This guy was a real slime. Here’s a link http://ftpcontent.worldnow.com/wowk/Thornsbury.pdf to a pdf of the full indictment. State Trooper Moore was named top trooper during the timeline this was happening. Jarrod Fletcher was County Director of Homeland Security and Emergency Management.

Thanks Tolerance Sucks Rocks.

I guess I’d better stop sleeping with his old girlfriend. And his sister. And his daughter. And his new defense attorney. Okay, I’m done.
