another walton county double standard?

[Bob Wells]

Well---It is costly to operate a "special" command center from day 1 and wine and dine your office staff (including secretarys and etc) 24 hours a day--this included overtime and etc. It was closed "only" when BP said they would not pay for anything
not authorized by them. Has Mrs. Comander asked "where's the money"? Talking about conflict of interest: Ronnie Bell-employed by C.W. Roberts and paid consultant
of Walton County--also--Bill Chapman's son-in-law. Go Figure!

First of all, I understood Ronnie Bell to the position with CW Roberts after his retirement, if true no conflict of interest. Second the money that was budgeted for beach protection was to be billed to BP as I understood it. As for who voted for what, who cares, it needed to be done to protect Walton Counties biggest industry, as for Bill Chapmans' demotion the question is who replaced him as under sheriff and is the majors slot really a slot or is it just a paper demotion?

For Chapman. The way WJHG 7 said it the other night. Was there would be two Majors within the Sheriff's Office. Chapman being one of the two. But he would be taking a 10,000.00 dollar cut in pay. FOR WHAT!!!! LESS RESPONSIBILITY= Demotion. Come on Sheriff you will have to do better than this. It looks to me that Chapman demoted hisself and took a weeks vacation. On the week of Labor day non the less.

I would say 3 million dollars (if true) is alot of money.

Oops, wrong thread, I was referring to the Mattison issue

This seems to be a pattern at the Sheriff's Dept. It took two employees to replace Barker and now I guess two employees will replace Chapman, one being the man himself. Sounds like we cannot afford anyone else getting in trouble because at this rate we will go broke.:roll:

I'll bet his Dad is super glad to have put his career in jeopardy for Junior, now that he's BACK in jail on a SECOND domestic violence charge (sounds like he was having trouble with his wife AND girlfriend):

From WZEP:

Chapman Arrested On Second Charge

Greg Chapman was booked into the Walton County jail Thursday afternoon on a domestic violence injunction charge. The report is, this warrant was from Santa Rosa County. Last week, Chapman was arrested in Walton County on a domestic violence charge after he struck his girlfriend.

Chapman is listed with the Santa Rosa Clerk of Courts as having a pending domestic violence case with Shelley Chapman as the plaintiff. The case last had a docket date of September 2 with judge Bergosh. The case was filed August 6. The case lists a temporary injunction.

Chapman, a former Walton Sheriff?s deputy and son of Bill Chapman with the sheriff?s office, was released only hours after his arrest last week, when the judge made a late night visit to the jail to hold a bond hearing. The quick release was based on Chapman?s former law enforcement job and keeping him from having to stay in solitary confinement. The matter resulted in Walton Sheriff Mike Adkinson moving Bill Chapman from Undersheriff to Major. The jail reports Chapman remained in jail last night.​

It would seem to me that trouble with your girlfriend would lead to trouble with your wife in most cases.

Wow, this case keeps getting classier and classier.

P.S. I hope one of these women shoots this abusive arsehole.

I had that happen to an Uncle growing up. The Aunt was acquitted, but the family never got over it. I think it was she shot him six times in the back as he was running away that caused eyebrows to be raised.

As long as the story had a happy ending. ;-)

Seriously though, this is the behavior of one of our former law enforcement officers?

Would be a lot happier if the sheriff would just make him a plain deputy to punish him But not fire him times are hard
