“CALLING FOR THE HEADS OF CPS?”

“Calling for the heads of CPS”? Really 2 leaves a comment on my Examiner.com page

I received the comment below, from a person who obviously, doesn’t personally like me and clearly hates my outspoken manner of pointing out CPS corruption.

I am not sure who this person is, (although I have an idea) but whoever they are, they must be feeling a little insecure in their job. I thought I would take this comment and point out why I “call for the heads of CPS.”

Mama and Son Arrested in Drug Case

http://12403wc.blogspot.com/search?q=edith+bullis

 

Wilkes sheriff deputies arrested two family members Saturday evening, after they chased one of them to the other’s house, had to use a Taser on him multiple times, and found her trying to hide a of marijuana until they left. It started when a deputy was dispatched to a suspicious vehicle call shortly after 7pm near Glen Ridge and Rock Creek Road, where a caller said they’d seen drug activity of some sort. On the way to the area, the deputy spotted the car that had been described and was able to get the driver to pull over. What started as a routine stop turned into a high-speed chase when the deputy told the driver he could see what looked to be baggies of drugs in his left-hand jacket pocket. Having identified the driver as 39-year old Gene Bullis, Junior, the deputy followed at some distance and pulled up behind Bullis as he was getting out of the car at his parents’ home on Skyview Drive.

If you live in North Carolina and especially Wilkes County, please write to the news paper and demand answers as to this why this woman is still working as a CPS supervisor and has not been fired for her conduct in this matter.  Write to the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services and the Governor’s office and ask why Mrs. Bullis continues to be employed in this department when the State policies state that she should have been dismissed.  Make sure and point out that you feel it is impossible for Mrs. Bullis to perform her job of removing children from drug using parents when she herself has been arrested for possession and apparently condones her son’s drug use since, according to news reports,  she tried to help him hide drugs during his arrest.

Once he got worked up, Bullis never seemed to calm down. A six-page crime report describes the deputy repeatedly shocking him with a Taser to no effect, Bullis being able to fight off multiple deputies, and other activity generally telling of being high on something, according to the deputy. During the confrontation, Bullis’ mother Edith came out of the house and stood between the deputies and her son, refusing for quite a while to allow them any access to him. When she did finally step aside, it was only because there were several deputies and a Lieutenant she knows at the scene. Still, she would not go further than arm’s reach from him, and after a while it became obvious she was trying to help him hide something. When a search of his jacket pocket turned up only one baggie of marijuana and deputies could not find any drugs by walking the driveway and some distance along the road, they confronted Mrs. Bullis, who was standing in one spot very firmly planting one foot. When she was told to move by one of the deputies, Mrs. Bullis allegedly started faking back pain as a distraction and tried to kick something under the nearby car. It turned out to be another baggie of drugs.

She was arrested for simple possession and resisting an officer, while her son was charged with fleeing to elude arrest, resisting an officer, and drug possession.
