"Sheets' investigation has also made headlines because of the arrest of a key source.
Sheets spoke with a landscaper named Matt Qualls who mowed Entrekin's lawn in 2015 and noticed the name of the account on his checks — the "Sheriff Todd Entrekin Food Provision Account." He shared pictures with Sheets."
"Sheets' initial story was published on Feb. 18. On Feb. 22, Qualls was arrested and charged with drug trafficking after an anonymous call complained of the smell of marijuana from an apartment.
Qualls, who had never been arrested before, faces six charges and is being held on a $55,000 bond, Sheets reports. He is detained in a jail that Entrekin oversees."
Can we do a cost benefit analysis on Alabama and see if we are in any from profiting from preventing them from seceding?

- sremani 9y agoIts very close to port of New Orleans which is the only place in South the British attacked in 1812 war and its capture by Union forces in early half of civil war was pivotal for the outcome of that war. For strategic reasons its absolutely necessary for US to have complete control of Mississippi river system including the mouth of the river. It would be a strategic blunder to let Alabama secede, also as much as HN loves to hate the south, Alabama has over 33% African American population, that has to be kept in mind. The world is not static, before jerking off and spewing words like secession a deep breath and a mindful analysis helps.

Did anyone bring up race here? I don't see how a comment about race is relevant towards discussion of corrupt government.
- aje403 9y agoHi sremani, I was not seriously suggesting that the nation come together to contemplate whether Alabama should seceed or not, but that will not stop me dreaming.
- theandrewbailey 9y agoThey tried seceding about 160 years ago. There was a huge war and about half the country was destroyed.
