You are right - that's where we first met. I have a lot of fond memories of that place, it will always be in my heart. The people that were the cause of it's destruction will have to live with that fact forever. It's funny how some things will come back to haunt people after the deed is done.

We tried but the city had it's mind made up and were not going to change, Why does the political process have to be so crooked. I was in touch with FEMA, SEMA and the Preservation Society, everything was go but the "city" would not budge. I just hate being lied to. The fault and cover up was close to being out in the open..........I think my new name locally is "mudd." kay > -----Original Message----- > From: mocedar-bounces@rootsweb.com > [mailto:mocedar-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Dan Honeycutt > Sent: Friday, March 23, 2007 8:59 PM > To: mocedar@rootsweb.com > Subject: Re: [MOCEDAR] Old Jail is gone > > Shameful.
