Byrd-Sighting

-

I received several e-mails from individuals claiming that they say Timothy Ryan Byrd at the Lumberton Police Department this weekend. Why am I not surprised? If the e-mails are true there will be a special call meeting held soon to put him back on the City of Lumberton's payroll. There has been a lot of good officers terminated from the Lummberton Police Department and they were terminated for political reasons. But almost every officer that was terminated has found other employment in the field of law enforcement because they have their certification is in tact and despite the smear tactics, they're actually good officers. Everyone from C.Fortenberry to J. Messer are still law enforcement officers depsite the Lumberton Board of Aldermen's attempt to destory their careers. So, be on the look out for a special call meeting soon because they're going to try and sneak this one in without the citizens knowing. But if and when they hire him again, at least I will have the opportunity to file a freedom of information request to get a copy of the letter detailing the reason(s) why he lost his certification. For some reason, the other officers that left the City of Lumberton has remained in the field of law enforcemnt, but Byrd is still circling around Lumberton like a buzzard because it's obvious that he can't get hired by any other law enforcement agency except Lumberton.

    Is it against your rules Jonathan for him to visit friends? You got what you wanted he no longer works for LPD but you are still not happy are you,just can't let it go can you. That is because you are not happy unless you are stirring crap as usual.

    They're not my rules, but if he's visiting friends on the LPD, then all I've got to say. . Byrds of a feather. . And no I haven't gotten what I wanted. . yet. . If Byrd is hanging around city hall, his "friends" are plotting to get him back on the payroll. . and if that's considered stirring up crap, then I will stir on and just as I said, just wait and see that his name will appear on the agenda soon. . Maybe I should have titled the post Byrd Droppings instead of Byrd Sighting.

FY Budget 2015: Pills and Potions

-
Image
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 ...
