Intoxicated is one thing, domestic battery is another. Stand your ground Sheriff Downey.

Jacob was a cheater, Peter had a temper, David had an affair and conspired to have the husband killed, Noah got drunk, Jonah ran from God, Paul was a murderer, Gideon was insecure, Miriam was a gossiper, Martha was a worrier, Thomas was a doubter, Sarah was impatient, Elijah was moody, Moses stuttered, Zaccheus was short, Abraham was old, and Lazarus was dead�but they were good enough to be called by God. Even Jesus showed a violent temper in the temple. I guess the rest of us just have to be perfect, especially if you're a public servant.

If there was dometich battery or any battery for that matter there would have been charges filed. Should have attended the hearing and maybe you would change you high and mighty opinion.

Confused,

Nothing high and mighty about it. From what I know Mr. Baugh was a good deputy, but I also believe Bob Downey is a good sheriff and will place my trust in his judgement that Jason shouldn't be a deputy any longer.

I also have enough real world experience to know that if the story given by Baugh's defenders is the best face they can put on the situation, it was very, very ugly in reality.
