I was referring to negative things stated about both candidates not just Absher. But you tell yourself whatever it takes to justify it to yourself - the rest of us know the truth.

Bucky was chief deputy when these documented violations occurred. And it’s well known that he handled most of the hiring and personnel management. Especially in the last two years of Williams administration because he was banking time to retire. It is also known that he is responsible for rehiring the employees shown violating county policies and state laws. This isn’t slinging mud. It’s informing voters on what’s going on in their sheriff’s department.

I personally know an like both of the candidates and neither of them deserve some of the things that have been said on this site about them. When there are problems within an organization then the elected official who is ultimately in charge of that organization should address them.
Neither of these candidates have ever had an opportunity to be in charge of the organization and regardless of what you may think you know they have not had the final say on anything that occurs. In addition, most of the discussions I've seen about both candidates center around the time frame when Williams was in charge which was over two years ago and may have already been addressed
When one of these candidates attains office then yes they should be held accountable and issues pointed out to them. Roark, Buchanan and crowd were in elected/appointed positions at the top of the line so the buck stopped there and the issues being discussed were current. And let's be honest here - the comments being posted over the last two weeks have not been posted for the sake of bringing an issue to light to correct it but to negatively impact both of the candidates in an upcoming election. If you think otherwise then you are a fool.

I'm a democrat. Unfortunately, I care about where and how my money is spent. I don't care about hearing a politician talk about arresting 15-20 people over the last year and charging them each with 10 to 20 counts to make it sound big while hiring criminals to work for you in the background.

If I am going to hire a neighbor to clean up my backyard, I don't want look over and see a mess in his. Two of the people in the pics were rehired & given raises... Sickening.

Lets go back a little further, we exposed the facts about Judy Poe, Gerry Price, and the reason they let Gates walk out of the county.

Tell me how informing the citizens what is really going on negative campaigning? You also didn’t complain when I exposed the facts about Roark, Yearick, or Buchanan.

Karma there is a difference in negative campaigning and speaking the truth. Were you to keep up and be active on the site what fins and I post is always found to be the truth. Do you just want to continue to be part of the cover up in the county?

Frankly I do not care for the negative campaigning on either side. It is in poor taste and makes both sides look bad. I used to think that some of the posters on here made sense from time to time but I have not one shred of respect for any of the posters (on both sides) who are involved.

That is S.P. For who ever didn’t believe it was her. And those pictures aren’t from a inmates cell it’s from the surveillance camera’s in and around the jail. Also it’s Miller and Fat boy Calloway ourtside with the inmates smoking. Funny huh 😂

I wonder why an inmate was allowed to have a phone in jail. Oh. Paint my chair's and you can have what you want. Duh!.. I'm blonde. Give me a break!

I count 3 inmates and 2 barneys smoking when they should be locked up.

btw, the pic of painting chairs was taken with an inmate's illegal cellphone.

Hear say is one thing but to actually see it is another. I'm glad to know where my tax money is being spent.

That is the head jailer sitting on a box or chair with her hand up at her mouth.

I saw the head jailer and the light headed woman (Ms. Hothead) sitting together at a commissioner's meeting. Ms. Hothead is the woman that got up in front of the commissioners to tell them it was illegal for inmates to have tobbacco and all sorts of stuff. She obviously forgot to tell everyone that it all happened on Williams & Bucky's watch.

The head jailer quit as soon as Buchanan got appointed. The man pictured & Ms hot head was fired by Buchanan.

Bucky rehired the man & head jailer as soon as Hartley was appointed to fill in as Sheriff.

The man, Ms hothead and Head jailer were at Bucky's election announcement party at Smokey MTN BBQ according to an employee at the restaurant.

Ms. Hot Head never returned to the jail as she got another job making more money elsewhere.

I am sure Bucky and the head jailer has held a spot open for Hothead, as they did the man.

It's a sad day in Ashe.

Holy cow. Bucky must really be proud of his head jailer sitting in the jail's garage (with the states' inmates) while they paint her sons wedding chairs. I wonder if the judge specifically sentenced them to work for the head jailer? Maybe next time, they'll get sentenced to pick up trash for the community instead. Oh, Shes probably on smoke break? In the other picture I see what appears to be a couple of jailers with what appears to be several inmates smoking. Hmmm outside the jail?? It's wild that the court house has a sign that says something like, "no smoking within 50 feet" and if I remember correctly, no one is supposed to smoke close to a government facility? This is crazy stuff. Really crazy stuff. I'm speechless..

Hope Karma you are absolutely wrong. Those photos are from during the time Bucket was chief deputy before Bufurt was put in office.

BOTH of those jailors (the head jailor S.P.) and the male jailor (G.C.) were let go by Bufurt and REHIRED and given BACK PAY by Bucket when Bucket came back. They both work at the jail right now under Bucket. One of them is the head jailor.

Fins ole pal - you’ve been played. That photo of inmates smoking was from the Buchanan era and those jailers and inmates are not there any longer.
