| the point is that a sheriff should just stay out of the way. he should not be in the paper every other day. I know of several officers that he ran off. his command staff is any better. the job of the sheriff is just to run the courthouse and jail all this other stuff is just running down his meployees. I was an employee but i would never work for him. If Hulsey wins and goes back to the way things are i will reapply. gatorsmack im not saying that rickman was a good sheriff just that things ran smoother. people like larry payne got things done.

Have considered seeing a shrink!!!!
How do you dispute the fact that Tim has started some amazing programs? Tim has a general concern for his community as did Sheriff Adams!!! What employees were ran off?? I have held many different supervisory positions with several organizations and its my opinion that employees run themselves off because they can't cut the mustard or they can't stand improvement. For your info I don't think Hulsey has a chance. So you might want to give up the hope of working for a sheriff with strings attached.

Yeah lets go back to no public awareness drugs getting worse and no help for kids because disgruntled thinks ya can not help them anyway.
I for one love to see his programs, and have seen the positive effect on the kids. I have also helped do a few programs that I invited the SO to give information at, and thanks to Tims programs get the info. we need to help kids.
I never think writing off kids is a good thing, and if you think going back to the good old days of just going to and from the courthouse is all you need, then I really feel sorry for you.

What would you consider the sheriff's place?
Let me explain a few things if i may! 1st the Sheriff is a constitutional officer in that he is responsible for the courthouse, jail, civil division and warrant service. In gest that would be what Hulsey would call the basics. 2nd the Sheriff is elected by the citizens of this county, so why wouldn't anyone want a SHERIFF that's proactive in the community. The kids within itself are the future of this county, that's were sheriff Burkhalter see as a great investment. TIM takes it a step further and tries to help the seniors of this community. Why wouldn't he, without them leading us yesterday where would we be today. TIM had, has and will continue to have a vision for FLOYD county. I believe in Tim because he can see the need to educate our youth and take care of our seniors. TIM could do more for this community if We would replace the commissioners that stand in the way of improvement....
Ask anyone what these programs cost the tax payers???? answer Zip, Nil, Zero, Nothing.....
Mr, Mrs or miss disgruntle by all means chill out maybe Poe and Hulsey will take you to chilis. question also for you why do they call payne (L.L.)

That in itself is a horrid thought, everyone is responsible for the well being of our children, if we all turn our backs maybe the problem will go away.
Disgusted now is what I am to think that there are still such backwards people.

Any other place I have ever lived it has always been the Sherrifs office to do programs like the ones Tim has started, I dont know where you learned, but I am very glad to see it.
heck a quick google with the words: best programs for kids by sheriff departments
gives a good list of some of the top and not so top departments in our country that the Sheriff provides programs thru.

Other than disgruntal (should consider seeing a shrink) does Hulsey even have any supporters on these sites. I been reading several a I don't see one could be mistaken but i don't believe so. No support for hulsey???? I say Burkhalter all the way

That has been the problem..........it has been no one's place and everyone has passed the buck.......the school system, the judicial system, the criminal justice system, the church, parents, hollywood, media, they have had chances to inform, educate, be a roll model, minister to, rehabilitate, punish, deter, prevent, nurture and most have all passed the buck! Thanks Tim for stopping the d**n buck!!!

Disgruntled,
First of all you are so wrong about the operations during Rickmans term. The best thing to happen at the S.O. was to get a whole new administration and fix the good ol boy system to a functional department with moral and pride. Tim did that. (I do'nt really like his choices in some of the command staff positions.) But, sometimes it's better to give someone a second chance to redeem themselves. Some have, some have not.
I did work under the Rickman klan and moral stunk....( remember the Bar b que tickets) and the crap you undertook if you did not sell them for him? I realize all of this is finally and gratefully history but nowdays are brighter and better. I am no longer with the department and I have worked under Sheriff Burkhalter. He is an understanding Sheriff.
I really think your problem lies with his command staff more than it does with Tim.
Tim YOU have my vote JS

| I could not help but notice that someone posted about how much smoother the former Sheriff ran his office. All I can say to that is "What the He**?". Has he not kept up with all the recent federal court testimony. The former Sheriff was mentioned along with his full time caddy and personal driver. I have asked people that worked there how much they missed the former sheriff and they laughed. My understanding from the ones I talked to that two people who played a large role in getting the former Sheriff out of office were his caddy and the one already mentioned in another post. How could you trust a person whos nick name begins with the word" Lying". They said he did get a lot done but it was usually wrong(not within the rules). I was told the he was known for telling people he had a 20/20 IQ ( not a very smart statement for a leader) and very vendictive . From what I have been told, Sheriff Burkhalter is doing a great job. From what I can see with my own eyes , he appears to be doing a fine job. Seems to me that there are always people that arent happy. I'm sure that you will find some people at his office that dont agree with him, but every work place has them and they have that right. A boss could do everything in the world for them and they would want more or find fault with what was done. It could be that they are former employees that were fired, which I can agree with firing employees if they dont do their work , wont do their work, lie , or charged with a crime.
