Update On Hick's Road-Runner-Offer

Remember when Crazy Stick-Road Dude ran Hick off the gravel road a couple weeks ago? Something may come of it.

We got home from a 3-day trip on Wednesday evening, and saw a message from Monday afternoon. It was from the local prosecuting attorney's office. The victim's advocate. Hick called back and left a message. Heh, heh. I'd told him: "Good luck getting a live person at 4:45."

Hick wasn't sure what it was about. Not that he's a perpetual victim, with a lot of court cases pending. He's supported Back-Creek Neighbor Bev in her court dealings with Crazy Stick-Road Dude. He's on the legal paperwork for the minor owners of HOS House. And we have that complaint against the weirdo who punched a dent in A-Cad. Then there's a theft from his Storage Unit Store a few weeks ago. So Hick was eager to find out what this was about.

He got a message on Thursday, that a call would be made to him at 10:00 this morning. No word on that yet, since I write a day ahead. Normally, there's an in-person meeting with the "victim" before proceeding with prosecution, but these days that is discouraged, so a phone interview will do.

Yes, it's about prosecuting Crazy Stick-Road Dude for running Hick off the road. I don't think there's enough evidence for that. But Hick thinks maybe they are tired of having complaints filed against Crazy Stick-Road Dude. Maybe he'd been warned about causing any more problems on the gravel road. Or maybe he did something when the Deputy tried to talk to him right after the incident. You never know. Some people bring problems on themselves.

Anyhoo...Hick was left with the impression that there wasn't a strong chance of prosecution, after talking to the Deputy that day. Like when he said if Hick had been hit, he could arrest the guy right then. And that Hick should have left SilverRedO in the position where he was run off the road.

We'll see what happens during the call.
