Deputies and officers with the Sheriff department are sounding off about the sorry state of affairs within the department. Hoss Mack knew what he was doing when he dumped 20 years of problems on Lowery’s back. Now Lowery is bragging about the “CULTURE” he inherited, and adopted, from Hoss the Boss. Problem is that culture favors the good ole boys, aka GOB. The chain of command is arbitrary, accountability and transparency often disappears through favoritism. Internal cover-ups are a common practice. Sexual incidents within the department, from high ranking officers to patrol, would rival any soap opera.
It seems the Baldwin County Sheriff's Department has internal hanky panky problems. One of the top officers in the Sheriff's Department has been having a little extra curricular activity with a subordinate female employee, who is married to a fellow officer. No official action by the sheriff has been taken, in fact, looks like it's covered up from the public. Why should we care? Because the Sheriff's Department is well known for cover ups. The problem is that fellow officers are now wondering how this situation is not public and severe action has not been taken against the senior officer. The Ripp Report has had 3 different people call us giving us dates, names and ranks of the individuals involved. Let's see how Sheriff Hoss Mack is going to spin this sordid story.
EYES, That is all it takes to see the obvious. The good ole boy network, GOB, in Baldwin County is shameless, They know low voter turnout, constituent ignorance and the cabal of corrupt politicians, judges and lawyers will cover their ass. Good News: The GOB network is eroding and panicking at the obvious push back by the 14 incorporated municipalities within Baldwin County. In our last election concerned voters flipped 4 GOB municipalities. The biggest win was Bay Minette getting Bob Wills out of office. An investigation into his time as Mayor would take a bulldozer to turn over all the dirty laundry under his watch. Start with Steelwood and the new pipe line co??? Also ask him why he wants Harry Still silenced?
The Alabama Solution The Alabama Solution is a 2025 American documentary film directed by Andrew Jarecki and Charlotte Kaufman.

A short but powerful read from Alabama Exposure and Accountability. The Framing of Murray Lawrence Jr. If this story appeared in a novel, readers would reject it as implausible. They would insist no justice system could allow failures this extensive across law enforcement, prosecutors, defense counsel, the courts and the prison system. But this is not fiction. Every part of this story is grounded in documented fact. After reading it, Fairhope, Baldwin County and the State of Alabama will never look the same.
This week we are joined by two guests. Richard Cox is running for Baldwin County Commission District 1. The other is Whitney Scapecchi (@wyopp) of Southern Freedom Press to tell us about the Faux Pas by Rep Donna Givens once again reminding us that this "Catalyst Cabal" is nothing fictitious. Be sure to read the Ripp Report regarding this matter as well "Summerdale Sunshine". Qualifying is over and the dirty politics we have all come to expect and enjoy like no where else on earth has begun. The Faux Pas subject matter political event went off in Summerdale without anything eventful happening expect that Huey Mack was the only person on the microphone except the band. The legislatives session is in week 3 and Brandon Moseley and the Alabama Gazette have us covered with the goings on in Montgomery.
“The developer will do whatever the hell he wants, without any accountability” THIS IS THE BACKSTORY TO GENERIC REPORTING: The culvert issue was first addressed by the Ripp Report and lawsuits filed against the city over the Publix project on Parker Road. The culverts, sewer lines, wetlands issues, drainage, proximity to Fly Creek ,county right a ways, city easements, tree survey missing, were just a few issues—Fauxhope did nothing—then allowed the apartments– same issues same no action—Now they are expanding building again behind apartments, the developer is given a green flag.
Today the Summerdale candidate forum will feature the good ole boys, and women of Baldwin County, infighting and dividing alliances. It seems Catalyst has stained the name of Scott Boone Consulting aka Catalyst, and some of his loyalists are wanting a divorce. Scott Boone is Lowery’s campaign manager, which should come as no surprise. Jon Gray is working with Scott Boone on Kristy Haygood’s campaign. Gray is a long time friend of Haygood, let’s see how this threesome works. The last thing constituents want is Jon Gray anywhere near our already corrupt judicial system. Gray is also representing Frances “WOKE” Jones. The entire community of Fort Morgan have raised 10.000 thousand dollars to get rid of Jones who has disappointed constituents and what her replaced.
