Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy. Both men were listed in NCIC as fugitives from justice. I'm not sure from which law school you obtained your law degree or which police academy you trained at but you apparently slept through it all. And both were charged as being fugitives from justice. So Jimmy, are you claiming that the police and Kanawha Magistrate Court are wrong in charging these two crooks? And what code have you been reading and referring to?
