Some local postings on the subject...
Strip Club Manager Guilty...Yeah! Right!
Daytona Beach is a city of corruption and conspiracy. If you believe the State’s Attorney, they took a major crime boss of the street today. Lollipops Gentlemen’s Club Manager Sean Bishop was found guilty of violating campaign contribution laws and sentenced to 180 days in jail. Bishop allegedly ‘gave’ $1,500 to three people to support City Commission candidates Sheila McKay and Paul Zimmerman.
During Bishop’s sentencing hearing on Friday Zimmerman even stated, “You’ve got the wrong guy.”
That didn’t stop Judge Walsh for going well beyond the six month probation state sentencing guidelines recommended and placing Bishop in jail, with no bond or appeal. It’s good Walsh is an elected judge.
Bishop has so many friends locally, it shouldn’t be hard to get this weak minded fool un-elected.
The State Attorney’s office spent over three years and $800,000 to get Bishop. They also violated Federal election laws by releasing information of the ‘ongoing criminal investigation’ which influenced the election in favor of Mike Shallow, Sheila McKay and Paul Zimmerman for a time. We neglected to mention that ‘Tallywacker’ Shallow was also a past contributor to State’s Attorney Tanner’s campaign.Tanner’s office also violated the civil rights of at least 12 campaign contributors including Bishop by seizing contributions made to candidates they thought might be tainted but had no proof.
Since Tanner and city attorney Marie Hartman are so strongly dedicated to honesty in the election process, we can only assume other arrests and trials of major Daytona Beach campaign contributors will begin shortly. Yeah ! Right!

Sean definitely got the raw end of a 3 year investigation fueled by my win in Federal Court against the city of Daytona Beach. This whole case was about bundling of checks to be picked up by a runner to go to the candidates and allegations of reimbursment by Sean of the money. The State leaned on every check writer , threatening to arrest family, until finally one guy changed his story to get Sean charged (contradicted prior sworn testimony). That guy claimed that money he recieved on a regular basis "under the table" was to pay him back for his $500 contribution.... what he wasnt telling them was that he recieved that amount every week for years. So what appeared to be reimbursement was in fact regular pay. I was on the phone with Sean and read him the thread. He was cheering in jail!! He says thanks for the support and Rumpshaker will have 2 fresh motors and be on the water July 4th weekend for some terrorizing of the river and offshore!!
