PW county came out with a ton of reccomendations! Wonder how many the will follow up with!

In other Local news

A Smyth County Virginia State police Trooper (Chapman) was in his Marked police car with blue lights activated last Friday night when a STUPID DRUNK hit the back of his car and in turn causing Life threating injuries to the Trooper!

The Guy who hit him is BARRY MARSHALL from Abingdon. Well this piece of crap bonded out of jail and guess what got drunk again and got caught again Sunday night! This time his drunk Girlfriend was driving!


What makes me mad is that here is a young well respected Trooper doing his job and then comes a long a piece of crap drunk who almost takes his life and most likley ended his career! Instead of having a fund raiser, Trooper Chapman and his family should be awarded the next lottery jackpot...cancel the drawing and give him the money! Then in turn the state in his behalf should sue this piece of crap for all they can get! If he had insurance sue them too!

I know that the benefit supper is in Marion and here is the information!
