If Mr. Benston was such a gentleman why didn't he stand up challenge the corruption of the County Commissioners instead of sitting in the back of the courtroom between Herman Dunn and Bob Meeker while they appointed his hatchet man Storms? And yes please check into Billy Ward and find out just how much of a hero he is and what he took for the citizens of NC as a trooper. It went something like this: when he made that simple traffic stop that turn out to him chasing a crook into a building and the crook turning around and beating him in the head with a hammer and him spending the next month in a comma barely alive... yea let check into him you might just find out who would be the best for Bladen County.
