I would just like to comment on the July ll, 2008 article on Mr. Surber and his police department. I am a 50 year old women and have had only one speeding ticket in my life time and have never been in trouble. I went to the town of Saltville for concern for my son because he was working in the town of Saltville at the time of June 9, 2007. Mr. Surber went to my son’s job to talk to him and my son called me and was upset. I told him to come on home and that I would go over and talk to Mr. Suber and find out what was going on. Well was that a big mistake. He just did not want to talk to me. I thought that he was going to pick my son up and take him to jail. He said that he had made threats to employes but would not tell me what he had done. I tryed to talk to him and my youngest son said come on mom and I told my son that I guess I would have to get Cody a lawyer. Thats when he dicided he would arrest me. We were outside on the street. I was going to my car and all three cops kept saying we’re going to arest you we are going to arrest you. By then I was so fed up that I said do what ever you got to do. They took me to jail for nothing I did’nt even know what I was arrested for until I got to the police station. My charges were for disorderly conduct and trespassing at a police station. I had to get a lawyer and go to court twice for nothing. Both cases were dismissed. I have not been back in the town of Saltville since this happened. We did all of our shopping and Business in this town because it was closer for us to there since we live close to Saltville. It’s a shame that they have to run good people out of there town. Since this has happened none of my family will shop in Saltville anymore. I did not get a apology from the Town or from the Police Department. They put me through alot for 7 months. If you can’t trust a police officer to talk to Then tell me who you can trust? Thanks Jane S. Cruey
