Carroll County Judge David Writer ejected a resident who was addressing the county’s quorum court during its regular meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 21.
Eric Scheunemann has addressed the court multiple times at recent meetings about the condition of Spring Valley Road. Scheunemann said Writer, who before being elected county judge was the county’s road foreman, has refused to maintain the road. He presented justices of the peace with what he described as documentation that the road is a county road and not a private road.
Scheunemann said the road has been maintained under previous county judges. He said Writer has given “one fraudulent excuse after another.” He also cited a section of state code saying that the county judge is to ensure maintenance of county roads.
“So he’s capricious and arbitrarily, willfully disregarding the state code that requires him to maintain a county road system,” Scheunemann said.
Writer interjected at that point.
“OK, you go sit down,” he told Scheunemann.
“Thank you, sir,” Scheunemann replied.
“I’m tired of your lying,” Writer said. “You can tell one lie right after another.”
“It’s documented,” Scheunemann said.
Writer said he has a book that lists the county roads and Spring Valley Road is not listed.
After Scheunemann started to reply, Writer interrupted him.
“Goodbye. Get out. Go,” the judge said, raising his voice slightly.
“Thank you, sir,” Scheunemann said as he left the courtroom. “Happy Thanksgiving.”
