Does that mean no one escaped, or does it me Teen Challenge just didn't report it?

I had a comment on this Danny but it has been removed. Political Correctness has taken the facts out of the news.

Danny...tell everyone that you love who lives between Georgia Baptist Children's Home and the Upson County line to keep their doors locked. There is nothing so sweet as feeling safe in your own neighborhood.

All you folks settle down. They were having a car wash at Teen Challenge. That is where the deputy cars were going.

Sheila, do you know who donated the Molar Tire Shine for the Teen Challenge Car Wash. Appears there is a 35 gal drum missing.

I am sure it was not Wal-Mart in Thomaston. That is where the teens were taken to beg money when they first migrated to the mountain. That poor FAG in Griffin......we should take up a love offering for them.

I bet it was in one of those little brown bags like the "ghosts of commissioners past" found when they approved Teen Challenge.

I really wish one of the ex commissioners who approved Teen Challenge would email me and explain the justification to me. I just want to know: Since they pay zero taxes, why are Pike taxpayers obligated to pay for their tax paid benefits? Example...support from the sheriff's department.

On 11-14-05 the Church@ Grace Hill sold 36.1 acres with building to Gray Edward Neal for $350,000. On the same day Gray Edward Neal added Beverly G. to his estate, reason being, Joint Tenacy.

On 11-30-06, Gray Edward Neal gave the land to FAG of Griffin Georgia Inc., reason being, Love and Affection.

On 12-01-06, THE NEXT DAY, FAG gave the land to Teen Challenge of Florida, reason being, Love and Affection.

Those mean old people of FAG are just mighty rude to give away that gift of $350,000 after Gray Edward Neal loved and affected them so much.

Face it folks, things are not in black and white here...just a bunch of Gray. (Edward Neal)

Now Florida owns a parcel of 36.1 acres ($350,000) TAX FREE land at the South end of Pike County.

With so much love and affection floating around, the taxpayers of Pike were screwed.

Florida sent a note of appreciation.
It said, "Thanks Suckers."

Another amazing fact:
The Pike County commission voted 3-1 January 27, 2009 to approve a special zoning exception to allow Teen Challenge to operate a boarding facility, school and ministry for troubled teenage boys here.

FAG was given the land and gave it to Florida three years before the two worthless commissioners of 2009 (not Tommy) voted for a special exemption to let the crooks in.

They had faith in the future, didn't they? Especially after being rejected on their first deal.
