LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. - Sept. 17, 2013 - PRLog -- By Kenneth Stepp

Some people may wonder why I became interested in Snellville politics and why I continue to be involved. The answer is simple. I’m an investigator and my interests lie in places that need to be investigated and exposed. When I saw so much unethical activity in Snellville, I started looking into things and what I found was more troubling than I imagined.

The problem that stuck out like a sore thumb was a self-proclaimed ethics watchdog by the name  of George Anderson. I asked myself why on earth would someone from Rome, GA come all the way to Snellville to file a complaint that seemed like more than an vicious attempt to slander a city councilman. The obvious answer was that somebody had paid him to do it.

I had already investigated all the council members and I knew who was clean and who was dirty. So I also knew that Anderson’s charges against Tom Witts were false. I also discovered that a lot of the wording in Anderson’s claim was the same as what former council member Robert Jenkins had used at a council meeting. So it all started to fit together. It seemed obvious that a group of people in Snellville had hired Anderson to do some character assassination.

A little more investigation turned up connections between Jenkins, former council member Warren Auld, former mayor Emmett Clower, current council member Mike Sabbagh and current mayor Kelly Kautz. Someone else whose name turns up a lot is Randy Simpson.

Then I found the piece of the puzzle that put it all together. Apparently, after just about every council meeting Kautz and Sabbagh visited Dwight Harrison and spent several hours with him. And when mayor Kautz’s lawsuit against the other council members came to court Harrison was there. Why would he do that unless he had a very big interest in Snellville politics and maybe even an investment?

So here’s my theory. It is my belief, based on the evidence and history I have studied for over a year, Dwight Harrison is trying to buy control of the Snellville city council so he can build a liquor store and so he can ram the Evermore CID down the throats of the property owners on Highway 78 east of where the CID ends now. Pure and simple, I think Harrison wants to use the city for his own purposes. I believe he already controls Kautz and Sabbagh and now he’s running the campaigns of his brother Dexter and Alisa Boykin trying to get them elected so he has the votes he needs to do whatever he wants. If Harrison gets control of four city council members, I don’t think there’s any question, the taxpayers in Snellville will end up paying a hefty price. City council members cannot serve two masters.

Sounds like a conspiracy theory doesn’t it? But the more you look into what goes on in Snellville, the more my theory appears to be accurate. And based on some very convincing evidence, I firmly believe that when voters make their choice in this election, they’ll be choosing whether they want a council that works for them, or for someone who doesn’t even live in the city. the wrong decision will end up being very expensive for Snellville taxpayers.

More to come….
