Owes this money, it appears the v. A. Owes a lot of people in arkansas a lot of money. And has not been very forthcoming in paying those bills. Its another thing that makes it such that the trust issue that we talk about. The other problem is, if you dont pay your bills theyre going to quit dealing with you.

The sixth amendment says that you get a trial, it also says you get a speedy trial. I do not what happened to him in prison, i can only imagine. He tried to commit suicide four times.
