The following documents have been unsealed by the Federal court system. They represent the affidavits and actions of the government in the case. No charges have been filed at this time. If charges are ever filed, I also remind you that people are presumed innocent until convicted in a court of law.
It’s not easy to publish these documents. I’ve gone back and forth weighing personal friendships and the public’s “right to know”. Now that the documents have been unsealed and are public record, I have to do my job and inform the public.

Editor’s note: The Register & Bee has now disabled their comment section on the story I referenced in this article. Gee, wonder why?
Let’s do another “The Rest Of The Story” to get you more information than a Register & Bee story gives you. I’ve been working on this story for a few days but taking a different angle on it. I’m trying to follow the money and see where that leads me. In the meantime, the newspaper gets an interview with the owners, tosses some softballs and swallows everything given to them making these “property owners” look like people who aren’t that bad after all.
Let’s see some photos of the apartments for another look at the issue…
