Ron Hewett resigns as Brunswick County Sheriff

Skulldrag, Blah blah words words, I'm not a crack. Are you? And do you know all the officers? The gossip session, that I'm talking about is longer than a lunch break. Sorry to bust your bubble! I have seen law-en-forcment, from the training side, and I saw enough that I didn't want any part of it. By the way I'm not a crack head just because I live in Longwood, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!

Remember that adage "People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones." LOL Sounds like "no one's been watching the store." Ron couldn't clean up all the crime in BC by himself you know. At least when he had those deputies painting signs, laying stones, watching his driveway be poured, etc. they were doing something. I've called 911 to report suspicious activity at an intersection known for drug traffic. A deputy was sent, and guess what? She never got out of her car. She just sat there and watched until the vehicle in question pulled off. I was on the phone with a neighbor, while another one watched from the her front yard. We all saw it. I've called for law enforcement before 911 came in existence and had one of the deputies who signed the famous manifesto respond, not once, but several times with similar results, except he'd get out, shoot the breeze a little, pat the offenders on the back (not pat them down) and drive off. The same community took matters in their own hands and put a stop to it. Does any of this sound familiar BC. Sounds to me like at least a few of them did something to earn their paycheck when Hewett put them to work on his campaign signs and his driveway. You know there's more than one way to steal from the county. What they've done is not called embezzelment. It's called SLOTH. And it is one of the seven DEADLY SINS. So you know what I think? I think the deputies have a higher judge to answer to than Ron Hewett, the county commissioners, or Rex Gore.

Is there not an issue of out-of-wedlock children here?

Not ALL his kids are grown!

Thank you very much! THAT was perfectly stated. People like you have helped our family get through this ordeal along with Divine Intervention.I am now beginning to believe that JUSTICE DOES PREVAIL! May GOD bless you and your family forever. Tanya

Thank you for your comments. They are thoughtful and very kind. And they are right on the mark. I wrote the book about my sister to do just what you suggest should take place. My sister was human, she had her faults just like everybody else. But she tried to do her job to the best of her ability as fairly as she could - which was not wanted where she was. Money and power are supposed to bring privilege in some places. It was bad enough that my sister was murdered, but this was done to a police officer, one of their own. That is despicable. Very few people have walked in this family's shoes. Your words are welcome and much appreciated. There will never be much closure, but there is coming a day when, as the song says, "What goes on in the dark, comes to the light." I know Dee is safe and can't be hurt any more. I want the people responsible for hiding the truth held accountable if we never find the killer. The 'hiders' are more guilty to me than the one who pulled the trigger. And the fight to see that happen will never stop as long as people like you and others care about right and wrong. The culling is necessary to protect the very fabric of this country and its safety for anybody.
