    Court documents obtained by local media reveal the Weed Eater was stolen from the home of Laurel County Judge-Executive David Westerfield by a man named Hobert Buttery, 49, who confessed to the crime

    Judge-Executive is something I’ve not seen or heard. According to Wikipedia, it’s unique to Kentucky. Also, fuck Kentucky. Nothing good comes from there.

    Sidebar to say that Hobert Buttery is a wild name.

    The incident is also raising questions as to why London police were asking dispatchers for the address if they had an actual search warrant which would list the address on it. WKYT said it has made several public records request for the warrant but the Laurel County courthouse says it has no record of a warrant and police have not produced a copy of the warrant either.

    Sounds fishy. But the south is absolutely where I’d expect to see this kind of fuckery. Not that it wouldn’t happen on either coast, but this sounds like some very “we do our own laundry” type thinking.

    But Kentucky State Police specifically mentioned London police had a “search warrant” in its statement published on its website.

    Cops never lie, so I’m sure this is fine.

    Footage from local media shows the address, 511, was clearly visible on the front of Harless’ home. Yet after the shooting, a voice can be heard on the dispatch recording saying, “shots fired. 489 Vanzant Road.”

    People should be tried and convicted for this fuckup.

    “… I hope the man that stole it is enjoying his Christmas. God will judge us all in the end.”

    And then your last sentence reminds me why I hate you. Keep that shit in your home and your church. Fuck off conservatives.

      I am more pissed that the family seems to be blaming the murder on the dood that stole a weed eater. Its wild.
