When Helene Ball McGee if Dunedin, Fla., turned to Greer for protection against her abusive husband, Bobby Lane McGee in March, 1998, Greer rebuked her plea for help, saying that he wasn’t “convinced that her life was in imminent danger”.
In asking for the court order, she told Greer that her husband forced himself on her sexually, burned her belongings and said she was possessed by the devil. Greer ruled that she didn’t have “enough proof” that her husband was violent because she said he had not been physically violent----yet. Apparently Rice took no steps to protect one of his own employees from harm either.
Two weeks later, Helene McGee was dead, stabbed to death.
Her husband had left a message telling her he was leaving town, leading her to believe that it would be safe to return to their home because he wouldn’t be there. Upon entering her home, he stabbed her to death.
Deputies found her husband hiding, submerged in a drainage ditch behind their house, wearing camouflage and a black mask. He was charged with first degree murder.
Helene McGee was a nurse at the Pinellas County Jail operated by Pinellas County Sheriff Everett Rice, Pinellas County Sheriff, one of Greer’s best friends. Her co-workers say she was scared to death of her husband.
Please be advised that JUDGE GEORGE GREER, a tin pot dictator, IS ALSO GOP. THE JUDGE KILLING TERRI IS A REPUBLICAN. Please call the Republican National Party and the Florida RNC and tell them to toss Greer overboard. He is going to cost the party A WHOLE SLEW OF RED STATES. People are going to abandon the GOP if they allow the tin pot GOP Greer to murder Terri. (Darn, my phone numbers are downstairs.)
PLEASE LOCATE AND CALL THE NATIONAL RNC AND THE FLORIDA RNC. Thank you. FV
I've been trying to access this story on your site, but the full version seems to have been pulled -- by the hacker?
If you don't mind my saying, I think you guys (if you're from empirejournal.com, made a serious mistake by not allowing the posting of full-text articles to freerepublic. I tried posting one of your articles last week, and got a message saying you empirejournal objected on copyright or some such grounds. As a result, thousands of freepers don't get to see your articles (having them buried in a thread on some other article, as with this thread, obviously doesn't make the same impact). also, if you'd allowed some of your articles to be posted to FR, they'd still be on the internet now - instead of having been hacked into oblivion on your site, when they're needed most.
