Being a former resident and taxpayer of Ocean City and Worcester County, Joel Todd has his head up his butt!
Granted, Wicomico County has a very bad track record. However, Worcester County covers things up like there's no tomorrow! You didn't read about this in the Daily Slime. A few years ago on Memorial Day Weekend, one of the MAJOR Banks on West Ocean City was robbed. Not your typical robbery though. This robbery consisted of waiting till Sunday Night after all the Outlet Mall money had been deposited and a van pulled up to the Bank and put up a black canvas room/tarp butted against the deposit box and the robbers simply used a welding torch and cut the entire deposit box out of the wall and took off with millions of dollars.
Now why didn't anyone read about this in the Daily Slime? Because Worcester County is the Master at keeping crime away from the Press because they're a "Family Resort."
Between Jennifer and I we have 5 boys. One of hers and one of mine are the same age and were living with us at our home in Ocean City. They were 16 years old at the time and they could get their hands on all the pot they could ever dream of in Ocean City! At 17 years old they worked in Ocean City and if you worked at Phillips you could cash your paychecks at the liquor store next door and even run a tab for liquor. That's right, you heard me, you could run a tab for liquor at 16 years old at the liquor store next door.
The authorities had been warned about such a thing and guess what, NOTHING happened about it. Unless one of them were willing to go in there in a sting operation, Ocean City wasn't going to touch it. We had children getting their hands on illegal drugs and alcohol at any given moment and becoming addicted to such bad habits and NOTHING at all was done about it! This went on fron 16 to now 21 years old.
The stories my Boys could tell all of you about Ocean City would simply blow you away but if you could fantasize about the wildest things happening under the sun out there, it's happening!
Joel Todd can play the game of it's happening everywhere else but not here is full of crap, period! When's the last time you read about a couple being killed, cut up into a million pieces and then dumped in trash cans throughout the City? Not in Wicomico County but it sure has happened in Worcester. There's LOTS of crime that happens there you NEVER hear or read about.
I'm not at all trying to say one County is better than the other. However, I will say FROM EXPERIENCE, Worcester County is very corrupt when it comes to the exposure of criminal activity and it's no wonder Chief Webster has learned to not report things and keep his Staff away from places like the Old Mall where their stats could go up even higher if he arrested more people there.
No, Joel, Worcester County has simply mastered the game on what to say and what not to say. As transient as that County is, you're full of crap!
