The guy here got caught when he went big. I think the amount was $50,000 or so, but I understand he had been at it for years; they just could not gather enough evidence to convict.
But then they did and they dragged him off to the slammer. A lot of folks were somewhat sad about it and made comments like 'He did so much good for the area' but that is beside the point and you don't need to be a criminal to do good for an area.
This guy was no Robin Hood and if there were not tons of money in it for him he would have never done it, but there was and he did and since he has been out of our hair I have noticed things are starting to get a lot better around here.
Small town folks have a saying: There's nothing wrong with this place that a few heart attacks would not cure. There was no heart attack involved here, but things have sure gotten better since Mr. Big was removed from the scene.
