The Good Fight (Is Over)

It’s official, people.

After failing to pull the wool over a jury's eyes last August, Bobby Gullete Jr. and the Commonwealth of Kentucky have finally cut their losses and dismissed the remaining charge against me. 

It’s the one where I’m the shape shifting ninja again.

Some two years ago, the suspect was said to have stood some 6'4" tall, but oddly enough, his dimensions seemed to creep closer and closer to mine, on an almost daily basis, since the alleged incident.  I say "alleged" because at this point, it’s not even clear that anything happened at all.

Either way, it wasn’t me and everybody and their grandma knew it, so that particular curtain has finally drawn to a close.

So now Mr. Gullette can keep his, admittedly entertaining, show at home and no longer has to be unconcerned with missing court in that oh so distant land called Fayette County, where public lynchings might be just tad harder to come by than he’s accustomed. 

And I do mean just a tad.

Also, to be sure it’s one of those “once and for all” kind of dismissals, I’ve relocated to more concrete pastures to avoid any future skirmishes with the good ole boys down at the Lexington Police Department. 

I figure it’s best for the both of us.

Now, I finally get to spend my time thinking about things I’d like to think about rather than studying case law and remembering court dates and wondering whether or not they'll eventually succeed in depriving me of my freedom, just for shits and giggles.

As for the boys in blue, they no longer have to see me hanging around downtown as a perpetual reminder of just how many times I’ve whipped their asses in court.

So it worked out well for everyone.

After nearly seven years of relentless abuse and perpetual indignation, I am free.  And the police are now free to forget me.  Ironically, it’s all I ever wanted in the first place.

There’s much more to be said about all of this, but I’ll save the savory details for later, once my new attorneys have given me the green light to punch these keys some more.  You read that right.  My NEW attorneys... 

Somebody around here has to hold these people accountable.
