I am NOT making excuses for Mr. Barrow by any means. If he was in Century, Florida and NOT in Flomaton, Alabama please tell me what right did Mr. MrGraw have to cross the state line to obtain Mr. Barrow? NONE! Personally, it could have been just the fact that Mr. Barrow knew he was wanted, seen Mr. McGraw, and knew that Mr. McGraw couldn’t by law cross the state line to obtain him. Rather or not that is a fact none of us will ever know. Either way Mr. McGraw broke the law, just as Mr. Barrow did in Flomaton, Alabama. Does that make it right for Mr. McGraw to take the law in his own hands. I think not! Therefore, if anyone else is held accountable for their actions, so should Mr. McGraw. Just because at one time Mr. McGraw wore a patch on his shirt doesn’t make him special. He should also be help accountable for his actions. So in my opinion, there is NO poor pitiful me for Mr. McGraw, he knew the laws, because that is a part of his job description. Therefore, it only makes him look more like the idiot in this situation in my opinion.

I drove from Brewton to Atmore the other day and things just felt different, better.

Chief Thompson’s administration seems to have ushered in a new era, you can feel it in the air.

I hope they are not too hard on Mr McGraw, give him a chance to go someplace else to start over.

I use to work for this man and after what all the employees had to deal with all I can say is oh how j love karma. Such a lovely lady. McGraw knew what he was doing but failed to follow the rules.. he should.be held accountable just like everyone.else has to be. People who work for the public are there to serve.and.protect.. use ethics and morals. And to show accountability and responsibility.

I have such mixed feelings about this. Officers do have to learn they have rules
they have to go by, or it will always be complete chaos. We wish all officers
were so trust worthy that we could just leave them to do their jobs, BUT
AS THEY ARE HUMAN, WE CAN NOT!

It seems extreme to me that we are prosecuting an officer when the fellow
he was trying to take to jail WAS A WANTED MAN. Then again we must
remember the OFFICER broke the very rules WE are NOT allowed to BREAK,
and WE SHOULD NOT FORGET THIS WAS ALL OVER A MISDEMEANER.

That being said the whole thing sounds extreme and personnal, then again
maybe the officer just didn’t think anyone would care how he got the job done.
