Big Pimpin in the Coal Country County Cesspool

I didn’t get to mention this myself yesterday because I was in meetings all day and barely had time to get online. But this is too amazing a story for me to pass up. Hero Sheriff elected to clean up the county drug problem shot dead in his car outside the County Court House while eating his lunch. But it turns out the Sheriff was probably a serial rapist who allegedly raped his killer years before he gunned him down. And as for the cleaning up the drugs, well, he was a big user and apparently neck deep in drug running himself. And as for the campaign, well, when the guy who produced his campaign signs asked to be paid, the Sheriff had him arrested for drug dealing. And frankly, it gets freakier from there since it’s not really clear that Sheriff Eugene Crum was the biggest crook in county law enforcement. The big remaining question is whether the Coen Brothers or Tarantino write and direct the film. Check out our full report here.
