Remove those BLINDERS Jake the beat goes on.
Need we have more blinders is the question we have Fake Jake and & Deputy Dawg Duncan.
And the investigation will continue, and continue and continue. Salisbury doesn’t have anyone with enough sense to conduct an investigation beyond what a third grader could do. Salisbury PD is the laughing stock of the eastern shore and beyond. They need to clean house there and get some leaders who know what they are doing and really care about the city, not just playing footsie with Jake Day.
