Cemetery Destruction Plea Deal – All Charges Dropped Except Count 1

If this crime would have been committed in”Shelbyvile” this deal would not have been cut. Ruth Woolery and her puppeteer don’t care about Shelby county as they claim but rather to continue to serve the corrupt county seat. Does not take much to see everyone benefitting is from “Shelbyvile”.
The two groups that are really one group don’t want outsiders who won’t serve their purpose. Sadly the county lost when Rob Hanlon left but “Shelbyvile” will be served.
I hope citizens who live in the outskirts of the county rise up and demand what we deserve, which is true representation and not the e “Shelbyvile” special!
Ruth Woolery will be the worst state’s attorney we have seen and just might put the fork in Shelby county.

For this complete sweetheart deal, Mr. Decker was represented by Thomas O. Finks. I’ve been told that Mrs. Woolery had Mr. Finks serve on her “hiring committee” for potential ASAs. So why didn’t she seek the appointment of a special prosecutor to avoid the appearance of impropriety? Did she even think about that issue?. How many more sweetheart deals will Mr. Finks obtain?

While I was the Shelby County State’s Attorney, I refused to have any plea with Mr. Decker that did not include DOC time and $20,000 for the restitution amount. Restitution is mandatory, how did the restitution go all the way down to $2,000? What was represented to the court as to the actual costs of the 100+yrs old headstones. I was clearly familiar with the facts which including his “booze crusin” and the fact that the vehicle license plate was left at the scene of the crime. I would rather lose that case at trial than give that kind of deal. There was an admission that he was driving that vehicle that later that same evening (after the travel through the cemetery) crashed in a separate location. What was the great defense? There was no defense. Not factually and not legally? The state could have a monkey could try that case and win. Nothing articulated to me suggested such a slight sentence, but she forgot the slap on the wrist. This was not Mr. Decker’s first DUI. Perhaps a proper inquiry of Ms. Woolery is how many prior DUI’s was Mr. Decker previously convicted. When he kills someone, that blood will be on Mrs. Woolery’s hands. This stinks like a rotting corpse. And Dr. Boehm’s web page is likely silent or filled with another illogical missive.

Wow, no real justice for 16 people in Moweaqua. I guess the 16 individuals can sue for damages but they really shouldn’t have to. The action by Decker is outrageous.

Dogs: there is a typo “Decker pleaded guilty to County 1” pretty sure you meant count 1

Who was his attorney? F. Lee Bailey? No money for damages. Where is the hoopla against the SA by Dr Boehm ? Crickets!!
