Right?????
Something doesn’t add up.
If I had to guess, either someone on the force didn’t like this guy.
Either that, or someone really cozy with the cops was mad about their weedeater being stolen.
It’s crazy to me that one of my neighbors could be doing something shady and it gets me killed. As often as my packages get delivered at the wrong place, it’s scary to think about.
Turns out it belonged to a county official. Go figure.
David Westerfield. The Laurel County Judge Executive.
There it is.
