Still no public release of video

Two days after questions were posed here about whether a second man in a Crime Stoppers video is a high-ranking law enforcement officer in Iredell County, the video still has not been publicly released.

Suspicions continue that a man in the video of suspected thief Jamie Miller – recently aired on WSOC-TV – bears resemblance to Capt. Harold Miller (Jamie Miller’s dad) who supervises the criminal warrant service unit and patrol division of the Iredell County Sheriff’s Department. Jamie Miller is being sought by Lincoln and Iredell County police. In Lincoln, he is accused of stealing gift cards from a woman in church; the Crime Stoppers video, according to police, captures Miller in a restaurant, using a stolen gift card for his purchase.

Asked in e-mails over the past two days to confirm or deny whether it is him in the video, Harold Miller wrote in an e-mail to the Report today: “A simple answer to your simple question is NO it's not me."

As of today, a second video has apparently surfaced, which according to Donna Swicegood of the Statesville Record & Landmark “shows Harold Miller was in Mooresville 2 minutes after his son used the card at the Zaxby's in Lincolnton.” This new video was apparently captured at the courthouse in Mooresville (the Iredell County Government Center).

Swicegood said the sheriff’s department showed the new video to the Record & Landmark and WSOC-TV. After viewing both videos, Swicegood concluded: “Harold is clearly shown in the one from the government center. And the one from Lincolnton doesn't look anything like him.”

Asked if the Record & Landmark plans to post both original videos – time-stamped and dated – to its website, Swicegood said she didn’t know.

She said “Harold is in the video at the (Mooresville) government center at 3:12 p.m.”

But the time-stamp on the Lincoln County restaurant surveillance video offered little help in determining where Miller was at the time, because apparently, the time stamp was inaccurate. “The restaurant video is time stamped but it's clearly the wrong time because it is stamped early in the morning, like 3 a.m or something when Zaxby's is not open,” Swicegood said.

She said Lincolnton PD records the time of the crime in the restaurant as 3:11 p.m., which would mean Harold Miller was in Mooresville at the time his son used the gift card in Lincolnton. It is unclear at this time how the Lincolnton Police Department pinpointed the time of the crime at 3:11 p.m. and what documentation has been provided to substantiate that.

Swicegood said WSOC recorded the videos that the Sheriff’s Department showed today and that the news station plans to air both videos. It’s unclear when the videos will play on Channel 9.

Capt. Darren Campbell – who supervises criminal investigations, community policing and lake enforcement for the Iredell County Sheriff’s Department – e-mailed the Report yesterday in an effort to set up a meeting this morning with the sheriff. In a reply, I expressed my appreciation to both Campbell and Redmond for their willingness to meet and accommodate my schedule. However, as most readers know, I do not participate in closed-door meetings with government officials. I added in my reply to the sheriff and Campbell: “I’m sure the sheriff would agree that having written answers to the questions I posed would be in the best interest of everyone involved. The questions are simple and straight-forward, and they warrant simple, straight-forward answers.”

I also thanked the two men for offering to share the information they have in regard to this particular case. “I look forward to receiving the information and hope it clears up this situation once and for all,” I concluded.

But no one responded to that e-mail. The information was not shared. And still, neither video is available for public viewing.

Mid-day today, the Report e-mailed Redmond, asking if he planned to add the two videos from Zaxby's and the courthouse to the sheriff's website to help calm some of the suspicions that have been circulating the past couple weeks.

Redmond’s response: “Thank you for your email. I had a message emailed to you yesterday requesting you come and meet at the Sheriff's Office so you could look over several items of interest from this investigation. I invited you first because, I wanted you to see all the evidence before anyone, since you asked me to answer some questions first. I was made aware of your policy which will not allow that type of meeting. I was sorry, to hear that you did not want to meet and review all the evidence in the case.”

In response, the Report asked the sheriff – again – if he planned to add the two videos to the Sheriff’s Department website. So far, that e-mail has gone unanswered.

Redmond had told the Report earlier in the day that he has a copy of the original Crime Stoppers video. “I received a copy of the original video and your request the same day,” he said, adding that he “ordered an internal investigation into this matter” after being contacted by WSOC.

Redmond said the man in the Crime Stoppers video is “absolutely not” Harold Miller. “Based on evidence that we have and are willing to make available to you, it is proven this is not Captain Miller. I am again extending you an invitation to come and view the evidence.”

It is unclear why Redmond will not post “the evidence” on his websites or in an e-mail.

When asked if the Sheriff’s Department has video-enhancement equipment that could enhance the Crime Stoppers surveillance footage and clear up suspicions about the man on the clip, Redmond acknowledged that the department has such equipment. However, he said, “The video did not need enhancing. It was very clear from the first time it was reviewed; the man in the video was not Captain Miller.

“Based on our investigation which Captain Miller cooperated with, he was at another location in Mooresville on secured video, approximately one minute prior to the man in the video using the card in Lincolnton. We will assist Lincolnton Police Department in any way if requested.”

Redmond also posted a statement today on his Facebook page and the Iredell County Sheriff’s Department website which reads in full:

“My agency was contacted by WSOC-TV in Charlotte late last week in reference to reports that they had received about a video clip the Lincolnton Police Department requested them to run to assist them in an investigation that they were conducting. In the video there were two men, one was the suspect and the other was a by-stander.

“Questions came to WSOC-TV that the by-stander was an employee of my office.

“An internal investigation was conducted based on this inquiry. It is the policy of this office not to release any information while an investigation in ongoing.

“Several questions have been raised in various media outlets wanting information and several rumors were started.

“Based on information that was uncovered during the investigation it has been proven beyond any doubt that the person in the video clip WSOC-TV aired, was not an employee of my office. My employee was in the courthouse in Mooresville. He is seen on encrypted tamper proof security camera footage at 3:12 pm. The crime occurred in Lincolnton at 3:11 pm.

“I have been asked specific questions by a freelance media outlet and have answered them. I have made it clear on numerous occasions that I would meet with her and show her the evidence. My office received correspondence from her. She stated she would not ‘Participate in closed-door meetings.’ My door is open and I am willing to provide any and all evidence that was gathered to prove my employee was not involved in this matter to anyone.

“Because of the rumors and speculation that have swirled around this issue I am coming forward with this information to put these questions to rest.

Thank you,
Sheriff Phillip H. Redmond”

Hopefully the sheriff will make the videos publicly available soon. Once he posts them, we’ll link to them here.

***Added Friday, March 5, at 10:08 a.m. - Despite the Statesville Record & Landmark and WSOC-TV apparently meeting with Sheriff Phil Redmond yesterday to view the newly surfaced video from the Mooresville courthouse, as of this morning, no stories are posted on either website. Once they print/air their information, I'll link to the stories here.****

Great article. Very much to the point and simple for them to reply to if they actually have both videos and both videos clear Harold Miller.

Mike Raymore said...

Good, Iredell county can use there equipment to clear his son also, because that clearly isnt him in the video either.

Anonymous said...

Whether it is or not really does not matter to me. The facts still remain Harold Is a Captain over a warrant squad and all patrol deputies. There is outstanding warrants once again on his son Jamie. How is it that Jamie has been wanted since October 09 and he has not been arrested? Does Redmond really want us voters to think that is normal. I remember Jeff Coggins sure arrested his oldest son several times when he broke the law. Of course we had a good sheriff then that made it plain your immediate family could have a negative impact upon your career, if you did not handle the situation properly.
Jamie, "Thank You" so much for accurate reporting on your behalf. No play on words just the facts palin and simple.

Deception is Sheriff Phillip Redmonds favorite method of choice. This video ordeal is only a small part of what he does. He commonly deceives the public to get votes and to support his ego.

Another recent example is the use of the COPS program. from the sheriffs website;

"During the past 8 years Sheriff Redmond sought grant monies to fund the C.O.P.s (Community Oriented Police) unit in the Brawley School and Langtree Rd areas and Perth Rd, Hwy 21 South sections of Iredell County where growth is overwhelming. These units are designed to provide quality service, quicker response and community-oriented officers to their areas of the county. Due to the rapid growth in both population and traffic, Sheriff Redmond and the citizens in those areas are working together in an effort to accomplish a common goal of community safety and awareness.

In the C.O.P.s area 9 officers are assigned to bike, motorcycle and road patrol and Lake Enforcement to assure all areas are served."

Okay, the grants were Federal grants according to what I have been told. That means that the funds were designated to work that area and were written as needed due to the congestion and traffic and polulation. It should specify that. You can get a copy of the grant request and the grant as it will be public record. If so, the use of these officers and equipment or any resources somewhere else should be considered a misuse of those Federal funds. Also the unit was designed to be used in areas with "rapid growth in both population and traffic" and places "where growth is overwhelming."

Not to mention that Redmond is ALWAYS bringing up the COPS program to show what he has done for the south end of the county.

Many of us are wondering why then, C.O.P.S fliers were hung on doorknobs off of businesses on Hwy.901 in the remote Northern end of the county.

On the flier it states that "An Iredell County COPS Officer Stopped By To Meet You." It goes on to explain the COPS program and then states that , "The COPS officers are available to meet with you one on one or in a group setting."

So this program that is dedicted to the southern end of the county is now being offered to the remote northern end, and right at election time. Sounds like campaigning to me.

Now in all fairness I have to say that as told to me it was not the C.O.P.S. officers that distributed these fliers but the A.C.E. (Agressive Criminal Enforcement Team). I don't see how hanging fliers is aggressive criminal enforcement. It's more like agressive vote getting.

Not to mention that the flier is telling the residents of Nothern Iredell County that they are being offered a service that isn't even available to those citizens. Unless Phil intended on bringing them up if requested per the flier which would be lying to the south end citizens.

Just another day with Phil Redmond in charge. I have heard it said that Phil's favorite saying is It's not what you do, it's what people think you do. I believe that.

I have sent a copy of this flyer to Jamie. She is free to post it if anyone wants to question the wording on it. These fliers were distributed not once but twice because the same business received two of them. The first around March 11th and the second around March 17th. That is at least two nights that officers were having to campaign by spreading lies instead of looking for local drugs and agressively enforcing the laws.

Note; the card had an officers name at the bottom and has been blocked out. Officers only do what they have been told to do as comes down through the chain of command.

Correction on the dates, they were supposed to be February 11th and February 17th. Obviously March 11th isn't here yet.

One more note. I am sure if asked about this Sheriff Redmond will give his usual response and say he didn't know anything about it. So apparently it isn't what he does, it's what he doesn't know that he does that is causing him problems.

Jamie...

What would have prefered the Sheriff to do deliver it to your door?. In the above piece the Sheriff said he wanted to give it to you first. You are the one that demanded it, why not take the time and go see the so called evidence, so don't say they will not make it public, you just would not go because it would not get this blog all the attention, controversity sales. You have removed certian comments, while leaving others that you know are fabrications, and not factual, all the canidates should come on here and put a stop to it all. it is hurtful, and mean, and based on inneuendo's and some have done nothing but their jobs trying support their families. How would you feel? knowing you let it continue unfairly, you must have some big reason to attack and allow other to be attacked, especially when you show such favortism to some.I know most of the canidates, and am glad they are willing to step up and run they are fine men. But lets all of us elect based on truth, and the men on who they truly are...thank you

Steve said...

Go cry somewhere else jackie. You are confused because you are used to the media that tells you what to think instead of giving you the truth and letting you figure things out on your own. Not in one place on this blog did Jamie say she thinks the people in the video is the Millers. If anything she's giving the Sherriff the chance to clear his office's name from all the rumors and do it in a way that nobody can say the Sherriff is lying or that Jamie is lying. If you can't take the heat get out the kitchen, but before you leave, let me know where you found the place that people give money to this blog for "controversity sales"....I would like to donate. Thank you.

"Jackie" How did you get that Jamie G. wanted it delivered to HER doorstep. She wanted it delivered to the PUBLIC. That could have been done by sending it to her or by the Sheriff posting it on his own website or facebook, youtube whatever his choice was.

She also requested that he answer some simple questions; In her email to “I’m sure the sheriff would agree that having written answers to the questions I posed would be in the best interest of everyone involved. The questions are simple and straight-forward, and they warrant simple, straight-forward answers." The problem with that request are the two words; straight forward. Redmond cannot be straight forward. That is why he can't speak publically except for briefly bbecause there are too many eyes on him.He is afraid they will see what he knows. That is why when controversy arises he is always out of town with a sick relative our on some other emergency. His first act in office was to fire, I believe 15 people which was a record. Two of those were put back on almost right away when the public pitched a fit. But after they were fired Redmond could not be found. For the first two weeks people were trying to find Redmond to talk to him to ask for their jobs back and the chickens@!t was hiding.

He is a liar and a coward. He will only confront someone if he can be in control of the situation and intimidate, another very good reason for jamie G. to not go see him in private. He wanted her to come first so that he could try to sway her with his "charm" or intimidate her if that didn't work.

Ask Deputy Keith Bills how he was ganged up on and treated and threatened for something he didn't even do. Harold headed up that little fiasco too. He wasn't even permitted to have his supervisor in the office while they yelled and the sheriff put his finger in his face. It is ICSO policy to have your surerviser with you if you are being questioned or accused of something.

Redmond uses lies and intimidation to get what he wants.He always has and always will. You can't change the man all we can do is get rid of him.

"Jackie" (LT.) I told you yesterday that at least you are posting while on duty so you aren't quite as intoxicted. Your posts get WAY worse in the evening. By 10:00 PM you really need to get off the computer. Obviously you didn't take my advice and posted at 12:55. You said I was a funny guy so let's have some fun with your post. Let's pull out all of the Otis Campbell remarks. I never realized that drunks type like they talk. Amazing that you are the best the Sheriff has to represent him.

What would have prefered the Sheriff to do...(Oh yeah, no alcohol involved there)

...go see the so called evidence, ("so called evidence" wow, you don't buy it either huh? Sounds like you are getting weary and resentful being caught between the crooked sheriff and the public who wants honest answers.)

it would not get this blog all the attention, controversity sales. (Should have been an AND in there. Drunks usually miss those. And what is controversity? I tried looking it up but didn't have any luck. Intoxicated people should stay away from big words.)

You have removed certian comments, while leaving others that you know are fabrications, (You are the ones that keep making that post so you can make an issue when it is removed. Good gosh you are obvious.)


it is hurtful, and mean, and based on inneuendo's and some have done nothing but their jobs trying support their families. (WHAT? Your eyes must have been crossing up on this one. Just one big slur from subject to subject. Take another swig and finish.)

How would you feel? knowing you let it continue unfairly (Another slur. There is a question mark in the middle of your sentence)

I know most of the canidates, and am glad they are willing to step up and run (You used the word candidates above as well and both are spelled just like a drunk would say them. Candidate would be difficult)

There are some actual spelling errors in your post that I didn't point out and letters switched around, we all do that. But the rest is pathetic.

I thought Phillip had an unwritten policy that no Deputy is supposed to consume alcohol even off duty because they should always be on call. Isn't that what Ricky D. told everyone after he used the alcosensor in the supervisors office on some that were called in for a FEMA test?

Tell you something else too meatball you mentioned a rape charge, keep in mind that your past and present isn't that swift either. I may be unemployed but at least I'm not the piss bucket boy for King Phillip.

7:45 Nice job complimenting yourself. I can't believe you are up already. You must be used to getting crawling drunk and still getting up on time. Do you keep the moniter and keyboard on the floor for just such occasions? Since that post was at 12:55 was that the time you got back from Cornelious? Did you get thrown out again for groping women or stumble out under your own power? Bet the sheriff doesn't know about that either! He would have a cow.

Commenting from the "remote region" of Northern Iredell County, the ACE team often leaves cards in response to reports of frequent break-ins in the area. In February, there was a string of car break-ins, and out building break-ins in the "remote region" of Northern Iredell, and I believe the cards and fliers were distributed as a reaction and also to notify people of the crimes and to be on guard. P.S. referring to us here who grow your food, and supply your milk and eggs as the "remote region" while implying that we couldn't possibly need extra law enforcement of our own seems arrogant. Could it be possible that a separate grant was obtained for our region, or that the department was trying to save tax money by reusing the cards with all the same info on them instead of re-printing some new ones just to satisfy someone's need for supposed controversy?

I'm a Gatton Report fan, but go see the evidence already. Sometimes reporters do have to go to the source and take advantage of the opportunities they have to clear something up and then REPORT that back to the people. Your open government stance is wonderful, but it doesn't always work out that way.

You want answers, GO get them, don't wait on it to be delivered to you.

Blast from the past...from 1995.....
Iredell Sheriff Phil Redmond said a top aide used bad judgment when he tried to remove his grandchild from the child's home without a court order but won't be disciplined. Redmond announced the decision Tuesday, saying an internal investigation into the matter was now complete. The investigation into the actions of Lt. Harold Miller started Oct. 2 and ended last week, Redmond said.

Now that was worth reading! Thank you 12:16...it seems there has been a crooked road for sometime, and although I am, by nature, an optimistic person, I am sure it will still have a crooked path, but at least Jaime is putting some speed bumps down so at least you can get a glimpse of what is truly happening.

I would like to also add that to the "Gatton Report Fan", I think you misunderstood what is being presented...with her actually GOING to seek out the answers in the first place, none of this would be in discussion...she is not waiting for them to be delivered, and she has not asked for that, she has only asked what we ALL have asked...show the tape publicly...not to just one person behind closed doors. It already sounds intimidating enough for me, an innocent blog reader, and though I am pretty confident Jaime does not get easily intimidated, why risk the chance?

And finally, to the "remote reader in Northern Iredell"...I completely understand your statement that it does seem a bit arrogant to assume that region of the county would not need further manpower, but I took from the statement was that it was an empty promise to the northern part of the county, unless there is a separate grant...but wouldn't Redmond have already tooted his horn about that as well?

Redini strikes again. If these vidoes are so convincing why aren't they being posted publically. Why does Phillip Redmond feel the need to maintain control while people come to him to see the so called proof. I thought the Sheriff was a position of public service and that meant that the sheriff is to do what he can to help the public in anyway. Post the videos on your website, on your FaceBook page or spin out a copy in your wonderful enhancement room and send it to Jamie and let her post it on here. That would be less work and less time consuming thaen making schedules for someone to be there to show this information to people one at a time. There is obviously somting not up to par with the "evidence" that he feels he must maintain control. Not everybody is impressed with Phillip the Great and his peep show.

How about if Phil makes a public statement, not an issued statement and/or shows the video. That would be simpler. Where is the Burger Barn? Probably not as close as my computer. The Sheriffs office isn't as close as my computer. Instead of a citizen using their gas and time, how about the Sheriff using county equipment and time to just once post a video that he expects eveyone to drive one at a time to see. Matter solved. Unless of course it is an altered video or a different video than the one posted on the blog.

What I find ironic is that the only documentation which has been made available comes from the sheriff. Where's all the "proof" from the rest of you? Send it to Jamie and let her post it. Or post it yourselves on your own website. Do something other than hide behind "I'm too scared to do anything"

This whole thing is a result of that probation officer in mooresville (Daniel Cooke). She is the one that "says" "she" can identify both in the video. She went to lincoln pd to do so. She has a personal vandetta against both miller's. She has made numerous comments to people that is now in the process of bitting her in the ass. She was denyed a job with iredell county, and her "husband" was released from iredell prior to becoming employeed with MPD. PS. She talked to loud where there was a video at the Mooresville courthouse. Give it a few weeks, ALOT of people are going to be suprised.

Somebody posted this under a different article on here and I thought the post and the answer needed to be reposted here.

Anonymous said...I take it from the posts here, that the SBI is the only agency that has investigated Crone so the DA can prosecute if warrantied. Has the DA commented on any investigations into criminal misconduct other than Crone involving local law enforcement? I mean all these accusations here and the other post, surely someone that knows her can ask if there are any ongoing. Or is it like a few here said " election year feuding and bad politics"
That would at least confirm some of these people have actually providing some proof to corruption. Now if that has been done, then do we need more proof or we just wait for the state to get off their butts? Or do we take these posts for B. S. ?

The reply
Anonymous said... The DA is always unable to comment for professional reasons. That is part of what gives the appearance that nothing is going on. Yes it is election year, but these issues have been around for years. The Lincolnton incident is the first thing that got out from under them before they could squash it.

The posts are not B.S. at least the ones that I have seen. The stolen guns, failed drug tests, open affairs by the top brass, dropped charges, the list goes way past that. There are things needing to come out that haven't even been mentioned on here yet.

There are many good people at the ICSO that are working under the same conditions that Crone ran the department under only worse. People have tried to report things before and they got threatened, reprimanded, demoted or fired. On the other hand there are those in the inner circle that do as they please even it it involves breaking the law.

It is one of the most demoralizing situations that you can imagine. However you have to choose between keeping your mouth shut and keeping a job.

Information of activities gets around because everybody trusts somebody. People close to the source have people they trust and so on. Those who have been entrusted don't give their source away so by the time it gets to someone who wants to report it, there is no solid proof. You know it happened and you can see evidence of it, but it is not enough.

In the case where the guns were taken, everyone heard about it and that individual went from Detective to working in the jail until things cooled off. Obviously it was true as the information lined up with what was visible. He was permintted to keep his car and was moved back out into various othe positions over time. But he is still there. This same person was made a detective after completing Basic law Enforcement Training. ICSO plicy says that the requirements for being a detective are 3-5 years road experience which is a good policy. Imagine how demoralizing it was for seasoned officers who wanted that promotion and position but then had to watch it get handed to someone with no experience. Then to add insult to injury he gets to keep a job after stealing a gun.

Another Detective was moved to the jail after he had reportedly harrassed a victim that he was supposed to be helping. If it isn't true then why did he get placed in the jail. They tried moving him back out to the road and the wrong person found out and he was placed back in the jail. I don't think this was due to rumors.

These are just a couple of examples. Can you imagine working under these conditions? We have some really dedicated officers here who are willing to deal with the stress on the street and get beat around at the office as well.

I hope to see them get the help that they need. They are not in a position to help themselves. You can see with the video incident that even tape recorded and publically shown documentation is not enough. We need help in demanding investigations into the conduct outlined here. We all want to continue to serve the public and could do so much better if everything was as it should be.

The continuation of these activities over the years is proof of what happens when you wait on the state to do something.

5:58 Talk while you still have a platform. Phil Blocker can out arrest and out supervise Phil Redmond any day. The only handcuffs Phil R. uses are fuzzy pink ones. I'll bet Blocker will know what is going on. Phil Redmond has obviously developed memory loss or severe nearsightedness in his golden years. I didn't know about that or this, I don't know anything. That is so he can't get sued or indicted when it all comes down.

The Crone deal started out the same way. Allegations and requests for evidence. Just like with Crone it will come.

Sam said...

The good thing is that the more the Redmond supporters mouth off the more it fuels determination. Seems like someone would learn from others mistakes. While you are waiting on us to produce evidence, produce an article that Jamie published that was not legit after all the BS stopped. Here again, learn from the past.

jamie's article is clearly not factual regarding the location of miller

Here is another thought Geronimo. If the allegations are false and the statements are rumors, why spend so much time defending them? Only the guilty flee when no man pursueth and only the guilty explain when there is nothing to explain. If there isn't anything to cover up, quit trying to cover it up?

Anonymous said...

problem is the sheriff has made his info available -- he hasn't run from anything that I've seen. so we're back to the fact that the accusers are making allegations based on rumors and are refusing to produce anything. i don't know if the man is guilty of anything or not, but without evidence he is innocent. those who perpetuate rumors are equally to blame

Susan said...

6:53 He hasn't made it available to the public only for private viewing. Yeah that is real believable and you know better. Go blow smoke up somebody elses chimney. :) Same antagonistic crap that went on with the Crone defenders. It is amusing really. No need to respond to anymore. You just keep beating the same dead horse. Fact is you don't know what we know. Enjoy your moment in the sun.

Larry does the video you saw appear to be the same one that is on this blog only a clear version?

Larry Green said...

The video appears to be the same video -- no alterations or changes were evident -- no enhancement had taken place. The video from the Mooresville office was quite clear.

Honestly, once I walked up the hallway and saw Capt. Miller I was baffled as to how anyone could think he is the 2nd person in the video. To me, there is no resemblance at all. Mind you, I just turned 40 -- so my eyesight might not be that good :-)

Anonymous said...

Mr. Green, thank you for your reply. There are many who have worked with and known Capt Miller for a long time and they said they know it was Harold beyond a shadow of a doubt. I haven't seen the original so I can't say. Based on the tape shown here I would say that I can be 80% sure that it is him, which is why I want to see the clearer version. Features, glasses, mustache and mannerisms all give the appearance that it is Harold Miller. Did he have glasses and a mustache when you saw him today? I just want the clear video posted online and can't see any good reason why the Sheriff would deny that, especially if it clears Harold of any wrong doing.

Anonymous said...

Why would he release it no matter what he does he will be bashed, I believe D. Collins or his wife has a great copy, at least that is what they are telling. The Sheriff has proven it his not Miller, I don't believe he would risk the lawsuit since maybe Lincolnton PD named the wrong person, at it is an on going case. The second peron in the video is not wanted for a thing.

Anonymous said...

I would rather be bashed for showing proof than bashed for hiding it. And how would Redmond be laible for showing a tape that is clearing the person that you are saying Lincolnton PD named wrongly.

Unless you are still claiming that it is not Jamie Miller? Lincolnton never claimed to know who the second person was.

Also, you are correct that it is an on going case. The person in the video IS a wanted person that is what started this to begin with. Why doesn't Iredell have Jamie on their most wanted lit as someone pointed out on the other blog.

Here is some of ICSO most wanted list:
Devon Heggs fail to pay child support $412
Bernard McCelland child support $180
Robert Smith child support $510
Derrick Torrence child support $150

I am not sure what Jamie is wanted for other than the gift card use, how is what he is wanted for stack up to these child support charges? I know a bondsman is looking for him and understand it is for failure to appear. Redmond needs to do some things here to save his reputation or he can continue like this and keep his current reputation.

It always starts out as rumors with denials and cover ups. There were rumors about Senator John Edwards, South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford, President Bill Clinton, Gov. Mike Easley, Sheriff Gerald Hege, Evangelist Jimmy Swaggart, Cabarrus County Republican Commissioner Coy Privette retired pastor and former N.C. House member who got caught with a prostitute, Lincoln County Chief Deputy Barry Taylor, Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, Mooresville Police Chief John Crone, House Speaker Jim Black and many many more.

Now there are serious rumors about Sheriff Phillip Redmond.

Anonymous said...

In looking up names I ran across this information which may explain some things:

A state and federal corruption investigation called Operation Tarnished Badge lasted six years (through 2008) and has led to the conviction of at least 21 lawmen. Sheriff Glenn Maynor was sentenced to five years in prison for paying deputies to perform work at a personal fundraiser and lying to a grand jury by claiming he was unaware of his deputies selling counterfeit satellite TV cards.4

In a related article it is stated:
Prosecutors said the residents of Robeson County were the real winners after Maynor's guilty plea and sentence. "It gives them the opportunity to be free for the first time in a very long time from the political corruption that has been, as Mr. Holding said, haunting that county. I think that that is the important part," Assistant U.S. Attorney Frank Bradsher said.

Sound like what we have been reading on here from people who know? Also it took a six year investigation. I am sure that at no point could you "google" the sheriffs name and come up with proof as some have claimed they tried here.

Quick to judge I must say!! How many of you have ever served as a Public Officals or Public Servants? Very few I suppose, Well I have, and I find this quiet unfair. The most of everyone on here is questioning Phil Redmonds integrity and lack of follow through, First off HE didnt do it, second off it's called an "INVESTIGATION" people!! Phil Invited the young lady whos has numerous accomplishments in the Journalism field, but not so much in LAW-ENFORCEMENT, nor Govertment process. So educated? well you must be aware of the limitations on PUBLIC posting while an INVESTIGATION is ongoing!! Post it for public viewing, thats almost funny to me! Now Mr.Jamie Miller will GET COUGHT, Its only a matter of time and due process. Now for Miss Gatton not attending GOVT. meetings or closed door discussions tells me she is just like the rest of us and have to rely on HEAR SAY! Got facts other than WSOCs report? lets see em, I can cut,copy and paste News someone else discovers! You don't want to have the Govt meetings thats you choice, but just maybe at some point in your successful reporting career it would serve your following well! KEEP IT ABOVE THE BELT.

Struck a nerve did it? Good reason too. Nothing below the belt, someone keeps wanting to point to the rumor factor on this and I simply pointed out some of the other people that have been the center of allegations and rumors. This video that Sheriff redmond won't produce is only one of many issues that repeatedly swirl around him and some of his staff. Why are you beating on jamie over this? Can't say as I understand that. Jamie only asked some simple questions and asked for some videos to be posted. All of these other concerned posts are only being fueled by the lack of that video being made public. Tell Phil to take his time.

She has not accused anyone of anything, only asked questions that people don't want to answer. AND if it had not been for her, Crone would still be in power and taking Mooresville for a ride today.

Calm down Leroy. What investigation is on going? If it is the search for Jamie M. then show the video. If it is the investigation of Harold, that has been concluded, then you can show the video.

Or you can just keep it a secret and keep drawing attention to the other posts of interest on here that will be backed with documentaion soon enough. And there you go right back to the rumors thing again. Read slower this time:

There were rumors about Senator John Edwards, South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford, President Bill Clinton, Gov. Mike Easley, Sheriff Gerald Hege, Evangelist Jimmy Swaggart, Cabarrus County Republican Commissioner Coy Privette retired pastor and former N.C. House member who got caught with a prostitute, Lincoln County Chief Deputy Barry Taylor, Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, Mooresville Police Chief John Crone, House Speaker Jim Black and many many more.

Now there are serious rumors about Sheriff Phillip Redmond.

And yes you are an Iredell County employee. You obviously have a lot at stake here or you wouldn't be staying on here this late getting pissed over something that doesn't effect you. I actually never mentioned you being an Iredell County employee at least not in these posts. I see you must have been told to lay off the sauce until this is over. That will improve the posts but be hard on the nerves.

Another thing you said just now caught my eye:

"Also a video cannot be published by any Law-Enforcement agency for your viewing pleasure while an Investigation is on going, fact."

According to the Sheriff he released that to WSOC to air if they choose to. Boy there are WAY too many holes in this story. It is all just a matter of time.

Ok, I do respect your opinion, you are certainly entitled to that, I have NOT kicked Jamie, Its just all hear say and rumor mills, I have read post on here that has CLEARLY been applied for political gain! Thats sad, I still see no wrong doing on the Sheriffs part, he has to follow the investigative procedure, just as anyone else, He cant just start firing people on hear say. Like I said NO facts on here, my Office is filled with Law books and I can tell you at the end of the day its still non-factual hear say with NO facts, As you know we can probably find a little dirt on everyone, Im sure you would agree. Now public office is a very difficult position to be in, Its a never ending stream of trying to please everyone, and all of the "I PAY YOUR SALARY" and yes you do, but what is a happy medium for EVERYONE, every day your reminded of who put YOU there and we need a little favor or help with this, Its a very trying JOB, Yes I know this I have been there. So Iwould suggest everyone try and find conclusive FACTS before we start the fire pit!

Anonymous said...

You might have an office full of law books (I doubt it) but that doesn't make you a lawyer anymore than Redmonds hard working deputies make him a good person. You said:

"He cant just start firing people on hear say."

Within the last year, one of Phil's officers was fired for hearsay. The Sheriff and Harold were at the helm of that ship too. I am told that my fellow officer was not allowed to defend himself or have his supervisor present while in Redmonds kangaroo court. According to him he was suspended indefinately and told if he spoke to ANYONE other than his wife about the incident he would be charged with interfereing with an investigation. (Same use of terminology there. Interesting). Anyway he went home, thought it over and resigned.

He then tried to get unemployment until he was hired elsewhere and was denied. He appealed his case and told the investigating person that they needed to look into it better. He told him it was a hostile work environment. The decision was overturned and he is now receiving unemployment and has a document from Employment Security stating that he did nothing wrong and the Sheriffs office was at fault. So the Sheriff CAN fire someone based on hearsay, but like many of the other things he has done, it isn't very smart. I really don't think he has paid attention to how many people he has stepped on over the years but is probably starting to realize now.

Holy cow -- you post a link to an article and don't even quote it correctly:

2. The charges were for lying to a grand jury and misusing federal funds.

3. There is no mention of selling cable cards -- though one of the articles does indicate they stole satellite signals.

Here you go Leroy. I didn't write the article I just pasted the link and words.

Raleigh, N.C. — Former Robeson County Sheriff Glenn Maynor was sentenced Thursday to six years in federal prison as part of a six-year investigation into corruption in the county.

"I realize that I dropped the ball," a shaken Maynor said in court as he choked back tears.
He blamed his lack of oversight on trying to attend to family health problems at the time.
(Wow, that sound familiar)

Boyle questioned why the state hadn't cracked down sooner on corruption in Robeson County. State Bureau of Investigation Director Robin Pendergraft said after the sentencing that authorities have been working the case for six years.

SUMMARY FOR SATURDAY MARCH 6

Well the sun has risen again and Rhil Redmond is still refusing to publically show the video. Let's recap the events from last night.

Phils supporters say he can't publically post the video because it is still under investigation. "a video cannot be published by any Law-Enforcement agency for your viewing pleasure while an Investigation is on going, fact." The Sheriff has also said he released it to WSOC to show,so which is it?

And, what investigation is on going? If it is the search for Jamie Miller then show the video. If it is the investigation of Harold Miller , the Sheriff said that has been concluded and now you can post the video.

Redmonds team keeps saying that this is all rumors and heresay. It was pointed out that, "it always starts out with rumors There were rumors about Senator John Edwards, South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford, President Bill Clinton, Gov. Mike Easley, Sheriff Gerald Hege, Evangelist Jimmy Swaggart, Cabarrus County Republican Commissioner Coy Privette retired pastor and former N.C. House member who got caught with a prostitute, Lincoln County Chief Deputy Barry Taylor, Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, Mooresville Police Chief John Crone, House Speaker Jim Black and many many more. (I would like to add Tiger Woods to the most recent list)
Now there are serious rumors about Sheriff Phillip Redmond."

At this point Redmonds defender came unglued and made extensive use of the !!!! key and the cap button.

Redmonds team I suppose in defense of the Miller situation pointed out that (Redmond) ..."cant just start firing people on hear say." After which a post detailing an indefinate suspension was detailed on post 12:17 A.M. It was pointed out that Harold Miller ramrodded that whole deal.

Redmonds supporters also have also pointed out in the past that they have "Googled" Redmond and corruption and didn't have any luck finding anything. A post was made at 10:13 detailing a 6 year investigation on a NC Sheriff by the Feds and the State that ended in 2008. I am certain that at no point were you able to "Google" corruption in Robeson County and get search results.

We are also waiting on Mr. Green to tell us if the Harold Miller he saw had glasses and stache.

you putting me in the middle. I will address that at a later date, I only care about the video
because according to LPD that is Jamie Miller and he skip bond on my company Oct. 2009 and that brings me to 9:35 Jamie is wanted check NCIC , you are correct that FTA is a misdemeanor but it's the 20 plus Felonies that he missed court on that's the real problem for Jamie Miller.So that makes the warrant and yes there is a warrant for his arrest a little more serious than just a misd. for FTA. If anyone would happen to Jamie tell I said hello. Forgive me for my misspellings and grammar I'm just a dumb old Bail Bondsman.

Mr. Green, there were actually several other time that someone psoted the Google search. You were only one. I was just trying to make a point that while something is in the true investigative stage there is no information about that investigation other than what is leaked out.

Once it gets out that things are being looked into, it gives the suspects time to cover up their trail. Kind of like what could have happened with the video had it not been shown on WSOC.

I want to thank you for your effort into looking into the facts. The more help the better. You proved yourself to be very valuable in the Morresville P.D. problems and I am certain that you will be just as valuable here before all is done.

Maybe the bondsman bonded Jamie out because he knew Jamie's father was Cpt. Harold Miller and thought Jamie would never skip bail knowing how diligent his father and the Iredell County Sheriff's department would be in tracking him down if he did. You know Phil being the most honest and good man that he is and wanting to keep crooks off the streets so the citizens of Iredell County are safe. Boy did he get a big surprise, he's not even on Iredell County's most wanted list and he's been gone since Oct. 2009 and his dad's over the warrent squad.

I THINK REDMOND WAS INVOLVED IN SADDAM'S CAPTURE....THIS BLOGS TRYS TO LINK HIM WITH EVERYTHING....

Anonymous said...

Look, the whole point of this is that Jamie has serious felonies pending that he has skipped bond on. Now, if that truly is Jamie in the video, then you would think people would come forward to turn him in. Most of all, it that is he's father, shame on him, shame on the Sheriff! If it turns out to be his father, I feel he should be prosecuted as well. He is a high figure in the ICSO. Only time will tell.

David Collins said...

6:41pm (Doc) Would you please show me where I said I was mad at the Sheriff,I take full responsible for our skips always have and always will, all I was doing was clearing up the facts.

9:08 if you are chatting with the CAP poster, don't bother. Never argue with a stupid person. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Anonymous said...

Dave, don't bother going there unless you have lots of time and patience. That is one of the posters that are only on here to clutter up the blog in an attempt to defend the Sheriffs actions. You didn't say it and they know it. They are trying to play the victim card.

Keep up the professional work Dave.

David Collins said...

Thank you, I'm out of here.

Larry Green said...

Could you find out for us why Jamie Miller is not on the Iredell County's most wanted list?

You know, I've always wanted to know how agencies pick the folks for the top 10 list. I just may try and find out -- no promises though. Got a busy week coming up and not a lot of free time to do public work.

Thank you Mr. Green

The more this goes on the more things I have heard. Someone has told me about a man from troutman who was found with marijuana plants. He supposedly told the officers that he called the sheriff and they couldn't arrest him. I was told this man was never charged and that someone with the same name was listed in the record and landmark as a campaign contributor to the sheriff. This was told to be someone who owns a business. It concerns me to keep hearing things like this. If this is true it is not right.

Anonymous said...

I need to say that it may have only been one plant. It sounded like more the way it was told, but I am not sure.

Anonymous said...

6:59 again just like all these others nobody knows anything just rumors that people want to spread to cast doubt on the great job the Sheriff has done, I mean his deputies they must be happy to work look how hard they work it proves he is a great leader and know what has to be done.

I guess we shouldn't even consider the possiblilty that some of our public officials may not be honest. Let's just let them run things without question or accountability.

I believe that those on here that defend the Sheriff's honor without reserve must be part of the problem and are only protecting themselves.

WE are lucky we have such a good aggressive Sheriff, that kicks thug tail...Go Redmond their are those that only wish they could hold a candle to what your have done for Mooresville, and the rest of Iredell.....accusations are just rumors and lies until proven...its funny they all just come up now, oldest trick in the politic game.....I want to see what could anyone do better than you have on crime in this county

Victor Johnson, MVL. said...

Funny how many "rumors" keep surfacing. Seems to be a constant stream of information. Do we keep ignoring and passing them off as tricks of the political game? What ever happened to responsible citizenship and voter education?

Anonymous said...

6:34... What are the details of this? If it has any merit there should be a name. Especially if you claim he was listed in the R&L. How could you know that without even knowing the person's name? I am one of the people who wants to uncover corruption in government but you have to present facts in order for something to be investigated.

Anonymous said...

Here is some info for you "Victor Johnson". In a recent superviser meeting Chief Deputy Rick Dowdle reportedly told those at the meeting that he was on the clock and was only going to say this once. Everybody needed to remember who gave them a job over the last several years and who fed their family. He also said that there would be no retaliation for any comments made during the election.

If that last is true then Ricky D. won't mind this being posted here.

By the way, campaigning on duty and especially at a required employees meeting is illegal. That is why slick Rick pointed out that he was on the clock and was only going to say this once. That's like saying I'm only going to have this one affair. Their boldness/stupidity never ceases to amaze me.

I am sure that if asked, the Sheriff didn't know anything about this. There sure is a lot he doesn't know. Of course he was told at a Sheriffs convention that if you don't know about it you can't be (charged) or sued for it.

Anonymous said...

...The statement about only having one affair was in NO way intended to be a reflection on our Chief Deputy even though he was the subject of the same paragraph from which the statement was used. Our Chief Deputy is a man of of integrity, an example of leadership and moral conduct.

Jim R. said...

James T. (LT.) Now in this application, their should have been there;

their are those that only wish they could hold a candle to what your have done for Mooresville, and the rest of Iredell

You really need to polish that up because it gives you away every time.

Anonymous said...

"reportedly told those at the meeting" -- heresay. Stop with the "he said -- she said" crap and come up with facts. If you aren't privy to the conversation and don't have 1st hand account,then all you're doing is reporting gossip.

I'm all for reform of government and getting rid of corruption, but this is the problem with those who are on here posting info -- it's all gossip and rumors.

Anonymous said...

I suppose all of the supervisors can be questioned. Who does that? Phil can probably do an internal investigation on that as well. That should answer any questions that anyone has.

Is it true that the S.B.I. was called in to investigate Dennis when he got arrested? Why only call them for some things, I don't understand.

I agree I have made my choice Redmond they have tried everything to cast a bad light on the Sheriff, so we will not look at them or what are they doing. They way to tear a man down is to try to drag him down, even with lies..put your money where you mouth go public and prove it

Anonymous said...

Well that is all I care to talk about know 6:am gets here pretty quick. But to the nonbelivers: I know Redmond himself did not do some of these things. But if he is/was the sheriff you supporters say he is why has he not handled these issues more professionally. Plus some of you talking about his tuff on crime and arrests is a slap in the face of the men and women wearing the uniform. One of you tell me one time he has stopped a car or assisted one of his deputies on a call in the last 15 years and 4 months. Tell me one interview that lead to an arrest he conducted and the provided the statement required by law. When I can afford to eat a Cheesburger I go to a resteraunt. If it was delicious, I send my compliments and sometimes a tip to the cook. I never think the manager of the place did it for me.
But there you go people, plenty of names and facts you can check on. Just think, really all this stuff and no one has done anything about it. I am telling you this is just a small amount of stuff. But if one of them are true, what are you gonna do about it ?

Randall said...

Hey 10:53 the caps don't make anybody listen to you anymore. You only look like you are freaking out.

Next I would like to point out the obvious, dumb ass. This has been reported, over and over and over. Did you not read the posts? We did and that has been a continual problem with Redmond.

What makes you so sure that this is done by someone running for election? Obviously you and your boss have NO idea how many people Redmond has pissed off over the years.

I imagine it really hurt your feelings to see your name up there so many times as well, LT. I told you before that you better be one of the first people to get to the DA's office and start talking. There won't be but a couple of free passes.

Why wait till now? because he said people having been talking about the tough stance the Sheriff has on crime...THAT IS TRUE he is. This is the only way they feel they have a chance this is rumors that are uo to 15 years old some of the people have passed away, Anonymous run on facts, what can you do, why should your guy get elected that is what I want to know that is what keeps my family safe, I more determined now to go stand at a poll for Sheriff Redmond his camp has not come on here told the truth about his competition(no experience,no supervising experience, no budget experience, no drug investigation experience)I want everyone to know I have no vested interest in this race as I would have three months ago, but Redmond is a great Sheriff, people are jealous and want the power and will do nothing to get it. Just remember look at Redmonds experience, I am sure if this was going on and was illegal the SBI,FBI, And everyone would have a charge against him but they DO NOT so judge for yourself

Anonymous said...

Larry, none of this is hearsay, it is information widely known for years. What give it the appearance of hearsay is the amount of information because it seems impossible that someone has gotten away with so much for so long. Well, they have and that is what makes people so hesitant to speak in person about it.

You are really good at getting to the truth. You did it with Crone and I know you can do it here as well. Please.

"Sheriff Redmond his camp has not come on here told the truth about his competition(no experience,no supervising experience, no budget experience, no drug investigation experience)"

Actually I have seen that posted numerous places about them and I commend them on their restraint for not responding.

You have better stop and think back to the MANY people you have screwed over the years. Of course I doubt that Redmond even remembers. Once he is done with someone he tosses them to the side like a knawed chicken bone.

Many, many, many people over the years. That is why it is so relavant to start back to the mid 90's. Many people screwed over and it also shows a pattern of illegal behavior over a long period of time.

When you have an ego the size of a mountain you don't see the crowd turning on you until it is too late. You can guess at who you know may want you to look bad now, but it will be almost impossible to remember those along the way.

I have a question for you "concerned"? Why after all of the hoopla has harold not located his son and had him picked up? Phil will do anything for a vote. Don't tell me he suddenly has limits.

And another thing. I understand that the brain cancer thing was a tongue in cheek comment because supposedly that line was used to get some charges to go away in the past. Sick, sick individuals. No limits. If this was a limbo contest instead of a Sheriffs election, Phils team would win without a doubt. Limbo, how low can you go?

Go ahead and have your fun. Everything Phil has instructed you to do will be nowhere in his memory when the crap hits the fan. he probably will develop alzheimers like the murder suspect and won't even remember your name.

I knew Phil when you were eating dirt wearing a soiled diaper. You aren't the first person to drink the Koolaid. Sad that you can't see that.

To Concerned

Maybe Jamie should interview the little old lady that got her gift cards stolen from her at church and see how she feels about the situation. I'll bet she has two wonderful children also, Jamie should interview them too. Maybe Jamie should interview all the victims involved in the other 20 plus felonies Jamie Miller has. Don't try and blame other people for Jamie Millers mistakes, if his kids , girlfriend, sister and family are getting hurt over this the only one to blame is Jamie Miller and those who enable him to continue his life of crime.

Let me teel you how far me and Phil go back. In the 90's he used to have a habit of turning a taperecorder on at his desk and then calling people in to talk.

THEN he would excuse himself and leave the room to see what was said about him. Talk about paranoid and controlling. The sad thuing is that he is getting worse and he is getting too old to keep his lies straight. Of course he has told so many now that he has had to tell 100 more to cover the first ones. What goes around, comes around sooner or later.

Don't know why you are getting so upset. I got the 20 plus felonies from the post from the bondsman he skipped out on. So tell the bondsman to get his facts staight. Since you apparently know all about his life you tell us just how many felonies it is and what they are for. Also, whether or not Jamie Miller is the man in the vidio( which I have been told by ones that know him well it is ,and the news identified him as such) the fact remains he is a wanted man , you cannot change this. So your going to sue everyone because he is a wanted man. And you mention Harold Miller, seems he did make a statement on one of these posts that it was not him ( Harold) in the vidio but he never said anything about it not being Jamie. Seems to me that would have been the time to state it wasn't Jamie if he knew it was not his son. And to any other explanations that it wasn't Jamie, too much time has passed by now for any story that comes up to be believable. And another thing if you knew Jamie Miller was not in the state, sounds like you know where he is, and maybe his sister does as well , why don't either one of you call law enforcement and have him picked up.

Also, sounds like you know so you tell us just how many felonies is it and what are they for. I hope you realize how pathetic you sound defending a man that everyone knows is a criminal. Even if it is not Jamie in the vidio ( and I am betting it is) the fact remains he is still a wanted man, can't change that. About Harold Miller, I think he posted on one of these blogs that it was not him ( Harold ) in the vidio but he mentioned nothing about it not being Jamie. Wonder why? And please tell me what was the post that was intimidating to Jamie's sister. And tell me also if alot of people are going down for this one , down where are they going and who is going to take them down there?

If they had proof of that it would be plastered all over the internet and on every news agency that would agree to carry it.

We are still waiting on the videos that WSOC was given to be shown. If their information was wrong the first time wouldn't they have aired that by now to get themselves off the hook? I am certain of it and so is everyone else.

The story just gets weaker and weaker.

Why didn't harold say in his statement that it was not Jamie? Why did he only deny that it was him? That is another basic interview technique blunder it is called a partial admittance of the truth. Go ahead and admit to part of the truth to try to gain credibility. Maybe he intended to defend Jamie and the escape goat ate the cue cards.

I bet that 99% of the ones posting on this blog, don't know any of the people that are in question here. It sounds to me like a bunch of unemployed people with to much time on their hands. Wake up, cancel your welfare checks, and get a job. I happen to know there is a certain Lincolnton police officer that lives VERY close to Harold, (i won't say HER name)who has been taking pictures of the people coming in and out of Harold driveway, trying to get WSOC 9 to buy them and do a report. Now this to me is a sick person. From what i understand her husband all but got is ass stomped when he made a comment to harold about all of this. Just another perfect example of a nose-e-e-e-e- busy-body, that wants what she can't have, and will go to great lenghts,even lies, to try an achive that. Maybe her husband being arrested for child porn, or him being a drunk,and pothead should be the next topic on this site.

Anonymous said...

Now why would a Lincolnton PD officer have any interest in this whole thing? It has already been verified by the Redmond defense team that everything about Lincolnton and Zaxbys is a lie. According to them, Linconlton is in line for a lawsuit and that is why they won't release the video.

Gene said...

And you are also saying that Harlod, a top law enforcement officer in Iredell County all but stomped someone's ass when someone mentioned this to him. Keep testifying on their behalf.

And what photos could someone have that could be of any value? Harold has done nothing wrong. And what could there be to report on?
