Well i see that now this poor guy is getting blamed for the for the school nueres getting laid off,I think you need to look at your govenor for the layoffs not the deputy, and also look at the man that owns a company in Florida.

I am sick and tired, everytime I turn to the news, a law enforcement officer is being arrested or is under indictment. Is there not one honest person out there? It is time to clean house and restore public confidence in our public safety program.

From reading the comments it appears that if enough people break the law, that makes it alright.
Are the same ones that are saying it’s acceptable to dodge taxes complaining about losing the nurses in the school system?
Just wondering out loud.

Hmmm a political manuever to get more votes if you’re running for Sheriff? Seems to me that more Leo’s have been arrested and fired in the last six months than the last four yrs and during an election yr. Imagine that. His way of saying, I cleaned up the communities and my own sheriffs office so vote for me?

I have been following this story on North Escambia and it seems to me that one of our Deputies has a red dot on his back. Here you have a man Joe Clark that says he bought the truck from the deputy for 20,000.00 and then goes down and registered it at the tag office for 10,000.00 and then tells law enforcement that the deputy told him to say he paid 10,000.00 for it. It seems to me that Mr Clark should be the one answering the question of not telling the truth. It has been several years since i have bought a car but I think you have to sign and swear that what you put on the paper at the tag office is true. I think the States Attorney should be looking at all involved not just one and make all involved pay what they should. This just my thought

All those so called “criminal charges” seem like a grudge on someone’s part. It seems the whole situation could have been handled with sufficient fines & paperwork corrections.

Isn’t it amazing that in this one transaction: The original seller did not complete the title requirements, the purchaser did not and the last purchaser was very happy with the information shown on the title. However, only one person was charged in this process. Sounds like a witch hunt. In this case either ALL responsible should be charged or those involved should be able to pay the penalty for untimely title transter and the amount of sales due on their purchase based on the full price paid. I know first hand that this is common practice. Again, ask why was Lt. Grice singled out?

Will be interesting to see how this plays out. The statue of limitations for 1st degree misdemeanors is 2 years and 2nd degree misdemeanors are 1 year. It appears from the information released that both charges had expired before he was charged. Sounds like a little head hunting from the Sheriffs Office since that’s where the complaint started before it was turned over to FDLE. Sounds like Mr Grice may have had friends that the current admin’ didn’t agree with.

Hope FDLE didn’t spend a lot of time and money on this. He was wrong in what did—but how many of us have done something along the same line? If you are having work done and you ask how much it will cost and you are ask in return “will you be paying in cash or check” you’ll find there are two prices. To do a full investigation on this sound like busy work or “pay back”.
