Let's Hear It For Small Towns!

Just an update for the curious, the criminals must stay in jail because they can't make bail. And, Mama has, of course, made not one, but two more connections that may result in Scary Man being snapped up and added jail time for inept criminals. Apparently, she was talking to the principal of her school and telling him the scoop. One of the places that a check was written was to a bar/dance club where stepdad would really have stood out in the crowd. Turns out that the bar owner was friends with the principal and they had ALREADY had a conversation about this returned check that went something like this, "Hey, do you know RR (stepdad)?" Principal: "Yeah, he is a wobbly, old white man with a beard." (Not exact quote, but the essentials). Bar Owner then gives a pretty darn precise description of Scary Man. In a separate discussion on Easter Sunday, one of Mama's friends was telling the story at a big, family gathering. A friend of Mama's friend's cousin (follow me?) says, "What was that name? She stole money from my brother in SOUTH CAROLINA." If this was a made-up story, I would give it a failing grade for being too unrealistic.
