Fugitive couple returns to Tennessee

Mrs. Hiatt is beyond mere stupid.

[hombre_sincero]

A small example of the misuse of the English language by politically correct cowards.

The story begins:

"A couple charged in the killing..."

instead of

"THE couple ..."

A small word with a huge difference in meaning. After all aren't THEY the ones being charged? Was there ANOTHER couple charged?

Ever hear of incrementalism in propaganda techniques? This is a small example of removing guilt or responsibility from people.

That's ok - we know who they are, and we know who did it. We'll take good care of them.

[libstripper]

Unfortunately, we have a very bad record of imposing the death penalty effectively. It would be far better if they were being extradited to Florida, Texas, or Virginia.

[ken5050]

I think this is one of those cases that goes through..both get fried.

[Tennessee_Bob]

Florida, Texas, or Virginia

Too bad we can't just take them to downtown Wartburg.

[girlangler]

Tennessee Bob,

I like that statement. They wouldn't have to suffer long in Wartburg.

[PAR35]

It would be far better if they were being extradited to Florida, Texas, or Virginia.

Or just let the Ga. State Patrol transport them from one jail to another.

...and she was a nurse. That is a comforting thought.

Or a little closer in, Petros
The New River people would be very
congenial to the couple

[HangnJudge]

...and she was a nurse. That is a comforting thought.

It is heart curdling to see a Nurse breach their Florence Nightingale Oath
Just as it is to see a Physician breaching their Hippocratic Oath

Sends cold chills through my soul

[girlangler]

HangnJudge,

Oh yea, I've been to New River. As adventurous as I was when I was a young gal in the 1970s living in Dutch Valley (outside of Clinton) I knew better than to go to New River.

Those folks over there still fued. You don't mess with 'em.

'Bot dern got my head blowed off up in ther'
Came up on a 1/2 acre pot patch up in the Windrocks
above Rosedale, had 3 mean guys with shotguns and
a pickup truck "escort" me away

Now it's worse, with the meth labs
I will not go off the beaten path up there any more

[girlangler]

HangnJudge,

Sorry but your post has me laughing so hard I'm crying.

And I believe every word you say.

I'd love to hear that whole story, about you getting escorted and all, and the circumstances (sp).

I am very familiar with the area you are referring to.

Now -- brace yourself, I am an old hillbilly girl who found myself lost in them there hills at a very young tender age.

Married into a real HILLBILLY family, spent about nine years in that situation until God or somebody decided to rescue me. Went on with my life and did pretty good, if you consider where I came from.

I tell people a lot of times about my experiences and accomplishments. Heck, I participated in cornfield olympics and learned how to run real fast through that cornfield. I could have been a world class runner.

I was running from my God-fearing father-in-law, who was the deacon of the local Baptist Church. He was the PILLAR of our small community, and felt it was OK to rape your daughters, daughter-in-laws, or grandaughters.

But don't drink a beer -- or you'll go to Hell fast.

My inlaws still used an outhouse in the early 1970s when I married into that family.

I've got some good stories to tell, and I believe you must also.

Ask me sometime about the guy the state wildlife agency busted with more than 100 poisonous snakes in his freezer. I called a friend at TWRA after receiving the news release and asked "Why would anybody want 100 poisonous snakes in their freezer?"

Turns out he was one of them good snake handling preachers. He got busted for poaching bear on the Cherokee National Forest, and, as part of the investigation they found the snakes.

I can just see his flock (denomination) getting bit with snakes while he was waving around frozen ones and passing the collection plate.

You ever been to Potter Falls up in Morgan County?

We little rednecks used to swim there in the 1970s.

People pay good money to swim in REPLICAS of waterfalls in places like Las Vegas. Shoot, I did the real thing.

Aint a place in the world prettier, or fuller of God's creatures and creations, than east Tennessee.

I have two (maybe three) hoot owls, barren owls, who come to my house in the woods every night and entertain me.

Just moved to Campbell County in June. I fit right in here.

My career and life has taken me all across the U.S., but I always come back to east Tennessee.

I guess it's just a thing about your roots. I was born here and I'll die here.

But I plan to catch a few fish before that happens.

It's called God's country for a reason.

My family is mostly West Virginia ( 8 generations )
But I'm East Tenn. by grace of God
I was playing around where the windmills are above Oliver Springs

When got a wild hair to follow ridge roads to the NW,
I figured I'd eventually come out on 116 somewhere in New River
The Pot Field was unexpected, and definitely out in the middle of East God's Nowhere.
I'd left the durn thing alone but was dumbfounded by the size and "healthiness"
of the 3 foot tall Marijuana plants in 1/2 acre of well cultivated land, carefully taken care of,
and had the bad taste to stop and ogle the sight.

Bad Move.

The Bad Guy's came up behind me fast, armed, and pissed.
We took off like a bat outta h..l and skedaddled outta there like my life depended on it,
they took of after me but pealed off after ~1mi.
Scared the pee out of me, came out by Rosedale school
At a washed out bridge over a stream never so glad to see asphalt in my life.
I've no intent of going back

I've since met the matriarch of family members
likely discomforted by my intrusion into their sancosanctorum
She figured they were likely just scaring me off
REAL effective they were.

The people in that community would likely take the recent
Murderous efforts of the couple in question VERY PERSONNALY
as they are immediately adjacent to Brushy prison

You ever been to Potter Falls up in Morgan County?

My favorite falls in East Tenn. is Virgin Falls Pocket Wilderness
Virgin Falls

Although I've been to many falls in the area, this one takes the cake

You mean this falls?
