FAREWELL,
GOOD-BYE OR JUST GOOD-RIDDANCE?
[NOTE: The following OP-ED is being published by this
Internet-Blog since the editorial staff believes in exposing IMPORPRIETY AND THE APPEARANCE OF IMPROPRIETY AMONG THOSE
IN PUBILC OFFICE SO AS TO BE A DETERRANT TO OTHERS! And for the record,
the author of the following OP-ED wishes to remain ANONYMOUS, for proximity
reasons and the fact that he may be in litigation with David Jonese in the very
near future, yet for now is expressing his disgust upon reading the
false-propaganda found in the Pokey-Times a week ago on 03 November 2016 under
the heading, “Jonese
reflects on time in office”, by Staff Writer, Brandon Nottingham, ad nauseam, who it turns out was just
discharged from the marine corps the same as done by our illustrious ‘sheriff’ – thus Semper Fi!
ANONYMOUS, however, is also a
person on loan from The Pocahontas Commentator Plus, who believes that
instead of the phony-praise by the Staff Writer of the Pokey-Times, aka, The Pocahontas
Times, Jonese should be CONDEMNED for being perhaps the WORSE
SHERIFF in the county’s history – yet that would mean being WORSE than Jerry
Dale – if that is even possible!]
IMPROPRIETY = 1. the quality of being
improper; 2. improper
action or behavior; 3. an improper use of a
word or
phrase, (Webster’s Dictionary).
OP-ED:
“With respect to any ‘praise’ or ‘condemnation’ of ‘sheriff’
David Jonese, let’s start off with Mrs. Jonese, since she has a job that is
kept real quiet. Does anyone know what
her qualifications are; or does anyone know exactly what her position is? In a county that many believe has a 16%+
unemployment rate, why wasn’t her job offered to the public at large, for the
best qualified person to fill, instead of sliding her into it on the Q-Tee? For that matter was her position already in
existence, and she just replaced someone else, or was her ‘job’ manufactured just so she would have a ‘job’? Of course even the
daughter of ‘sheriff’ Jonese has a ‘job’ with a joint drug task force that
too was never offered or made public UNTIL AFTER THE FACT! Wasn’t this called something like NEPOTISM once upon a
time? I wonder if their last name
had been SMITH or JONES instead of JONESE would either the wife or daughter of
the ‘sheriff’ have their respective ‘jobs’ – or is the real qualification
simply being related to the ‘sheriff’? Did anyone see either of these ‘jobs’ advertised in the local-yocal
Pokey-Times or anywhere else like Craig or Angies List? Nope, didn’t think so!
Oh-yeah, as for the so-called ‘surprise-party’
allegedly ‘masterminded’ by the ‘sheriff’s’ wife, didn’t it sound like
nothing more than one more campaign event for Troy McCoy? Jonese is a Republican while McCoy is a
Democrat, so what was in it for Jonese?
Is this another potential violation of The Hatch Act? And does Jonese really believe that he may
end up being a deputy? Oh, that’s right
JONESE CANNOT BE A DEPUTY WITHOUT FIRST ATTENDING THE WEST VIRGINIA POLICE
ACADEMY…isn’t that
right? Maybe Jonese can become an Umpire
for baseball games since he claims to be ‘trained’ in estimating ‘speed’ without using radar!
In the military ‘sheriff Jonese claims to have ‘served with honor’
rising to the rank of Lt. Col., but was it guarding coffee & copy
machines at the Pentagon, or by leading men in the field of battle as done by
Lt. Col. Price, husband of Donna Meadows Price, our former county
prosecutor? For those that might not
know, Lt. Cols. are more numerous (as ‘gofers’ getting this or that) than Corporals
throughout the Pentagon! But in this
case, is it not also true that our illustrious Lt. Col. missed two (2)
promotions in a row at the Pentagon because of a letter he wrote on behalf of a
failed defense contractor promoting a discredited weapons system – so Jonese
was disgraced and not promoted – yet even so, instead of being routinely
booted-out for missing two-up-grades in a row – our illustrious ‘sheriff was allowed to stay on! Wonder whose derrière was kissed for that oversight?
And as for the Oath that Jonese took 33 years ago when
entering the military – isn’t it the same that MILLIONS of others have
taken? I doubt that after all these
years later any of the rest of us are still bragging about it! And as for defending the Constitution, as the
Oath requires, it sure did not
prevent Jonese from taking away the First Amendment Rights of Norman Alderman,
editor of The
Pocahontas Commentator, or those of Jerome Heinemann, editor of The Pocahontas
Times pursuant to their reporting of corruption on their respective Internet
Blogs! Those arrests had no legal
grounds in law, and both cases were dismissed at the expense of county
taxpayers!
The Last Day for Jonese is 31
December 2016, yet he pledges to ‘continue the mission’! WHAT MISSION?
His hate-filled and revengeful eight (8) years are now over so he
now has NO MISSION
– except perhaps to get out of Dodge before someone takes aim once he is
out-of-office! Did his ‘mission’
include stalking Senior Citizens coming & going from the Green Bank post
office just to give them a ticket for not wearing a seatbelt so the county
court system could extort $190+ in court fees from each? If the truth be known, it seems that Jonese’s entire 8
year ‘mission’ has been one of
preying upon county Senior Citizens to extort court fees & fines, ad nauseam!
How ‘brave’ is that?
Jonese brags about a ‘crime free’
county – yet his cadre of paid informants are running a ‘breaking & entering’ cartel
within a mile-radius of where Jonese lives – and do so under his
protection! The ring-of-thieves have
been centered in a trailer park in Arbovale, and when arrested before release,
Jonese even fed their dogs while ‘his guys’ were incarcerated! Has he done that for you or anyone you know
lately? Want to know who they are? Well they are on Jonese’s payroll since he
pays his SNITCHES each month at tax-payers expense!
Isn’t it funny that the Pokey-Times propaganda NEVER
MENTIONED Jonese’s MOST INFAMOUS ACCOMPLISHMENT – THE COVER UP and OBSTRUCTION
OF JUSTICE that ‘sheriff’ Jonese ran
for his ‘Chief Deputy’ Bradley Totten
while Totten committed 77 SERIAL RAPES! Instead of receiving two (2)
LIFE SENTENCES – or the DEATH PENALTY UNDER BIBLICAL LAW & in some states for
such horrendous crimes – Totten got only seven (7) to ten (10) years! And as for Jonese,
under the PLEA BARGAIN for Totten – why wasn’t Jonese forced to RESIGN – or resign on his own if he had any real or
traditional Marine Corp honor?
While
Jonese deludes himself with claiming the ‘dark days’ of the office of the sheriff are in
the past with the sex-crimes of ‘chief
deputy’ Bradley Totten, and the sex-crimes of J.L. Clifton, what mention
has he made about deputy Sammy Hummel now being charged with sex-crimes by
molesting a 911 operator while she was on duty in her office? Jonese may have a hard time trying to cover
these up once he’s out-of-office!
The Pokey-Times article made this
false-statement,
“Over the years, Jonese has been cracking
down
hard
on criminals, trying to make Pocahontas
County a crime free county.”
Yet the fact remains
that when Jonese came into office the drugs of choice were PILLS & METH –
but now the drug of choice is HERION – for
$3.00 a fix!
And in a small populated county as Pocahontas County
now finds itself – does anyone really believe that the drug-pushers &
junkies cannot be found out & removed?
And speaking of drugs, and how the
‘drug epidemic’
has now allegedly ‘decreased’ – well
remember the twenty-three (23) drug-arrest-cases DISMISSED because the
arresting officer involved was none other than the SERIAL RAPIST Bradley
Totten? But of course, Jonese blamed
then county prosecutor Donna Meadows Price instead of his own poor judgment and
lack of competence! In lieu of folks like
Jonese, perhaps all drug arrests should be handled by the WEST VIRGINIA STATE
POLICE instead of trusting the county office of the sheriff or any of the
deputies of the county sheriff! It is now perfectly clear that
Jonese used the drug-wave to feather his own nest and manufacture a job for his
wife and daughter. The reality is that in
eight (8) years – JONESE DID NOT STOP ANYTHING?
When it comes to PLEA DEALS, while
Jonese claims to not like them – except for his friend Totten – perhaps Jonese
does not know that 97% of all convictions are the result of some PLEA BARGAIN
that saves each county and collectively the State of West Virginia countless
millions from court costs involved in trials & such. Just think of the heavy cost upon the county
had those 23 drug arrests had to go to trial, some for as little as two or
three PILLS in someone’s pocket, plus the time & circumstances involved
were those cases not dismissed pursuant to the personal ‘targets’ Totten had singled out to harass!
As for ‘future plans’, it will indeed be
really interesting to see what kind of deal Jonese can make for himself. But why should he worry, doesn’t his Military
Service Pension place him in the SIX-FIGURES income bracket – an amount that
would be considered a fortune compared to most West Virginians reliant on just
SS, SSD, SSI or minimum-wages each month?
Isn’t one (1) in every seven (7) persons in this state ‘food insecure’
living in extreme poverty compared to the rest of the nation? Shouldn’t anyone be content to live in Pocahontas County on a Military Service Pension
exceeding a hundred-thousand-dollars?
But apparently it isn’t! Next time you see Jonese, ask him about how
he just got his first-cousin, Sandy, committed
to a State Mental Hospital so he could pilfer her
Trust Fund and property! He thinks his
neighbors don’t know about this latest raw-deal of his upon a family member – but we do know David! This ‘poor-excuse’
for a person shows once again he has NO CODE OF HONOR – as he pretends – only
larceny in his innermost being! Besides
being despised by his neighbors, he should know that his neighbors all hope
that his plans for the future entail getting himself out of Pocahontas County
once and for all – and staying away for good!
Lastly, as for the picture of Jonese in the Pokey-Times
dressed out in full-uniform – for someone who has never spent a single
minute ever training for such a role – in this case his picture is more
like him wearing a HOLLOWEEN COSTUME than ever being someone ever qualified to
be wearing FOUR STARS on his collar! Oh yeah, what exactly do the
FOUR STARS supposedly represent or stand for?
Do those stars represent all of the FLUNKIES that have brought DISGRACE
upon the office of the sheriff and this county?
And will we ever know the full cost of all the law suits that have been
brought against the long-list of despicable deputies under his regime? That picture of Jonese is as phony as the
three-dollar-bill wearing that absurd outfit! Perhaps he should have taken his picture in
the same T-Shirt as his flunky Dreama who’s still haunting the Courthouse! Yet the REAL TRAGEDY of this whole scam is
that were this county to have a real INVESTIGATIVE NEWSPAPER – instead of
relying upon competitive Internet Blogs – Jonese and his ilk would have been
run out of office a long time ago…and the county would have been much better
off in the long run. So I say, ‘Chief-Run-a-Muck’ – I bid you FAREWELL & GOOD RIDDANCE!”
