" Jez613, Yes K McDaniel had rough way 2 go, but only by OWN CHOICE! I'm mother of his kids. He USED 2 b good hearted person--he had every chance n the world 2 b a better person after accident that left him a parapalegic, but he CHOSE NOT 2 B! He chose meth as his soulmate--over his own kids/family! He chose 2 sit n that wheelchair& rot! He lost rite 2 call himself dad 2 girls yrs ago 4 THIS EXACT REASON! This does NOT affect my girls-they have no idea the kind of person their dad became(they live off good memories& pics of him) &that's all they'll ever know. Its time he paid 4 his actions!! Regardless, may God b w them all. "

" K. McDaniel has had a rough way to go. He is family. I guess his demons are stronger than he is. He is a good hearted person, just chose the wrong path in life. It breaks my heart to see this, although I am not in any way condoning the behavior. He and Scott both have children, my heart goes out to the kids who have had their lives turned upside down by repeated stupid behavior. "

" of course the police have a scale,they brought it from home haha. It just means that with it all in separate baggies it is also a sales charge instead of a possession charge alone. One more thing to keep them in jail or headed to prison. Hopefully not just probation. I know for Scott it is not a first time in any of those categories, possession, jail or prison. Looks like none of the above worked. "

" Don't the authorities have a scale? 22 bags could be a ton or 22 small amounts. I am not being picky but I just want the real facts. "
