Wise County was home to the guy who
skipped out near the end of his drug trial right before the jury delivered its sentence -- which turned out to be probation. But, sheesh, the guy pictured above went home before the jury delivered its verdict in a sexual assault case and killed himself. He never got to hear the jury read "
Not guilty." Oh, my.
As a sidenote, I know of at least two Wise County residents that killed themselves when faced with sexual assault of a child allegations.
