Without some new information, it is clear to me that the woman was lost and her arrival at Bird's house was in innocence.

Hmmm, lets see. Private dead end road. One way in, one way out. Ok, I guess I can accept that there are obviously some people mentally challenged enough to have difficulty with that concept.
Clearly instructed to NOT go past the white trailer but chose to do so anyway. Yup, that is clearly an innocent act all right.

So you agree that she was directed to the road by Ward's niece.

And you agree that she would have to pass through Ward's property, through "No Trespassing" signs, by his driveway, in order to get to the listed property.

And you agree this is a looney woman from the southern part of the State wearing a red pantsuit, for god's sake, and not some local wood-booger like you and me. She missed "the bridge", went on the wrong side of the white trailer and turned up his driveway instead of proceeding further down the road.

Yea, she got lost.

If I am at your house and ask you where the guest bathroom is. You tell me it is down the hall, 2nd door on the right but don't go past the White greek statue because that is not where the guest bath is located. I choose to go past the White greek statue (the one I was Told Not to go past) anyway, does that mean I am lost or just to stupid to follow simple directions and/ or maybe wants to snoop around ?
I do however agree that she is a Loony woman from the southern part of the state wearing a red pantsuit.

MarkinNH many of your comments sound like what an idealistic young man would say, and I don't mean that disrespectfully.

Secondcurve...I have deleted this post after re-thinking about my continued involvement in this thread.
I no longer want to bang my head against the wall.
Apparently, 12 jury members, a prosecutor, police officers, and a judge, all got it wrong.
My bad. Ward is indeed blameless.
Could you please delete your post, as your response captured my post, and I want out.
My final thought is that he never belonged in jail...punishment did not fit crime. He may however have some anger management issues, and perhaps has become a bit to comfortable with his guns.
Rock on...

I am done, too. Hopefully, things go well for Ward in the future.

No matter who you are: I think it's time to let Ward try and regain some semblance of normalcy by shutting down this thresd. If he keeps reading this stuff, that goal will be delayed as long as people keep "pecking" on this forum. Just sayin. NB

Just like anyone else, the choice is his to read this thread or not. I don't disagree that there really isn't much else to say, but geeewhiz!

Yes, I agree. Time to shut it down. It is also the only way I will stop returning to it to read and post.
I am beginning to feel like the broken record that I know I am sounding like. I have expressed my opinion and flapped my gums enough.

Default pull plug

OK...no more Ward posts for me...this is not one.
I continue to laugh at poeple who don't think...just post on emotion.
Pull the plug?
Folks...I'm sure this forum is a labor of love for Don, but it is not simply done for the fun of it. He has to sell advertising...interent advertising is based on one thing, and one thing only...click counts.
Yes, it the past, Don had shut down threads, when the posts consisted of people just tearing into each other, and threatening each other...that is not the case here.
Here we have a thread 8 pages long, with over 36000 views, in a wildly hot topic in the lake's region.
This is a selling tool for Don, when he looks for advertisers in the future.
He shows them where people go for their info, and to discuss, when something big happens. WHAT HE DOES NOT DO...is tell the check writing advertisiers..."well, I shut it down when it gets over 36000 views."
Think people...think. While I'm sure Don does this because he wants to, and possibly enjoys it a bit, I'm sure he wants to make his expenses, as well as turn a profit if there is one avaiable.
Shut down the thread with the all time highest click count???!!! AAAHHHHHH...I grow weary....

I guess that depends on if "Free Ward Bird" becomes "Pardon Ward Bird"

JUST MY OPINION. It seems like a few posters get caught up in a "firefight" of rapid reactionary responses to reveal their opinions and when they tire, the call for "closing the thread" is used instead of a "civil truce". I for one spend more time watching and learning than posting but do enjoy the extreme positions.

Great game - GreenBay wanted to win. Steelers never seemed to rise to the occasion. I hope Ward Bird enjoyed the game as he wanted (FREE).

Hey....I still say that Ward would have been a lot better off carrying a broom and not a forty-five. Brooms are much less intimidating and can be used to sweep up the floor. You try sweeping the floor with a forty-five and you'll end up with a floor full of holes, plus brooms do not generally involve you with a need to hire a defense attorney!

Is there such a thing as a carry holster for a broom?

At the pardon hearing in concord Carroll County Attorney Tom Dewhurst said: “the jury did visit the area of Bird’s house and found it would have been easy to get turned around”.

OH Well, just 12 randomly picked Carroll County citizens who are idiots just like Harris….isn’t that right MarkinNH?

Default Just counting the days until Ward's next encounter?

I hope this knuckle-head is banned for possession of owning any firearms or weapons for that matter! Based on his past, we'll see his name here again I sure. Just hope it's not a fatality where this clown shoots an innocent citizen or law enforcement officer?

The words you quote are the words of the current county prosecutor not necessarily the words of all 12 jurors.... isn't that right Rusty?

I have been on Emerson Path and the Yukon Trail and know for a fact that a person can get mixed up and end up lost, so you can call me one of those idiots also. I had some business dealings with Lakes Region Water Co. and that got me to know that area pretty well. I don’t want to go into detail as to what transpired so I’ll just leave it at that.
