What part did the CMU boys play in this???

Truly acts like he is beyond this, however, don't be surprised when he is fitted for an orange jumpsuit.

The Blackmon firm is all tied up in this also. They will take Canton and now the City of Carthage down with them.

Soon Jerry won't have anything to talk about. Can't bad mouth Duh Maya or CMU or lose money in ads. I see WMGO failing soon.

Truly said he doesn't think the indictments are over with. Meanwhile, he's taking down his chandeliers and rolling up the new sod the city just laid in his yard.

AG, Auditor and DA cut a deal with the Blackmon’s. CMU is untouchable. Time to elect a new DA.

Has Truly stopped filling up his family cars with city gas yet? Asking for a friend in Canton.

The town started its decline when Dr. Truly was first elected years ago. He was always a crook. He was a crook as a physician 30 years ago. I worked in a hospital then and the nurses couldn't get in touch with him for as long as a week at a time when he had patients in the hospital. Look at Canton--while everything flourishes around the city, it and its deplorable schools fail. What a shame for the kids of Canton! Everything the African Americans touch in Canton becomes infected with graft and self-interest. Of course, they can have their own "self-rule" in this apartheid system, but the citizens of Canton are the ones who suffer. I wish everyone would boycott all the businesses there, like A-As boycotted white businesses in the past. The place is a cesspool of corruption and cronyism. Name ONE aspect of life that has improved since blacks have run the city. Name ONE! I call Canton "The Town That Time Forgot." And at this point, we should all "forget it." The worst problem is that the schools are so horrendous that the children of Canton have no hope of ever improving things.

@10:03pm yep you are correct

8:40am...Really? You want to call on a business boycott in Canton? Do you live in Canton? Do you even shop in Canton? Are you aware the businesses in the Historic District in Canton are primarily small independent businesses who are just trying to make a living? Yes, Canton and countless other communities are plagued with corrupt city officials. There are still lots of good people in Canton and they all deserve better. Yes, Canton has declined for several reasons--not just due to the corruption among the ole Canton families and the politicians. Canton is still a great place to shop, live and do business. And there are lots of great people and families in Canton. Is the town perfect? No. Is there corruption? Yes. Perhaps it's time for everyone to put pressure on law enforcement and state officials to do their jobs and clean up the corruption in this State. Much better idea than to encourage a negative and deplorable idea such as a business boycott.

We all should be calling the DA in Canton and the AG and demand they do their jobs. Canton is corrupt!

@1:24 The corruption in Canton and Madison County needs to be addressed by the DA, AG and even the FBI Public Corruption Division. Nothing is going to be resolved by all the anonymous posting or social media bullying. It's time to hold people accountable to do the jobs they were elected to do--at all levels of govt. People in Canton are away of the corruption. Radio owner has been paid to air so much false or tainted news and is now promoting the re-organization of the NAACP branch in Canton--people have no credible source of info. Why doesn't someone do a reputable media blitz and promote an anonymous tip line? There are people who will talk.....they just don't know who to trust.

The current AG has been in the pockets of the Blackmon's for years. They have always given hefty donations for his re-elections and being the good ole white Democratic boy he is, he does what he is told. As 2:13 says, Jerry is now a puppet of these folks. Other writer stated he is so soft and uses some other monotone guy as reader, plays only music for the black community some folks are dropping off from listening to him. It is a shame how Canton has been going, but hope it can be turned around. Was hoping that Gluckstadt annexation went our way this would have injected the voting base with more whites and opened up voting races with more diversity.

I agree with Joy at 1:06. A boycott is a stupid idea and would solve nothing. As long as the voter base in Canton remains the same, it won't matter if the law comes in and cleans the place up. Within two years it would be the same cesspool again.

As a metaphor, I give you New Orleans. They hose down the French Quarter streets every morning at 5:10 a.m. and they smell like piss again that afternoon at 3:45.
