Don't forget a cool $1 million for the blueprints...

It's always been obviously crooked, but since his companies are private there's no legal way to see who's giving him money... or how much.

Maybe we need that investigated too. Never made sense that they spent $22M on a 45,000 sq ft building when they could have purchased a 450,000 building with 50 acres for $7M. But when you have 3 incompetent people, what do you expect?

Never thought about that. Isn't that the way it always is?


Sadly, yes. As the Chairman he had a lot of say on who got contracts, so of course businesses had to play the game if they want the contract. Or they could just use his businesses more and funnel money to him that way.

Nobody rides for free and all that...

I guess the county manager and county clerk might get a free pass, too. It was probably up to the commissioners whether to give them a cost of living pay raise, and they had to grease the wheels to get their raises...

I would be very suspicious of any of these people or organizations that don't publicly address their donation.

The only one that I would be willing to give a free pass is the Speedway. While at first glance it seems like they just got $18 million + $4 million a year from the state to turn around and funnel it to other politicians, we all know that they need for the county to do things for them, too. I can imagine that they didn't have much of a choice but to give Stoney a little money in exchange for his vote...

A little bird said someone is dumping bait dogs all over the county.

Interesting how many dogs are being found recently. Some with some old wounds.

I wouldn't waste my time trying to get any of our local authorities involved. It's at a Federal level now and I wouldn't be surprised if some local authorities aren't being investigated also.

I hope that this is true. Wilkes County is better than this. Wilkes County is better than Stoney Greene.

This is now an ongoing Criminal Investigation with people close to Greene coming forward and cooperating with authorities. It's a lot Bigger than just him at this point and those who want to continue covering and supporting him are a part of criminal conspiracy.

He has no problem taking everyone down with him.

I have not heard anything. I think we must continue to report his bad deeds. Newspapers in larger cities should be notified. And even networks. I noticed that one of the animal groups that reported it before the election has done another story about it.

Any news on Stoney being removed? Just curious what type of responses anyone has received from other commissioners? I understand Sexton supports Stoney.

Dulld I'm sorry you don't feel appreciated and that your dogfighting friends can't understand that they are criminals. But in the real world there's something called the rule of law.

The fact that you brag about offing your fellow soldiers doesn't make you look tough. It makes you look the same way as defending dogfights. Like a mentally broken fool.

DLD, I did not even need that word. It is what is in your brain.


I said " WE WILL SHUT UP TILL THE GUY IS GONE. " Meaning as I have said 100 times, we will not stop till he resigns.

Could be " we will shut up when the guy is gone". But you are the one with the warped brain. I guess you are just like Greene.

I do not kill, or hurt. . Just individuals sick in the head think like that. Did you read about most people that abuse animals will abuse their families and others?
