THIS MONTH’S PRINT HEADLINES, MAY-JUNE 2012
Here are your print headlines for the newest print version of Disclosure, on stands beginning today, 05.07.12 and continuing through Tuesday, 05.08.12! Print headlines in bold are preceded by the dateline (where the story occurred) and followed by a brief synopsis of the article.
Nicole & Brandon Jenkins, May 2, 2012, on the way home from Olney.
RICHLAND CO.—Brandon Jenkins NOT GUILTY; stinging indictment on prosecutor as real criminals are free: Trial coverage/wrap of the big trial that took up almost two weeks here in Richland County….and all the things we DIDN’T say on podcast or online. And you know us….that’s a LOT.
U.S. DISTRICT COURT/BRIDGEPORT—City sued x2: Two Lawrence County men sue the city of Bridgeport as well as lots of individuals…..why? Because Mayor Max Schauf is a corrupt public official, that’s why.
XENIA—Firemen resign, rescind, over problem trustee: This is an unbelievable story of how much trouble one self-aggrandizing public official can cause for an entire village of people, in little Xenia in southwestern Clay County.
HARDIN CO.—Suspended over post on Facebook: Two Hardin County Schools Seniors let their feelings be known on Facebook, and they’re suspended, with one facing removal of the Salutatorian honor at graduation. The big question, of course, isn’t “why are school officials snooping around these girls’ Facebook pages?” but rather, “Just how much time are school admin spending online, and is this during school hours?”
Dee Burgin
EDGAR CO.—County has its own ‘Fast & Furious’: As if things couldn’t get any worse for Deputy Dee Burgin (sued in federal court, wife files for divorce, house up for sale, girlfriend reportedly pregnant, attempt to scare Disclosure into not writing about him any more backfires badly), now documents have been turned up that show he was illegally purchasing confiscated weapons. I think we’ll rename him “Duh” Burgin.
LAWRENCE CO.—Appearances made in murder-for-hire case: Tyler McQueen’s bond has been reduced. Helen Marie Westall is still acting googly-eyed in court. Nothing much moving forward in the case of the deceased Bob Westall….except there are still people who believe Tyler is being framed.
Caleb Jones
GALLATIN CO.—Gun threat alleged at area school: The incident involving Caleb Jones, including specific wording on the charges, which is so “legalese” that it’s surprising anyone knows what’s going on.
CLAY CO.—Another civil suit filed in DUI death: Mrs. Katherine Brooks is trying to collect at least her funeral expenses for Mr. Ray Dean Brooks, who died in a car-motorcycle accident last summer. The other driver was Howard Weidner; Katherine has filed suit against him as of last November, now she’s doing Dram Shop.
HARRISBURG—Punches reported in Poor Boys parking lot: Most folks didn’t believe it when authorities said they were gonna crack down on fights at Harrisburg bars. This incident is why.
LAWRENCE CO.—Charged with ripping head off of a bunny: Yes, it was a LIVE bunny. No, it wasn’t an act a la Ozzy Osbourne. It’s a dude who KEEPS getting in trouble, and no one’s doing a thing about it.
SALINE CO.—Narcotic agents workin’ tha ‘burg close in on drug runner moving cannabis, cocaine and X: This is one of those detailed, interesting dope bust stories that can only be found in Saline County….
HAMILTON CO.—Lakey’s Creek near McLeansboro still haunted by Illinois’ own Headless Horeseman ghost (this is a piece written by our own legends and lore expert, Michael Kleen)
MARION—Subterfuge or clerical error in senior citizen’s loss of farm?: A story of rottenness in Williamson County that’s been going on for YEARS…..
HARDIN CO.—Charged after allegedly holding woman at gunpoint: The wrap-up and official charges of Ray Dutton’s little dustup last month in Cave.
SALINE CO.—Fort’s sister continues to relate: “This IS my life, to get you out of jail”: More of Todd Fort’s phone calls……
CRAWFORD CO.—Strangulation tops violent docket sheet: A roundup of the creeps and crims in Crawford.
LAWRENCE CO.—Dope dominates Law docket: Well, they don’t call it “Lawrence Vegas” for nothing…
SALINE CO.—Conviction for John B.: Mr. Jones. Not going to prison any time soon. Not doing much of anything except playing golf, from what we hear….but hey, we tried.
OLNEY—City moves toward final budget approval: The city that doesn’t do any kind of crime scene investigation and subsequently helps the state lose cases has its hands full with budget talks, people with allergies suffering from burning leaves, and Brian James O’Neill, Jr., the increasingly-insipid idiot of Olney.
WHITE CO.—Repeat offenders busted after shopping trip: Moral of this story: don’t buy pseudoephedrine in Indiana and bring it back to Illinois to cook off a batch.
CRAWFORD CO.—Delivers weed to cops…twice: Yes, this story is indeed about someone who is as stupid as the headline makes them sound.
WABASH CO.—Crime fam gets one sentenced to five: The Eckiss boyz. One down, one to go.
VOICE OF THE PEOPLE: A mess in Crawford; Clay Co. continues to rip off fathers and their pocketbooks; Mother with a mission in Gallatin Co Schools; WHAT is going on in the village of Galatia; Outrage over Earp hangers-on, proclivities; MORE input into village of Galatia; Corruption in the Illinois State Police; Ways to help the Jenkins family; Sometimes the letters just break our hearts.
COLUMNS
SURLY & UNCOOPERATIVE (Jack): It’s time to pay closer attention to the elected folk
ICY (Ang): The daily onslaught on freedoms hits too close
PROSE & CONS (Bubba): A tattered tale of quick-roast chicken…& boy (Editor’s note: this is one of the funniest damn columns I’ve EVER read…you’ll get a big kick out of it!)
KEEPIN IT KLEEN (Michael): An American Spring: Uprising of ‘occupiers’ coming?
ASK MIKE (Mike Drum, new columnist): New column like a paranormal ‘Dear Abby’
BACK OVER YOUR TALES: This is a must-read for anyone interested in the veracity of our work. It was five years ago this month that we wrote about Raymond Martin running drugs, namely pot, throughout Gallatin County. This was a follow-up article to the one about the “drug highway” that we’d produced some months before about Raymondo, one that got our product thrown out of Shawneetown. Of course, just because we were no longer writing about Raymondo didn’t mean he stopped running his pot. Everyone found out two years later to the month. Everything else in BOYT is valid, too, as is what we produce today. The moral of the story is this: Don’t diss us. We don’t just up and write random shit. We are as careful as situations allow us to be in learning the facts, presenting them, and following up. People like Raymondo strutted around and bitched about how we just “make this shit up,” and people believed him…for about two years. So look around you. The ones who are strutting and crowing the loudest are probably going to be the ones featured in upcoming articles….because they’re likely the ones who have the most to hide.

I love seeing the pictures of Brandon and his wife. You can tell just from pictures she isn’t letting him out of her sight or even out of arms reach right now. It is so sweet! I am happy for both of them and hope that they continue to live a very happy life back in Texas.
“$3.5 Million Dollar Hyde Diet” works, apparently. Both be-yoo-ti-ful Texans are more glamorous than ever before after shucking a few in an unintended manner.
People who successfully lose weight via any method and manner can often sell how-to a Diet Book to hit the NY Times Bestseller list.
Royalties could defray against legal costs that caused stomach to tie in knots and throat to close off, combined with jail food…resulting in being “Losers” on the bathroom scale, while eventual winners with Scales of Justice.
Also proposed Jenkins’ Diet Book could be titled “The Earp Diet”..with a subtitle “The URP diet which has nothing to do with puke-up-your-sox after eating purging by ‘urping’ it all up as bulimics do… Many local y people were left feeling pretty “GAGGY” as this debacle went down.
I think “The Divorce Diet” will remain more popular amongst menfolk….who should’ve seen THAT coming when the old lady started dropping weight before the legal papers were served, lol, so should’ve hadda clue what was a-coming.
That nickname for Dee was given in high school many years ago.
…and freedom for the fine Mr. Jenkins,
what were those inbred earps thinking’?
so a dumbass got shot,
in a motel parking lot
’cause some skanky ol sluts had been drinkin’?
…back to Texas for Brandon and Nicole,
compensation for time that they stole,
is surely forthcoming after O’Gara’s drumming
of the collective prosecution assholes.
Best of luck to you sir, and your bride
(public flogging for Rands and for Hyde)
Refuse all initial offers
until you’re sure that the coffers,
of the city and county are dry.
…and to the remaining directionally impaired,
Brandon stood up to your mob, wasn’t scared,
now you’re one brother down,
and it seems that the town
has made sure that young Brandon was spared.
…and the drunken cat fighters who started,
the events that triggered the dearly departed,
will all swear (though he ain’t)
earp was some kind of saint
who was defending what’s left of their honor…
Russel, NY. Been reading you a long, long time here. Knew you had a hellaciously hilarious sense of humor, could cut to the marrow with a few well chosen words.
Your poetry verse is epitome quality.
THANK YOU for sharing.
Made MY day in an odd kind of way.
Went to my Disclosure outlet and bought x 3 (instead of usual 1) One to send to a gun dealer friend on Border of Tex-Mex, who has followed links online after I alerted him, one for me/wifey and one for a relative.
Vendors reported they were flying off the stacks…guesstimate they may be gone in 4 days. Had extras stacked on the back counter – for now.
@HillBillyHeaven: thank you kindly…as for my copy, I’m at the mercy of the USPS so it will show up here in NY eventually…lol
