Taxpayers are paying an outrageous amount for a do-nothing County Chairman!
Taxpayers are literally taken to the cleaners! Marcello Banes, Stephanie Lindsey, and Jumbo Judge Melonie Bell conspire to increase their compensation!
A-Team Grifters Club Members!
A brand-new SUV, an office with a full-time secretary, full benefits including healthcare, cell phone, full time security at the office, and a Newton County credit card were not enough for this grifter. He and the Jumbo Judge Melanie Bell got the taxpayers to sue for more pay. Incredible. Stephanie Lindsey billed the taxpayers almost $50,000 for this failed effort.

In addition to these insults, Banes gets caught abusing his Newton County credit card. He was paying for dry cleaning, meals ranging from the Waffle House, Red Lobster, and every dining experience he wanted to enjoy. The grift was so strong that the lazy local District Attorney Opened an Investigation. Please!

In the middle of all this nonsense, he opened a trucking business with Stephanie Lindsey. You would think that all these shenanigans would help him to afford a home for his family. Not one house is in his name in the entire county. He is a poseur of the first order.

Grief-Stricken Son Speaks About Loss of Parents in 2016 Crash Blamed on Former Airman
Shaquille Lindsey gets 6 months in prison under a plea deal for the deaths of Ruben and Bertha Betancourt in a head-on collision near Lompoc
During a sentencing hearing Friday morning for a former airman who pleaded guilty to vehicular manslaughter, a Lompoc couple’s sobbing son shared about the traumatic loss of his parents in the 2016 crash that also injured him.
The tearful testimony in Santa Barbara County Superior Court occurred during the victim impact statements portion of the sentencing hearing for Shaquille Lindsey, 26, of Georgia.
In January, Lindsey pleaded guilty to a pair of gross vehicular manslaughter charges stemming from the crash that killed Ruben Betancourt, 51, and his wife, Bertha, on Aug. 28, 2016.
Prosecutors alleged that Lindsey had alcohol and marijuana in his system plus had been using his cellphone and speeding when he crossed the double yellow lines on Santa Lucia Canyon Road. The defense team denied the alcohol, marijuana and cellphone allegations.
Under a plea deal, Lindsey was sentenced to 180 days in jail and three years of felony probation. Among other terms of his sentence, Lindsey’s driver’s license was suspended for three years.
On Friday morning, Juan Carlos Betancourt recalled being loaded into the ambulance and hearing the paramedics report on the crash victims’ conditions.
“I hear them say two code greens were going to be transported to the hospital and two code blacks,” he said. “After hearing that code black, my body did not known how to react. … A few minutes later, it came to me what it meant, and I felt my heart and soul break.”
Ruben and Bertha Betancourt
“I experienced the worst pain ever. I had lost both of my parents,” he said, adding that he thought of his three siblings and other family members.
In addition to physical injuries, including a fractured sternum and ribs plus internal bleeding, he said he remains haunted by the crash and still deals with nightmares and depression.
Surgical scars serve as regular reminders of the family’s loss, Betancourt said.
“It reminds me of how I miss them, how I want to see them, how I want to hear them, how I want to kiss them and hug them, but all I have left is a piece of concrete on the ground and a visit to the cemetery,” he said.
One of the Betancourts’ daughters, Teresa Servin, recalled her mom as “tiny but feisty, and she was very lovable.”
Ruben Betancourt had been active helping others involved in recovery programs for alcohol addiction.
“I know that he saved a lot of lives,” Servin added.
“They didn’t have any education, but they were very wise,” she said of her parents.
Son-in-law Luis Servin recalled Ruben and Bertha Betancourt being hardworking, lovable, caring individuals.
'We will always have this pain. We will always be heartbroken,” he said.
He also criticized the sentence that Lindsey received.
“If this is the best our criminal justice can do, I find that offensive. I find that demeaning,” he said. “We’ve been dragged through court for four years, and for us to know that defendant will only get six (months) is just unbelievable.”
After the hearing, he said it was “just mind-blowing” that the California Highway Patrol was not initially allowed to handle the investigation. The Air Force claimed jurisdiction.
Lindsey, who had been discharged from the Air Force because of marijuana usage, according to court documents, returned to the Central Coast that weekend to celebrate his birthday.
The case initially landed in the federal court system after a federal grand jury indicted Lindsey, but a judge later agreed with the defense challenge based on jurisdictional issues.
Assistant U.S. Attorneys Julian Andre and Joanna Curtis were sworn in as special deputy district attorneys to continue prosecuting the case after charges were filed in Santa Maria Superior Court.

Is Marcus Jordan a Pastor or a Poseur? Marcus was claiming his personal home as a church for tax purposes.
Marcus Jordan Helped the Johnson Crime Family Avoid Paying Their Fair Share of Taxes! https://judgehoracejjohnsonjrjudicialcenter.org/
Marcus was a Newton County tax assessor before becoming the tax commissioner. He was responsible for making sure the value of each property in Newton County was properly assessed for proper tax payment. His home was registered as a church before coming to Covington.
His history of slippery tax evaluation on his personal residence made him a perfect candidate for helping other slippery characters like himself avoid paying their fair share of property taxes. The Judge Horace J. Johnson family got generous tax concessions on their Johnson Terrace property due to his looking the other way.
His claim to be a pastor is best described as church services being held in his home. He wants to be the voice of the Community as Commission Chairman. Do you want his religious history to be the source of future conversation about your community? Do you want to pay taxes for the wealthiest property owners in Newton County?
