Perverted Justice for Barnett D. Slatton

Dunlap, Tennessee

2011-11-15

Documents speak volumes and this plea agreement was unacceptable justice. Judge Thomas Graham and Prosecutor Steve Strain didn’t have to bend to the will of the accused sexual predator and Ex Sequatchie County Commissioners  Barnett “Barney”  Slatton’s  will.

Here are the documents, I have nothing else to say but justice is perverted once again in Sequatchie County. He doesn’t even have to register as a sex offender. Maybe he should have won a prize? He did finally resign.

Please do not blame police for this. They did their job.  Judge Thomas Graham and Prosecutor Steve Strain let this man go virtually almost unpunished for sex crimes.

Commissioner Slattons New Charges

Update on Sequatchie County Tennessee  Commissioner Barnett Slatton’s new charges.

Here are the documents with the victims identities redacted.  I prefer you to read the documents yourself and keep my editorial to a minimum. I have turned the comments off because of the sensitive nature of the charges. Sometimes silence is more powerful than words.

Read and think for yourself. There are more documents I will publish them, time permitting.

The court redacted the identities of the victims, this is the law and I agree with it. The victims are no longer victims. They are taking their power back. These are brave girls and need our support as this moves forward. Our children are not the playthings of authority figures.

Was Sequatchie County Commissioner Barnett Slatton Possibly Booked or Re-booked ?

I have heard from sources today that Barnett Slatton would be charged again. This evening I received several more calls and emails that Sequatchie County Commissioner Barnett Slatton was booked or Re-booked on charges by TBI for 2 counts of Aggravated Statutory Rape and bonded out at 6pm on 2011-01-24. At this point we are unsure if these are new charges or old charges. I called the jail to verify and a female answered the phone and said ” We don’t know anything about this” when I asked her name she hung the phone. This seems probable as TBI had announced previously that more charges against Mr. Slatton were pending.  We will keep you apprised of this situation as  it develops.
