City Council Candidate Arrested

[King Kong]

Forrest County

Lajuana Richardson, 30, 200 block of Columbia Street; Jailed Wensday on false pretense charge.[/b]

[King Kong]

I saw this in the Hattiesburg American. I guess she is trying to get some free publicity.

[F150]

I've heard getting arrested is bad for a campaign. :)

[King Kong]

I agree. It looks like things are really getting interesting.

[King Kong]

Here is the link to the arrest report.

" Richardson will when in ward #1 and it will be 3 blacks and 2 whites on the council if that. so get in where you fit in computer politicians.. there is alot of work for you to do from your web sites.. in the meantime , me, and my folks will be in the streets getting it on...

It was only after reading that the light bulb went off.

who is richardson running against?

[King Kong]

Scooter Borgman
Larry Carroll
Kim Bradley

[thetruth13]

Ok. Is Eddie Holloway running against Debra Denard Delgado?

[King Kong]

Yes he is.

[thetruth13]

Good. I hope he beats her. I know each personally and Eddie Holloway is an educated man who makes educated decisions. My personal experiences with Delgado have shown otherwise. At one time she had warrants for her arrest and a suspended driver's license. She also falls back on the race issue to much.

[King Kong]

I think they are Ward 2. Is that right?

[ynotme297]

i think that eddie holloway is a very fine and educated man. he has done a great job in the past, and i know he will continue to do a great job. with eddie on the council, it will stop a lot of the bickering.

[thetruth13]

Yeah, I know Eddie and have dealt with him on some things. He's a man you can actually talk to about things because he listens. He also understands things like city budgets and how city governments work.

I read in the paper today where Lajuana Richardson, candidate for City Council Ward 1, was charged and released. She was arrested on felony charge Wensday and jailed for false pretense charge for providing false information to the police.
Some how she got the charge reduced to a misdemeanor and she was released.
When she was booked into the Forrest County Hilton she listed her address as 200 block of Columbia. Then the article goes on to say that when she qualified as a Democratic candidate in May, her address was listed in the 2800 block of Hillside.
She is the only Democrat on the ballot in that Ward.

[King Kong]

She hasn't even made to the rimary yet and she is already making a mess. I can't wait for her to release her public lie, I meant to say statement.

[usm_designer]

haha

[King Kong]

I think this is the second time she was arrested for false pretense.

[King Kong]

She is running for City Council for Ward 1. I also heard that she has never even lived in Ward 1. Don't know if it is true.

[thetruth13]

Stay tuned for the arrest and conviction of another City Council Member--Betsy Rowell!

Don't feed the troll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hattiesburg's Democratic Party leaders said a candidate for Hattiesburg's Council Ward 1 who was arrested two weeks ago will remain on the May 3 primary ballot.

That's very interesting, lack of choices maybe?


Another website I've found is http://www.shemperforward3.com

[King Kong]

I am really suprised to see so many candidates for city council with websites. I really like it.

[aaron]

and none of these people link back to my hattiesburg, I wonder why? *grins*

[aaron]

I doubt these guys are getting many visits anyway. Unless you use a hub site like this one or some kind of directory, not many people are going to find you on such short notice. None of these guys sites are even in Google yet.
