The next Colbert County Commission meeting is important to all citizens of the Shoals. From the Colbert County Corruption site:
Please join us Tuesday night March 17th @5pm at the Colbert County Courthouse!
The Colbert County Commission will be discussing/voting on a resolution for HB393 REAGAN’S REENTRY PROGRAM FOR SEX OFFENDERS CHILD PROTECTION.
February 2020 Andrew Sorrell, State House, District 3 had gotten verbal commitments (in favor of a resolution) from four commissioners:
Tommy Barnes
Darol Bendall, Commissioner, Colbert County District 5
David L. Black (quoted in person to Rep. Sorrell and on his re-election campaign Facebook page)
Jimmy Gardiner for Colbert County Commissioner District 3 (quoted in Times Daily saying he would support the resolution)
After Rep. Sorrell had gotten those verbal commitments, he introduced HB393 in the House and it passed on March 12th. HB393 was co-sponsored by Rep. Jamie Kiel. To be clear, this bill ONLY applies to sexual re-entry programs in Colbert County. Drug rehabilitation and other similar programs are not covered by or included in this bill. This Bill (addressing sex offender halfway houses) is a mighty step in placing safety measures in place for our children!
In case you missed it, sex offender activist Derek Warren Logue is fighting against the legislation. He's come out slugging in his usual dirty manner against both Andrew Sorrell and Edward Bowman.
Decisions, decisions! Which is worse, 1) a man who places his hands all over an innocent girl or 2) the person who sends that information to the man's employer and a blogger or 3) the blogger who reports on it? As we all know, if you never mention evil, it will immediately go away and never come back.
