Somerset County Sheriff Robert “Bobby” Jones has been accused of being a Weremuskrat by local Princess Anne woman Donna Pusey (Pusey is her actual last name).
Ms. Pusey now fears for her safety after witnessing the transformation of Sheriff Jones from human form to muskrat form on the moonlit night of February 12, 2009.
“He was stinkin’ of drink and slurrin’ and fallin’ about outside my house,” she said.
“I always known them teeth on him was more’n just no corrective braces when he was a little stinker. Well, right there before my eyes them teeth started a growin’ and got longer and he crouched down, sprouted some hair like that Chia Pet on TV, and turned into a god durned muskrat.”
“Must of been that full moon that done it to him. Well, his buck teeth there started workin’ and salivatin’ and his beady little eyes started to fix on me,” she said.
“Critter tried to bowl me over but I known better, got out the way and ran back to the house and called the 911. They told me a Muskrat Catcher sure know what to do with it and they’ll send one right over.”
As usual, The Times on the Ditch, has scrubbed all mention of the incident but OR dredged the journalism from the interweb:
"Sheriff’s accuser seeks charges" (February 21, 2009)
[Donna "Dee" Marie Pusey, 53, of Princess Anne] alleges Somerset County Sheriff Robert N. "Bobby" Jones hit her intentionally with his vehicle sent a letter Friday to police and court officials asking them to file criminal charges in the case.
"I pray for my safety and the truth from this man who believed that because he carries a badge and a gun, his criminal acts are above reproach," she said in the letter.
Maryland State Police began investigating the case Feb. 12 after Pusey called 911 at 6:22 p.m. to report that a man she didn’t know was sitting in his vehicle in front of her apartment on Somerset Avenue.
Since she and her neighbors have been victims of a recent crime spree in the complex, Pusey said she knocked on the car window to ask him what he was doing there.
While she was on the phone with a 911 operator, Pusey alleged Jones put his car in reverse and hit her, knocking her to the ground.
She said Jones pulled forward, backed up and hit her a second time as she was getting up, knocking her down again. (delmarvanow.com)
"Sheriff stays on course as probe into alleged incident continues" (May 13, 2009)
Three months ago Somerset County Sheriff Robert "Bobby" N. Jones was accused of intentionally hitting a woman with his car, but no charges have been filed against him.
"To tell you the truth, I’ve been going along with life as I normally do," said Jones, the county’s sheriff since 1986, who denies all the allegations against him.
The inquiries stem from a night Jones had his car parked outside a Princess Anne apartment complex. [See article above]
She told a Somerset 911 operator that Jones was allegedly so drunk "he can hardly walk." She also alleged Jones smelled strongly of alcohol.
Pusey has also taken other actions to try to spur law enforcement to file charges against Jones. She wrote a letter to Somerset and Wicomico state’s attorneys on Feb. 20.
"I pray for my safety and the truth from this man (Jones) who believed that because he carries a badge and a gun, his criminal acts are above reproach," Pusey wrote in the letter.
Wicomico State’s Attorney Davis Ruark declined to investigate Pusey’s allegations due to his office’s already heavy caseload. (delmarvanow.com)
Wicomico State’s Attorney Davis Ruark declined to investigate Pusey’s allegations… Did you read that?
That’s because Davis Ruark was passed out face first in a lunch plate of alcoholic vomit!
Is there anyone on the Eastern Shore who can attest to the sobriety of anyone amongst these swampy shores?
