When will Hamp just admit he was wrong????

I am amazed at the comments attributed to the Tunica County Sheriff in the 14 Nov 2014 issue of the Tunica Times article: "Circuit trial reverses Thompson verdict."

"Sheriff  K.C. Hamp said he was not surprised by the verdict, citing Walls' background as a defense attorney prior to being elected as judge.

'He heard it with a defense (attorney's) ear and came up with a verdict,' Hamp said. 'The facts and law remain the same.'

Hamp said witness testimony and evidence presented was gathered during an investigation conducted by the state attorney general's office."

Let's take this paragraph by paragraph:

1. The verdict isn't my fault, it's Judge Walls' experience that caused this verdict.

2. Yes, the facts and the law remain the same.  I sat through every word of the 10 Nov 2014 trial.  The testimony was clear.  You, the Tunica County Sheriff, entrapped Michael Thompson.  Further, when Michael Thompson became ill while in your care, did you transport him to the hospital in an ambulance whose service costs the County $60,000 per month?  No, not you.  You had to show Mr. Thompson just how tough you are.  You, Sheriff Hamp, cuffed Mr. Thompson and shackled Mr. Thompson and put him in the back of a Sheriff's car.  Shame on you Hamp.

3. As I stated before, I sat through the trial on 10 Nov 2014 and the last paragraph of Hamp's statement above is just not true.  There was no evidence presented from the state attorney general's office.

So, where are we?  Just how much money is Hamp's foolishness going to cost Tunica County?  I have no idea but I bet it "ain't" going to be cheap.
