Good job but they are going to fight if they want to. I always kinda laughed when I heard of these shake downs and what all people have made and time they took to make weapons. they have all they need anyway and officers give it to them soap in a sock? In prison they got the great lock in a sock are on a belt.
Another crime thwarted under the direction of our new Sheriff.
Hat’s off to Sheriff David Morgan!
