    Well Mary Anderson bad news for you. You are completely wrong. You shouldn’t believe everything you hear

  2. I'm not her says:

    Nice guy…really?!! “Nice guys” don’t put this poison out on the streets! What makes him nice? Dangling little hits of dope in the face of desperate addicts to get brush work done? Some other dirty work maybe? Yeah, he’s just swell!

  3. Mary Anderson says:

    Okay Bo. So you don’t currently have warrants out for assault, violating restraining order violations, and phone harassment? I suppose public records are wrong again. As far as you being hard to catch? Well, Karma aka the law will get you eventually. You can’t hide forever.

  4. So Sad says:

    Hmmmm Shouldn’t Judge, I guess we know where you get your drugs from. Anyone that has the audacity to defend drug dealers for what they do to our community is obviously butt hurt cause their dealer is in jail.

  5. shouldn't judge says:

    Hmmmmm “So sad” I think that ur opion is urs..to have but do rember that idiot u talk about has family and friend that r on here and although I’m sure u feel u have a right to be heard as anyone does …but this idiot I speak of without knowing any facts about would help anyone that needed it he is a kind person who is not a idiot like u say …u should probably not use such harsh judging words about someone who has not done a dam thing to u …..u know nothing about these guys and I for one would like u to shut ur mouth about them …

  7. So Sad says:

    The community corrections officer got a tip on the drug delivery? Why the hell is this idiot even out of jail? Did they think he could be rehabilitated? Your kidding right? And it obviously runs in the family for crying out loud. Sure let them out on bail again, they still have more of the stash to sell. How do you expect them to pay their fines and court fees if they aren’t out to keep selling. We need a NEW prosecutor for this community. One with a spine and the balls to keep these drug sellers OFF the streets.

  8. Bo Rupert says:

    Warrants? What warrants?I think you are a blithering idiot. And I am not an easy guy to locate these days. I guess I would have to have a warrant before they catch up with me.

  9. Steve says:

    To be orr where do you get your info? It kills me what some of our loose county low lifes have to say about our local law enforcement or LE in general. If you don’t like it here why don’t you move?! That way the rest of us don’t have to hear your rubbish and lies!

  10. Pea body slim. says:

    If Bo had warrants they would come and get him.. Get a life

  11. Mary Anderson says:

    I sure hope the police catch up with you too Bo. Gotta take care of those warrants sometime. Public records don’t lie.

  12. Bo Rupert says:

    The people involved in spreading the nude photos of this underage girl had better hope like hell the police don’t catch up with them. I hope they do.

  13. Pea body slim. says:

    Yeah lets Inventory the police evidence locker. Im sure its missing a few things…..

  14. Pea body slim. says:

    Another stolen Honda, still no bait car. Good Job law enforcement your on top of the crime wave of stolen Hondas. Gps trackers under 100 bucks what are you doing with the traffic ticket money? Fail CPD

  15. To Be Orr Not To Be says:

    Great! Glad the cops are “on the case”. If it weren’t for “cases” like these, those photos wouldn’t end up in pedophile’s hands.

    99.9% of all snuff films and underage porn videos are leaked from evidence storage rooms. Same goes for all the drugs they claim to be “keeping off the streets”.

  16. BobbyinLC says:

    Exactly. These kids just don’t realize what they are doing with these sexting photos.

  17. still waiting for justice says:

    How many idiots got to try to drive after drinking only to wreck, hut themselves, possible hurt and kill others and fuck their life up for an extended period of time??

  18. Mad momma says:

    Jeez how did the nude pictures get taken?
