you'd be surprised. lot of fairly old money in waynesboro. Kelley's, Clark Oil family, TK Stanley family, and others. i don't live there, but have clients there that are well-connected. one of my clients actually gave me 4 tickets (yes tickets) to Leggett's yearly party a couple of years ago. My wife didn't want to go, so we didn't. smart lady
There was also quite a group of people in that area that "hepped Powe" while he was fine tuning his scholastic skills at OM. Powe probably still flunkies for a lot of them now.
no. Wayne county people. always have been. That's where TK Stanley company headquarters were until the Duff brothers bought them. They still have a large operation in Waynesboro, along with old man TK's sawmill, that he started his company with. He had the sawmill, and when the oil boom of the early 70's hit, someone asked him if he could make the boards for the board roads the oil rigs needed to get to their sites. He said "hell yeah", and that's how he got into oil field hauling business.
So you don’t want a nice house in Waynesboro AND a deer or fishing camp?
Bunch of s h i t going on in Wayne Co at the moment. The current sheriff totaled a brand new cruiser in the wee hours of the morning one day this past week. His stupid a s s left the scene, waited several hours and then called his buddy the Jones County Sheriff to send a deputy to pick up his a s s at the Wayne/Jones County Line and haul him to the hospital.

Holy crap are we talking the same guy? Hit his facebook page up and he does have a lot of Wayne County sh*t on it. Wow.
Wayne County folks have always had a little jealousy towards the Free State of Jones…
I'm a socialite on the sixpack. That's enough status.
So, it looks like these guys had invested in a medical marijuana business and felt like they have been ripped off? I saw in a DJ article that a woman from Texas had been arrested.
Holy crap! I was in a couple of group projects with him at State. Seems like he was in a third of my business classes. I used to see him at the bar with Ontario Harper all the time
Gist of this sounds like a swindler pitched a $20 MM Mary Jane growing business to some less than business savvy "investors". When said investors saw swindler not constructing a Mary Jane growing operation and blowing money on himself, they wanted their $300,000 back that they invested. Apparently, Californian dude has a growing business out there and was brought in to help get it off the ground. Allegedly , Powe took matters into his own hands to get the money back. But Powe is saying the swindler set them up to get them arrested and off of his back. Somehow a Texas woman is also involved. Along with Leggett. Good lord, this one could get drawn out.
US Marshall's literally exist to find and arrest fugitives. It's what they do. Maybe you're thinking about the secret service.
Yes, fugitives. They don’t normally make a lot of arrests otherwise. I’ve been on government task forces before. That’s why I found this odd.
