Midnight bust nabs alleged drug dealer; cocaine involved

SALINE CO.—A familiar face in Harrisburg is behind bars once again after Saline County lawmen were busy late last night into the wee hours of this morning capturing a man they have been on the lookout for for the past couple of days.

Cecil Gulley from March 2010 arrest

Sources close to the family have informed Disclosure that Cecil Gulley, 50, was taken into custody at his daughter’s home located at 100 East Park St., Harrisburg at midnight (01.21.11) by members of the Southern Illinois Drug Task Force and Harrisburg Police Department.

While members of the family voiced displeasure at the hour of the arrest, police sources indicate the timing was nothing more than happenstance.

“Gulley has been fairly elusive over the past several months during the investigation leading up to this arrest,” the source said. “The warrant came down a couple days ago and this just happened to be the first opportunity to pin him down.”

Lawmen at the scene said Gulley offered no resistance with the exception of “running his mouth” as one of the officers later described. (Apparently there was no use of his infamous walking cane, as happened with a previous arrest last March after mob action at his house).

He was taken into custody by Illinois State Police Inspector David Blazier and booked on formal charges including two counts of Class X felony Unlawful Delivery of Cocaine; one count of Class 1 felony Unlawful Delivery of Methamphetamine and Unlawful Delivery of Hydrocodone.

Sources indicate that Gulley also had pseudoephedrine in his possession at the time of his arrest but has not been charged for it as of yet.

Gulley is well-known for his varied criminal history in Harrisburg, as well as his ‘friendliness’ with other well-known criminal names in Saline County, including Arnulfo Fonseca. In fact, when Fonseca was up on murder charges in 2007, Gulley, then in DOC, wrote to Fonseca sister Connie, opining on his views of the Jade Winston murder in Carrier Mills, a murder which remains unsolved but which the finger of blame has has been pointed at other ‘burg lowlifes, the Curtises, Jason and John C. Jr. (John C. having yet to be sentenced for the killing of Toby Jump; see related posts).

Gulley is currently being held in the Saline County Detention Center on $150,000 cash bond.

    Oh yea…Jack, tell Ang there is a “special” running the first of Feb at the EL in Marion at Dillards. :) Ask for “Janet”…she’s the best.

  2. CMHS1980

    Someone earlier suggested saying something good about Cecil. He is good for posts on this site. According to my phone this story has gotten 121 posts in about 8 1/2 hours. Is that a record?

  3. CMHS1980

    Make that 9 1/2 hours.

  4. try to be nice

    Cecil is a guy with a history that is difficult to overcome, nice guy, in my opinion, but history is a bitch.

  5. CMHS1980

    A history that he created himself, and it doesn’t look like he is trying very hard to overcome it to me. You really can see the good in anybody can’t you.

  6. goneforgood

    Attention Gulley Family: We will make you a deal. As long as none of you break any laws after 10 PM at night, we won’t arrest any of your family members at Midnight. Give me a Freakin’ break.

  7. @WINWKR: thanks! Marion isn’t as far, maybe there will be less grumbling that way…. ;)

  8. CatchMeIfUCan

    CLOSER NOW
    Leaving Albion after doing some cheking Headed for Calhoun here theres good hunting up there

    • @CatchMe(&string u up by the….nvm): Can’t I even work out and take a shower without your dumb ass chiming in all the time?

      Okay windbag, if you have to, bring it! I have TRULY been bored out of my skull being snowed in here and have had nothing but time on my hands…

      Listen VERY carefully make sure you take the second road east after the second Parkersburg curve, that should be Otterbein Lane, go all the way down past the farmland, over one bridge between two large hills, up the other side and I am the second house on the left. If you go to the stop sign, you’ve gone too far, not like you haven’t already.

      Make sure you don’t approach from the southeast as all the tree-lines have been cleared and I can see from upstairs four miles in that direction. Don’t even park your car that far away and walk, as I will see you coming.

      Don’t approach straight from the south as they call that wolf holler for a reason, if you don’t believe me step out of your broken dick vehicle and listen to the howls. Those critters stay hungry and are the reason why all our cats are INDOOR felines.

      Be careful if you come through the woods that surround the house from the east and northeast because, as I think I told the county sheriff, I don’t know if I found all of granddad’s old metal traps. So if you insist and hear a metal clink and experience sudden and excruciating pain in your ankle, don’t pull away as you will only succeed in pulling your foot the rest of the way off. Just moan in pain clearly and I will be there to “help you” as quickly as I can. I did three years in pre-med and I have actually helped with an amputation. It was in sterile conditions, but I’ll do the best I can by flashlight and a field knife.

      That leaves the westward approach which I can see at least three miles so you can’t actually drive over either of those hills I told you about in paragraph two, sorry to be confusing. At a temperature at a balmy eight degrees, if you hurry maybe you can get to me before you freeze to death. That is, IF I am actually in the house and not snuggled down in waiting for you in one of those goofy arctic snow-hooches the military taught us to construct in order to survive extreme temps in. And I do need to warn you about the several old wells out there…they tried filling them in two years ago after we lost cousin Jimmy (very sad) but the damn things are really deep and the subsidence (big word, I know, look it up) just keeps on. The snow gives it the appearance that they’re filled in…all I’m saying is, good luck with that.

      If all this seems too much for your sorry worthless ass, then you may want to just go home because, well…… I have been VERY bored being snowed in and in need of some excitement so if you insist on dragging your druggie ass out here by all means come on pard! At least the temps are such that if there should be some unfortunate accident once you cross the numerous No Trespass signs that surround the property your carcass won’t start to swelling and stink up the holler in a couple hours and will keep just fine til morning when sheriff Hires can come by with those fine gentlemen from the Illinois State Police Crime Lab and use their hatchets to remove your sorry ass from my yard.

      Be advised I don’t play well with others and have difficulty stopping something once it starts.

      Hope to see you around……..Pard

      • Okay, just an update….there’s been NOBODY go by on our road for the past half hour; Jack’s out in the snow hooch texting me telling me he’s drumming his fingers on the AR-15 bored out of his wits; the wolves are particularly rowdy this evening; and visibility is every bit of three miles.

        He just sent this text:

        “Y-A-W-N is there NEthing goin on on the site?”

        He doesn’t have an internet chip in his Blackberry; that slot is being used for a video chip hooked up to the monitor for what he calls our ‘perimeter surveillance equipment.’

        And he just sent this:

        “NE chance of me getn NE cookie dough this late @nite?”

        I don’t have the heart to tell him we’re out of eggs.

  9. Top Cat

    CatchmeIffUCan ,you are windier than a drunken sailor.
    You have been nowhere and done nothing.
    Never have/never will.

  10. Can I come over and play? Please? Pick me, pick me, nobody ever picks me!!!

    • @misanthrope: I think Jack is coming back in the house. But next time he needs to pull snow hooch surveillance, I shall have him call you FIRST!

      • He’s in. I’m going to bed. This has been real. Not real anything; just real. I’ll give admin back to Jack.

        Gnight!

        • Jack from Frozen Snow Hooch Command, checking in for my final report (at least I THINK it’s final report; who knows):

          The entire time I was out there, there has been no movement on our road, none, zero, zilch, nada, negative, the air has barely moved. I have been comforted by my trusted Blackberry, my trusty weapon, and my trusty bag of Little Debbie snack cakes & craisin power bars. The temp inside the hooch was a balmy 12 degrees with the aid of 1 survival candle. The only incident to report is a near fatal encounter with one raccoon that had to weigh every bit of 30 lbs. As I was testing out my night vision goggles i spotted said raccoon dragging my ditty bag with Little Debbies and craisin power bars out of the hooch & begin to take it across the road at which time i picked up a large stick and threw it directly in front of the raccoon, which then turned & ran directly toward me with the bag in his mouth. When critter got close enough i sprang on him with extreme prejudice, and wrestled the goodies away. The raccoon in question made good his escape before i could extinguish his miserable little life. And now I’m going to go see if there is cookie dough, although all was dark when I went through the kitchen….

  11. iptf

    Has any1 ever thought that just maybe cecil just misses. The man on man love he gets be passed around the prison lol that may be why he uses. A cain to much love n he has already got from bubba

  12. Treez

    Catch does NOT have this magical ability. Catch does not even have wheels. Catch is yanking chains. Catch is stranded. no worries Jack, he’s human like the rest of us. No amazing abilities, unless of course you count the time he landed his wife in Jail and kids in DCFS for a domestic dispute then turned around and married her to “look” like they are a proper little family and married her to try to get the kids back. Good one there catch. My advise-Next time a Gulley kicks your ass, DONT call the police. They WILL arrest. Call all of your supporters!!!

  13. Catchmeisapunk

    Finally came back to check and see how catch faired on finding the Howser compound. My guess is he started out and got lost in the country or decided well since I’m in the sticks I might as well “cook” something. Then probably smoked his foil shiny side up which would explain all his stupidity from yesterday’s rants. Catch what exactly will u say when u are caught?

    • Yeah, what a pansyass… friggin Rex Robinson actually drove by the Browns house when he was threatening us…this guy probably never once left his chair. What a WUSS. At least I had some fun out in the snow though.

  14. Sweet&Sour

    OMG! I signed off waaaaayyy to early last night!!! Good Job, Jack & Ang. Was telling hubby about You & Jacks experience and all of us giving Catch so much hell..When I was reading you & Jacks comments from last night, we have done nothing but laugh our A$$’s since….OMG…TOO GOOD!!!! :)

  15. Sweet&Sour

    We were laughing so hard, I’m telling ya. You go in such detail that it’s hard not to actually picture what & how you’re doing it. The raccoon part was hilarious! Well, it all was. As I was reading Ang’s post back to ya & she said she didn’t have the heart to tell you there were no eggs, I could tell she was being funny, yet genuine since you were out there in combat mode to protect your family! :) At least, Catch did make for an entertaining day yesterday though….kept me from being bored to death too….lol

    • I’m not making it up about the raccoon, either…you turn your back around here for one minute and those damn things have EVERYTHING…four years ago they were teaming up to steal the chickens. The neighbors (my relatives altho I am wont to admit that) were tending the chickens and so instead of shoring up the coop, one of em waited on the back deck, then took out a coon as he was dragging a chicken across the roof of the building. Used a shotgun, got the coon (also got the chicken), got the roof, got the overhang of the front door to the coop….we came out here the next day, 98 degrees, dead coon laying in the yard, chicken in its mouth (the rest of the coons ran away) and the blowflies were settling in on all carcasses and the blood congealing on the building. We were able to clean it up—shore up the building, which prevented anything from getting in OR out—spray the blood and guts with the hose (which garnered gripes, as it was a hot dry summer and the old man was worried about the well)—and that shit stopped, but the front of the building still bears a dent where the shot hit it. Talk about overkill.

  16. Sweet&Sour

    :) Deff overkill, but at least they never came back! Yeah, that’s the bad thing about shotgun shells, they will get more than just the intended target if the target is small and around any buildings or vehicles. So, THANKS, I got to get an air of that nasty smell that comes along with dead carcasses & heat!! UGH!!! We have critters that we deal with out here too. Hubby has had some funny experiences(well, funny to me because I was inside watching)as well. Only thing, he would be inside the big garage and his only weapon, so he wouldn’t tear anything up with a tool, was the water hose. It allowed him to stay far enough away to run em out too. He had one encounter with a HUGE possum that freaked him out because by the time he seen it, he was right upon it & it let out the biggest hiss at him..well, you know what possums do. Another time was a mama raccoon & her babies inside the same garage. I heard some loud banging outside, got up to go look, there he stood outside of the garage with hose in hand, beating the outside of the garage to run em out and protect himself with the water in case they ran toward him..poor guy. But, your story of the raccoon last night made me think of the movie about “The Griswalds”.(sp)

  17. CatchMeIfUCan

    Jack Howser is insaine You cant jump in sombody’s car just because their parked at the end of your road at 3 in the morning than hold a flashlight in their face and tell tham to go away Thats illegal Thats a crime I have rights to you no! You gonna pay Your sick dude

  18. Sweet&Sour

    Jack…OMG! He’s up! And made another direct threat to you!!!! I was just gonna ask you if you felt the need to have the Sheriff check out your property in the event that Catch froze somewhere on or near your dwelling. ;)

  19. Sweet&Sour

    I wonder if he pissed his pants?

  20. Sweet&Sour

    I understand…he shizzed em…what a scumbag this guy is..

  21. Dennis J. Bridwell

    Poor ol’ Catch probably can navigate himself to very few places. They probably consist of the liquor store, his local meth dealer’s house, the Dept. of Human Resources, the grocery store, the convenience store, and a few doper buddy’s houses. I seriously doubt he could find his way to a house in another county, he is simply too dumb for that.

  22. Sweet&Sour

    Dennis, Yep, I know what you’re sayin’. He does seem to be a lil under the charts of knowledge, doesn’t he? He makes threats and then tries to make it seem as though he is the victim? The DRUGS have definitely caused him to have some very wild hallucinations! Seems like he took a trip and never left the farm. ;)

  23. Sweet&Sour

    Jack, those of US who are YOU & ANGELA’S supporters knew you would set that dumbass up! Well, he actually set his own stupid ass up. He started out yesterday with his threats to you guys and I really do not think he could comprehend how many supporters & friends you guys have on here. I kept waiting on “his” friends to chime in, but…..they never did..

  24. Treez

    I would like to know more details of Jack putting Catch/Ken his place….

  25. Treez

    Well, 2 things are for sure, 1 that they ARE more stupid than they sound on here and 2, Jack can back up EVERYTHING he says! Sounds like you DO have a good eye on your property! lol

  26. Sweet&Sour

    Treez, Catch has been making threats here on the site since yesterday…then made another one today. I mean, really, does this dumbass not know that that in and of itself is illegal? I’m with you here…they do keep a good eye out on their property.

  27. Treez

    It’s only a matter of time before he’s sitting right next to dear Ol dad-in-law. Especially if they keep up the late night creeping!!

  28. Treez

    Poor “Treez” has dealt with the idiots too! NOT by choice.

  29. Sweet&Sour

    Jack..I had it figured out too.. =( Told hubby about it. I just didn’t want to say much here on the site..I think alot of people have had to deal with them and NOT by choice! I’ll e-mail ya soon & let you know how we had to AND not by choice. Still, one of my comments is in moderation? It’s on another article but..I dunno

  41. Moonrner53

    Welcome! You will read the truth on this site.We have our own comments about the subject we are posting about.But you will find them here first before MSM.
    @Jack did you get the pics?

  42. Dennis J. Bridwell

    The family that sells together, cells together.

  43. iptf

    Jack i got to call bullshit on the thing between u and catch if would of realy happen you would of had him locked up

    • iptf: within the next 24 hours I can put up a scanned pdf right here on the website of a letter submitted to me from the Illinois Appellate Prosecutor’s office dated March 8, 2008, wherein they state that they will not prosecute anyone committing a crime against me in Richland County. They submitted that letter because our duly-elected prosecutor David “worthless” Hyde refused to prosecute a crime committed against my property in November 2007, and we had to take it to a higher authority, who absolved themselves of any responsibility. So, WHO am I going to call if there’s a crime committed against me or my property? NO ONE. And if someone wants to bring charges against me for what I allegedly did to them, all I have to do is show that letter, which goes to state of mind….because I KNOW I’m on my own out here, therefore, I have a defense.

      I’m not interested in spending too much time discussing what did or did not happen. Just sayin.

  44. slamdunc

    iptf; Jack might not have been the ball-grabber in question. As he said, the trespasser that was on his property doesn’t know what anyone looks like up there.
    Besides, sometimes taking the law into your own hands (pardon the pun) is more effective.

  45. Sweet&Sour

    slamdunc, very true! Someone had to be taking the pictures and Jack usually does that. Sounds like numbnuts (Catch) was in the wrong place at the wrong time, huh? 3:00 a.m.???? LOL.. Way to go Disclosure Supporters!! :)

  46. Top Cat

    I have been trying to get Jack and Ang. to right a book about the things that go on.This chapter could be titled “The Nut Cracker”!!!!

  47. Sweet&Sour

    Top Cat, LOL…That would be a very good chapter to read, wouldn’t it? Jack did say he was gonna put up some pics….however, he had some more digging to do. And you think me & HHANNAH scare you…. :)

  48. Sweet&Sour

    Sorry, I think that was pics that Moonrner was referring to that he had sent to Jack.
