It is a lot harder to get tickers thrown out in Pike County compared to 5 or 10 years ago but it is still very doable if you know the right people. The main reason it is harder in Pike County now is when a few years ago the former Pike County corner's son(the name slips me right now)was in a bad car accident on Buckleys Creek and he killed a woman and her unborn child and they were on the way to the hospital in Pikeville because she was in labor. The guy that hit her was either drinking or on drugs and was going very fast and he had previously had several tickets thrown out by the judges in Pike County so it came down pretty hard on them if I remember correctly as it should have.

I remember this story. The family's name was Thornsberry (sp?).
