I clearly make a better sandwich than your wife, Dwight.
For a $4,500 bond he can get out and finish the job. Smh. He clearly doesn’t care about the repercussions as he was violating an active domestic violence injunction with this current attack on her. She needs to take some serious steps to protect herself. I’ll leave it at that.
Come on !!! 45000 bond he’s very lucky !!! There is a lot people don’t know about Wendell believe me a whole bunch !!!!
Hasn’t he been on here before?
45k bond? Give me a break.
