted to reinstate his good reputation, he's sure going about it the wrong way.

FY Budget 2015: Pills and Potions

-

I called this post the pills and potions edition because after looking at the budget that was presented; it's obvious this board is overdosing on something. I can't tell where any real cuts were made to the budget; it seems the same. The fact that the board paid Richard Rose $1, 600 to prepare this budget is a joke. Why do we have a city clerk if she cannot prepare a budget? What is she doing all day other than reading the Lumberton Informer or thinking of her next lie? The board claimed that Richard Rose was doing this out of the goodness of his heart, that he knew the City of Lumberton was not in a position to pay him. So, rather than charging the normal going rate for an embattled city manager that was allegedly terminated for not reporting to work and other matters; Rose decided he will charge the fiscally challenged City of Lumberton a mere $1,600 and a motorcycle. Now, keep in mind, the board never voted to hire Richard Rose but somehow, he received a check and a moto

Kim Rogers: A Phenomenal Woman

I've always said that I don't offer balance throughout this blog. It seems that most of the focus is placed on the bad things or more gossipy topics, but I think today is a good day to give credit where credit is due. I know she don't do what she do for attention or accolades but I would like to tip my hat to Mrs. Kim Rogers, founder of the KeKe B Foundation. Kim, like many other women of our community, is a testament to the power of hop, courage and resilience of a loving mother. I don't know how she does it but she has chosen to take a stand when others would have buckled under pressure. Her dedication and courage has touched so many people in so many ways. The work she's doing through the KeKe B Foundation will be a beacon for many generations to come and the she many never realize the impact her courage has made in the lives of others. But despite it all, she is still pressing forward. Kim does not want another parent to experience what she had to experience

Stealing Elections: Lumberton Style

Last night when I went to the Ben Barrett Voting Center to watch the counting of the vote, I entered the building about 10 minutes before the polls closed and the picture above is what I saw. Throughout the day, many people expressed their concerns that the poll workers didn't match the demographics of the City of Lumberton. I shrugged it off after someone texted me, assuring me that the election was going to be fair. Well, that was not the case. Later in the day, a voter came to me with evidence that the votes had been compromised. They gave me two torn affidavit ballots that were torn up and thrown in the trash in the women's restroom at the voting center. Interesting. There was another person that came to me about the conversation they overheard between Cora Rogers and her mother, Voncile Richardson. It seems that Ms. Voncile wanted to cast a vote for me but her daughter, Cora Rogers, instructed her to mark the ballot for Kent Crider. Interesting. Last
