Court Dismisses Hush Money Case Involving Thomas

Judge Eugene Thomas in municipal court dismissed the case against Roland Thomas after reviewing incidents of a night near Greenwood cemetery. The matter centered on whether Thomas claimed to be a policeman to extract cash from two joyriders. Dr Charles Bible testified he and a young woman were approached, threatened with arrest, and given a demand for money. Bible said Thomas pretended to be an officer but later admitted promising to wait for police, and an actual officer arrived, leading to the payout of two five dollar bills. The court found Thomas did not impersonate a county officer and Bible knew he was not a policeman, so the charge was dropped.
