If one little piece of paper was destroyed, the scene became a crime scene. However, to conceal the truth about this awful event from the good taxpayers of Cleveland County, a conspiracy was formed starting with the principal of the school, Stephen Fisher, Sheriff Alan Norman, Robert Queen and the other eight school board members. All of them made the choice to conspire against all of us, to show us NO respect as citizens of the County.<\/i><\/b><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><b><i>Not to demean any good citizen; but I must remind the readers that a conspiracy is formed when people form a plot to hide\/conceal the truth. The truth about the vandalism at Burns was hidden from the citizens and was cast off as only a \u201cSenior Prank,\u201d which was not true. Robert Queen and his waterboys leveled a censure on Danny Blanton and Ronnie Grigg for giving just a tidbit of the truth to the media. There is a method to be used to investigate the incident, although our Sheriff won\u2019t investigate.<\/i><\/b><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><b><i>Every taxpayer in Cleveland County ought to be \u201cup in arms\u201d about the vandalism at Burns High School in the evening hours of May 18, 2023.
