CHANGE of HEART

A supporter of Alamo's on the Fouke council is T.O. Hardin. He wasn't always a friend to the church. When they were caught stealing city water and illegally dumping their sewage, Hardin condemn the followers saying "they should have known better and they have nobody to blame but them selves." But something changed T.O.'s mind. He now votes the same as Alamo's "yes man" Ben Edwards on city business. But T.O. has a shady past and criminals stick together.
Hardin owns a auto/ junk yard located at his residence. After receiving help from ex- mayor Cecil Smith, T.O. was able to apply for and is now on disability for a bad back. He owns some of Fouke's run down rental houses. There has been several strange incidents surrounding Mr. Hardin that has affected several families in Fouke. Since facts began to fade over the years, some will be left out for now. What will be posted is as stated, the truth as we know it, from involved family members. It is a fact that he was questioned by authorities in the murder case of Monica Sanders, but was never charged with anything relating to that crime. Hardin's daughter, by his wife Pam Cox, was a good friend of Monica's. Some believe that if Monica had been with her friend Olean ( T.O.'s daughter) that night, she would not have been murdered. The mother of his children told that he locked her in a room at his shop and would not allow her to use the phone, or have any contact with the outside world. He forbid her to speak to her mother. She had two boys by T.O.and she got out. He was physically, mentally and verbally abusive to her. Laquita Moore said years ago, before Alamo got here, that T.O. was setting up towers around Fouke to be able to listen in to peoples homes. Well guess who showed up a few years later, listening in on the citizens? Laquita was called a mental case. It's been told by family members that he literally stalked, raped and drove her crazy. T.O. is now with Yvonne Robertson Bobo. When she was a young girl , of high school age, she told her family members that T.O. had sexually assaulted her. She did not go to the police. He has called the mayor a liar and insults him and citizens that attend the meetings if he gets angry. It upsets T.O. when citizens show up for the council meetings. He's been use to nobody being there watching him for so long, now he knows his every move is noticed. This is a man that needs to be voted out. Finding someone to run against him may be hard. One such candidate going against him, had their lug nuts loosened during a election in the past.
