Gloucester, VA County Employees Continue To Abuse Taxpayers

6:45 AM Monday morning, December 9th, 2013 this county auto was seen at McDonald's.  The giveaway that it's a county employee?  The license plate.

8:30 AM.  Parks and Recreation vehicle number 67.  Monday morning December 9th, 2013.

We will give some credit, county employees have slowed down being found where they do not belong, but they are still doing this on a daily basis.  We have been out every week and we see them every week.  We are not always able to get photos though.  Mr Happy Meals on Wheels from the county school system has been seen at 7-Eleven and McDonald's numerous times but has managed to evade our cameras.

Last Monday, December 2nd, 2013 This deputy no sooner goes on duty that he decides that he needs breakfast.  It's McDonald's in Hayes by Farm Fresh.  Now to be fair, these guys do need to eat and they, without question, are stuck in their vehicles throughout most of the day.  It's a very tough job no matter what anyone thinks.  The issue however is grabbing food just after you get on duty?  You could not eat before going to work like everyone else has to?  If we are to look to these people for examples, what are the examples being set?

  We said it before, as long as county employees are out violating the law, we are going to continue to catch them and show everyone how our tax dollars are being wasted.  It is very clear that we have no leadership in the county.  None of the officials have the backbone to stop this waste and abuse and clear violations to the public trust.  Taxes are going up and here is part of the reason why.  We have been reporting on this since April of this year.  That's 9 months now and it's still not under control?  We only report these issues when we have the actual photographic evidence.  Like we said, we have caught plenty of other county employees but they got lucky and managed to avoid our cameras.

  Maybe the new members of the Board of Supervisors will put a screeching halt to all of this come January.  We expect they will.  We have some good people coming in and we are expecting some solid management coming in and moving forward.

Monday Gloucester, Government Employee Reports

About 8:05 AM.  Looks like we have a winner.  Government employee seen going into McDonald's for another happy meal.

Government employee is inside McDonald's while car sits outside running.  You can see the exhaust coming out of the tailpipe in the above picture.

Good news for Gloucester officials.  It's a Middlesex county government employee we caught.

Anyone recognize this employee from Middlesex County Virginia?

Our next catch was watching one of the Sheriff's deputies drive in.  Though he was coming in like last week to make sure that no government employees were trying to go through the drive through windows or stopping in where they didn't belong into the local restaurants.  Turned out he just wanted breakfast himself and Hardee's drive through at about 8:15 AM.

  Last Monday a deputy came in and sat in the parking lot for about one hour to watch the parking lot making sure no Gloucester, government employees were trying to hit the local restaurants while on the clock.  Problem was, he was facing the wrong way to catch anyone.  Unless of course he was just napping.  Don't think he was napping, but there was no one to catch last week.  We tried to wave to the deputy last week from 7-Eleven but he ignored us.

Next up?

Public Utilities coming out of WaWa.  Truck number 23.  Time is about 9:05 AM.

Widescreen shot.  He came out of the parking lot in the above picture at the far right hand side.  You can see the flowering bushes do match.

Our next one is a video of  another Public Utilities employee driving truck number 24 down the highway at a speed we estimated at about 70 mph in a 55 mph zone.  We were doing about 60 to keep up with the flow of traffic.  The video is just below.

Boy, it looks like a really bad day to be a Gloucester County, Virginia official having to answer for all of these issues.  But then again, we know they really just do not care.  It's your money they are wasting so big deal right?  Never mind that if a Gloucester, government employee may get into an accident while doing something they are not supposed to do will cause an insurance claim not to be paid.  So who would end up paying for these employees mistakes if an accident should happen while they are somewhere they are not supposed to be?  The county would pay up.  That means your tax dollars.  But again, what do they care, it's your money and we keep showing how it sure looks like they are wasting millions of dollars of it.

  Now everyone needs to be as silent as possible for a few minutes.  We might just be able to hear s few more retirements coming down the road along with a few jobs opening up in a few months in some key positions.  SSHHHH!  Can you hear it?

Gloucester, VA Government Employees Monday Report

Our report for Monday morning of Gloucester, VA employees abuses and breaking local and state laws is running late this week as meetings and other media issues were forced on us to take a front seat in our attention.

  So here is Monday's report.  Gloucester, VA animal control vehicle ,pictured here to the left, was seen driving through the parking lot around the Big Lot's area of the shopping center looking for someone with a camera.  He kept going through the middle of the parking lot looking at all the various vehicles.  He obviously did not see me over at the 7-Eleven.  What was really funny about the entire matter?  Animal Control officers overlooked a woman in a gold Sebring Chrysler convertible with a German Sheppard, unsecured, in the vehicle, with the top down on the vehicle.  So what?  Well in any other case we would agree, except Gloucester has an ordinance that makes this a very clear violation and one we have already argued is not a valid ordinance and have asked to have it removed from the books.  The county has refused to remove it from the books and state that the ordinance is in accordance to state law.  Then why didn't they enforce it here?  Did they violate their oath to uphold county and state laws?  Or did they violate upholding an ordinance they know is a violation?

  Now what really concerns me is that his looking for me was personal and not business use of a government vehicle.  Animal Control personnel are obviously concerned with being caught violating the laws and want the reporting to stop.  How is this county business?

Our boy here, Mr Happy meals on wheels made his Monday morning appearance in the same shopping center for the same reason.  He did not stop for his morning happy meal.  He just drove through the lot looking for someone with a camera.  What is interesting to note, he was caught on both Monday morning last week and again on Friday morning last week and here this past Monday, he is still driving around using a county vehicle for his own personal use.  Officials have done nothing to stop employees from using county vehicles for personal use and even when it is reported to county officials, you still see these same people out continuing to do the same thing over and over and over again.

Only now county employees are looking for someone with a camera.  This is a very simple matter.  When county employees stop violating laws, we will stop taking pictures of them violating the laws.  If they start again, we will start again.  So the question remains.  Why can't county officials manage their employees?

Gloucester, VA School Board Employee Caught Breaking The Law.....Again

7:55 AM.  Friday morning, October 4th, 2013.  This is the same employee we caught on Monday at this same place at about the same time.  It's very clear that no one even bothered to talk to him after being caught breaking the law on Monday.  Though I did not take his actual picture, I did identify the drive as the same person as on Monday.

  Again we have shown on this site numerous times that government employees are prohibited from using vehicles for personal use.  This is clearly personal use.  It's not only local policy, it's also state code laws.  But then again, how do you blame an employee when you hear that even worse abuses may very well be going on above these employees?  What incentive is there for employees to even care about what the policies or state laws are when those above them keep violating them?  Why hasn't Brenda Garton put an end to all of this?

  Your tax dollars continuing to be wasted in front of you.  And not to worry, they will raise your taxes even more as someone has to pay for all of this abuse.  Partial thanks goes to our Mr Happy Meal with his meals on wheels.
