\nJohn,\n

\nI am so sorry you had to see these offenses, it should have been\ninvestigated\/viewed by the Sheriffs Dept. or GBI, these are crimes not violations like the GDA says!\n
\n\n<\/a>\n

\nI will not give up on this; crimes should\nbe punished as such. I have written many citiznes of lowndes county\ncitations and they have been charged with these crimes by a court of\nlaw. No one is above the law including Linda Patelski, but the GDA\nrecognizes these crimes as violations, not crimes or they would have\nbeen handled as such. No person should be covered under the umbrella of\nGDA. After statements have been lost by them (GDA) and then resubmitted\nit just seems like these crimes are no more important then losing a\nreceipt for gas.\n

\nI find that\n\n<\/a>\n\nJoe Prichard involving my character in this matter<\/a>\nirrelevant and my convictions in court cases involving\nanimal cruelty inhumane treatment and other ordinance violations\nand state laws speak of my character, over 400 cases brought before\nmagistrate court, municipal court and state court out weigh his\npersonal opinion(s) and one case lose in five years of employment as\nanimal control officer for Lowndes County and I was told to write that\ncitation by my director Linda Patelski for nuisance dog. I have not\ndiscredited any employee who works for Lowndes County in these\nmatters… I have told the truth and\n\nhave documentation<\/a> to back what I say.\n

\nBecause I said I have no respect for Joe Prichard in my statement<\/blockquote>\n\n\n

\nto the Department of Agriculture means after I have told everything\nstill he does nothing, I would not discredit him but I do not have to\nhave respect after he disregarded these matters. The chain of\ncommand… it must be none the shelter chain of command has two weak\nlinks, our director and Lowndes County, that’s why we went to GDA with\nthese issues, That is not disrespectful it is fact. In the memo from\nLinda is states we are not able to go to outside entities GDA, GBI and\nthe FBI… and we will not be retaliated against, does that mean we\nwill if we go to those entities with crimes?\n

\nThese are crimes… not\ninternal issues although there are those too. It is against the law and\nagainst policy to harass; but employees have been threatened by our own\nemployer Lowndes County. Racial statements and harassment are a few of\nthe other problems incorporated in my statement. Laws not just internal\nissues! There is an African American man Eric Sharp who is an animal\ncontrol officer, who has had the lights flickered on an off on him then\nemployee Ryan Curtis and former employee Jacob Fox (now in the\nmilitary) would say “Where’s Eric, indicating you could only see his\nteeth in the dark”! Racial harassment, On another occasion Ryan Curtis\ntold Officer Eric Sharp to “SHUT YOUR MOUTH BLACK MAN!” and these\nmatters are not being dealt with either! It is a hostile work\nenvironment to say the least! Cruelty, inhumane treatment, falsifying\nrecords, destroying records, racial harassment with employees and the\npublic to name a few… tell me were does it all end!\n

\nThank you so much for your involvement in these matters…\n
