This whole "Damage Control" agenda was recently cooked up by an incompetent Local Media- who are more afraid of the B.O.E., than reporting their corruption, AND a lousy Augusta School Board! Misconduct by Kim Davis, has forced Frank Roberson to keep the lid on revealing more injustice & corruption by the B.O.E. Administrators, whom are also afraid of the community finding out -how really scandalous THEY ARE, and always have been for years! Consistenly, employing unqualified, uncertified, and incompetent principals & teachers (mostly females who hate good men)!
The Local Media are idiots, instead of accurately reporting the news on 6/5/2013, they with the blessing of the B.O.E., chose to railroad an Honorable man & Church Pastor along with followers and church members, who are all good parents with legitimate concerns, and evidence to prove all of the misconduct allegations against The Richmond County School Board & especially Dishonest School Principal Kimberly Davis! Rumors are the Media and Board Members was bribed by Davis, Copeland Teachers & Roberson to keep their mouths closed! All to conceal corruption, and protect a psychotic school principal who did, and has been mistreating & wrongfully suspending children for years!
In Davis's televised response to her accusers; she & the Copeland staff are so stupid, they couldn't even get Dr. Beckles's name right, they kept calling him Mr. Green, and witnesses heard him, repeatedly tell the school staff & Davis, that his name was "Rev. Dr. Beckles", and he had always signed his name that way! Tyrone McCord, lied when he stated that Dr. Beckles told him the opposite!
If this incompetent principal & lousy B.O.E., cant' even get his name right, How are we to still believe their lies, about being able to effectively run an elementary school with no misconduct?!?
When a Teacher at Copeland (Ms. Wynn) was recently arrested for locking a child in the Closet!
THAT'S WHAT PROMPTED REV. BECKLES & OTHER PARENTS TO START QUESTIONING KIM DAVIS'S LEADERSHIP!
Because She allowed it to happen, and she never fired the Teacher!
I REST MY CASE!
Roberson & Davis are Liars! THERE IS A PROBLEM IN RICHMOND COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS, especially when it's educators keep lying to the community who pay their salaries! The local media didn't even follow the group of parents out of the B.O.E., bldg., because they all were busy conspiring to conceal all the facts or events, and print lies in The Augusta Chronicle, to cover up the injustice toward children, by making Roberson & the B.O.E., look good! The Media deliberately omitted slander & verbal attacks Roberson & B.O.E Staff made against Rev. Beckles and the parents- THAT'S WHY THEY LEFT!
McMannus printed that she (6/6/2013) asked scandalous Fire Chief Chris James, about Rev. Beckles's career as a Firefighter, and James lied, stating that Rev. Beckles hadn't worked there in several years. When in fact he had been employed at Augusta Fire Department for two years, and only stopped working, because his was injured on Duty, and was receiving paychecks then- Worker's Comp. Benefits, until 2011! And it was ruled that it was Chris James's fault for being injured! He was the Training Supervisor for The Fire Department, and he allowed & encouraged firefighters to physically attack, mistreat each other causing injuries, and he would deny medical treatment to new firefighters (as witnessed by many firefighters including Rev. Beckles & Sloan Griffin) and they reported their concerns to The Augusta Chronicle in (2010). Which caused Chris James & Chief Willis to be investigated, and in 2012, Chief Willis was fired for misconduct! Chris James (a character witness? Don't make me laugh!) His Augusta Fire Department as also (like the Augusta Police Dept., & School Board) have been documented & investigated for crimes, corruption, racism and scandalous misconduct behavior FOR YEARS!

The Augusta Chronicle continues to print more lies: in their 6/8/2013 issue They printed that they were voted as being the best newspaper in America! By an organization that doesn't even exist!
Tracey McMannus also lied in her 6/6/2013 issue, stating that she contacted the Human Resource Dept. of New Orleans Police Dept., when they told me, she never called them, to check Dr. Beckles employment history with them. And in New Orleans; Security Officer & Police Officer- ARE CONSIDERED THE SAME JOB! And no matter what law enforcement agency you are with- YOU WORK WITH THE NEW ORLEANS POLICE DEPARTMENT!
Plus she never produced the name of the New Orleans person that she allegedly contacted!
The Augusta Chronicle (as witnessed by several parents) did not state all the facts pertaining to the 6/5/2013 B.O.E. Meeting, and Tracey McMannus and her friend Susan McCord (another lousy & racist reporter), committed to helping the corrupt Principal, PTA President, & B.O.E., cover up their incompetence and conceal the truth! Woolfolk "The phony", and his "so-called" group of parents advocating for Davis, were mostly Teachers and School Personnel- NOT PARENTS OF CHILDREN THAT GO TO COPELAND! The Chronicle & Media erroneously stated that Davis's Supporters also had a Petition of Signatures to keep Davis as Principal, was never presented or produced! (because there was no petition, yet they are calling parents & Rev. Beckles LIARS?)

Parents looking to bring awareness to bullying issue in schools By: Hope Jensen - Updated: Fri 6:29 PM, May 03, 2013 • Parents looking to bring awareness to bullying issue in schools News 12 First at Five / Friday, May 3, 2013 AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- An Augusta father says he kept his son home from school Friday morning for fear he'd be picked on by bullies. Rev. Dr. Frank Beckles, Jr., then turned to school officials for help but says they offered little. It's a story we hear from many of you parents concerned about out-of-control bullying. Dr. Beckles works at the Augusta Christian Academy, and is Director of the Children’s Christian Center. He waited two months before he contacted News 12. He said he wanted to give the school time to respond and take action, but when he says nothing changed, that's when he decided enough was enough. "One day I was walking to the bus stop and this girl she slapped me in my face, " said Copeland Elementary School fourth grader Chris Beckles. "I fell to the ground, my glasses fell to the ground and broke." Chris went to his bus driver, but he says he got no response, so he went home to his dad . "I, of course, was upset; I went to the school, went to the principal's office, " said his father. Dr. Beckles says he spoke to the principal's secretary who had Chris and a witness write up statements about what happened. "I watched them do that and she assured me everything would be handled and I said, 'Great, I'm going to work, I'm already late, I'll leave it in your hands, '" Dr. Beckles said. Two months later, he says he still hasn't heard anything and the bullying has not stopped. "Some other kids [are] trying to pick on me, but I ignore them, " Chris said. "The bullying kept continuing, so I was forced to take my son to school, which is putting me out of my way. You know, I've got a job and I've got to support my family, " Dr. Beckles said. So he reached out again, but he says he still isn't getting answers and now he doesn't know where to go. "What is the role of the school? I mean their job is to help protect our kids when we bring them to the school. Parents count on them to do that, " he said. As a mentor for kids from all over the area, Dr. Beckles says he knows it's not just his son. Bullying is a growing problem, and he's hoping that by bringing awareness to the issue something will be done. "Wake up and do something about it, " he said. Dr. Beckles said one of the biggest issues seems to be a breakdown in communication between the bus drivers, the principals and the Board of Education. He says issues seem to get passed on to the next person, making it difficult to find a solution to the problem. News 12 reached out to the principal of Copeland Elementary and didn't hear back but did speak with Superintendent Frank Roberson. He says the bus stop is an extension of the school and they do their best to look into every report of bullying there and at the schools, but unfortunately, they can't catch everyone. He says he'll look into this particular situation. http://www.wrdw.com/home/headlines/Parents-looking-to-bring-awareness-to-bullying-issue-schools-206019021.html ______________________________________________________________________________ Parents Petition To Have Copeland Elementary School's Principal Replaced Posted: May 31, 2013 5:31 PM EST Updated: Jun 01, 2013 3:55 PM EST By Randy Key, WJBF Web Content Producer - By Tyrone McCoy, WJBF Photojournalist – Augusta, GA - Some Parents at Copeland Elementary School say Principal Kimberly Davis has lost control of the school, and they've signed a petition demanding that she be replaced. Rev. Dr. Frank Beckles, Jr., says his son's glasses were broken when was bullied and Principal Davis failed to do anything about it. So, he took his issues up with the Richmond County Board of Education. "I spoke with Mrs. Mizorah Ash, who assured me that everything would be taken care of and, of course, it wasn't, " Dr. Beckles says. Another parent, Iiesha McClendon, also spoke out against the principal at Copeland Elementary School. She says Davis sent her child home from school, without a write-up, in the car of a faculty member. The outraged mother took the issue straight to the principal. "The way she talked to me was like I was a two-year-old child, " McClendon says. Like Dr. Beckles, McClendon says she then turned to the Richmond County Board of Education, speaking with Deputy Superintendent Tim Spivey, but that appears to be as far as her complaint went. Richmond County Schools Superintendent Frank Roberson says this is the first he's heard of these accusations, but that he intends to resolve them. "If there are any issues, I would encourage any credible parent to bring them to my attention. My door is open." Some teachers also appear to be concerned about how discipline is handled in Richmond County. A Craigslist posting by someone claiming to be a teacher is titled "Richmond County Teachers Are Not Animal Wranglers". The post accuses the Board of Education of being "clueless" and not telling the truth. The Board of Education is also dealing with several harrassment suits. Still, the Superintendent says things are under control. "Mr. Roberson, is there a problem in Richmond County schools?" we asked. "There's not a problem in Richmond County Schools, " he answered. Dr. Roberson says he's currently looking into who's behind the Craiglist rant. He also says he cannot speak on the lawsuits because they are still being investigated. We will continue to follow this story and bring you the latest information as it becomes available. http://www.wjbf.com/story/22471964/parents-petition-to-have-copeland-elementary-schools-prinicpal-replaced _____________________________________________________________________________________ Parents petition for removal of Copeland Elementary principal By: Karen Edwards - Posted: Mon 11:26 AM, Jun 03, 2013 • Parents want local school principal fired News 12 at 11 o'clock / Sunday, June 3, 2013 AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- Parents are outraged at a local elementary school principal for what they're calling disorderly conduct. Now, they're taking a stand after a string of complaints against this principal in the last year. "We're trying to get the Board of Education to acknowledge this problem, " said Rev. Dr. Frank Beckles. Beckles has lived in Augusta for more than 10 years, and when it was time for his son, Christian, to start school at Copeland Elementary, he never thought he'd have problems with the school. "The initial problem started last year with kids being attacked at the bus stop, " he said. Beckles says Christian was one of those kids. He says he was assured that the principal, Kimberly Davis, was taking measures to make sure it didn't happen again, but Beckles says it did. "The same thing happened again, " he explained. "In this situation, my son was not only attacked, they broke his glasses." A father of three with one on the way, Beckles says he feels there's a problem and that it starts with Davis. "It used to be not like this, " he said. "There was a time where you had principals and teachers [and] a majority of them really cared about the students." After dealing with the issue for about a year, Beckles took his children out of school, and now, he's gotten about 50 signatures of other parents who say they're dealing with similar problems. "Complaints have been piling up with the Board of Education and it's like a standstill, " Beckles said. Beckles and his wife were shocked to realize they weren't the only ones with issues with Davis. "A lot of parents, like myself, we've tried to work with the Board of Education, " he explained. Now, Beckles, along with other parents, plans to take a stand by marching the petition to the Board of Education Wednesday afternoon. "We're going to act on faith and let God direct us on what we need to do, but we feel that the first course of action is getting her fired, " he said. Beckles says the march this Wednesday isn't just about getting Davis removed -- their main goal is to get conversations flowing about parents' issues. News 12 reached out to Copeland Elementary and the school board but did not hear back. http://www.wrdw.com/news/schools/headlines/Parents--209882391.html

THE PROOF OF REV. DR.

She lied in her 6/6/13 Story, To make corrupt educators like Superintendent Frank Roberson, Missoura Ashe, Tim Spivey and Kim Davis look good, because Rev. Beckles (Leader of the Augusta Parents Coalition), had uncovered serious scandals by the Augusta B.O.E., and revealing their corruption would make the entire City of Augusta look bad (as is their government leaders are always good at doing); Several lawsuits are already pending against Copeland & the B.O.E., plus the Media has been publicizing Rev. Beckles and validating all of his claims; yet now Roberson, Davis, & The Augusta Chronicle what to discredit him? When all the parents backing Rev. Beckles & The Media have all testified and proven the evidence presented against Davis & B.O.E.! It's clearly Damage Control! The Augusta Chronicle, Frank Roberson & Kim Davis are THE LIARS!

references That prove that Frank Roberson & Kim Davis are Dishonest & are covering up Misconduct, yet They say there's no problem in Augusta's Schools:

TYRONE McCoy:

The articles on Parents confronting Superintendent Roberson & the B.O.E., and Principal Kim Davis response to allegations of her misconduct (which was all proven factual in previous news reports & eye witness statements)- Kim Davis's statements was a complete fabrication and a deliberate "Damage Control" effort, to falsely attack the character of a respected Church Leader, and social activist who was only protecting his son & defending other children who all have been mistreated or abused by disgraceful School Principal Kimberly Davis! At first, the Local Media substantiated all of Rev. Beckles & other concerned Parents' claims of injustice by The Copeland Elementary School Principal, but on 6/5/2013, after these Parents led by Rev. Dr. Beckles marched to the B.O.E., and met with Mr. Roberson and the corrupt administrators, some of the facts, videos, statements & content was altered to make Rev. Beckles & the concern parents an appear dishonest or taking advantage of immoral school officials?!?
WJBF, WFXG, and The Augusta Chronicle- all omitted facts, footage, threats by Roberson, and recorded statements proving that Dr. Beckles & the other parents was telling the truth and presented evidence during their meeting with Roberson & the B.O.E., at NO time did the News accurately report the Historic Civil Rights March or Parents confronting a disreputable Superintendent! And refused to report or print that Rev. Beckles & the parents DID have & presented documented proof, along with a petition of over 300 signatures to back up their claims! Instead, false or misleading reports about another petition (which was never produced) was presented to keep Kim Davis from being removed, and photos of Davis's Supporters, was reported that they were parents, when most of the people were in fact; Copeland Elementary Employees, and their Leader PTA President Woolfolk was a fraud (no one as ever heard about him and he is under investigation for embezzling PTA funds)!
Fact is, The Augusta Chronicle (among others) distorted statements said by Parent Committee Spokesperson & Leader: Dr. Beckles and the group of concerned parents who are witnesses to the injustice, abuse of power, and corruption performed by Principal Kim Davis, Superintendent Frank Roberson, Tim Spivey, Missoura Ash, and members of the B.O.E.!
Augusta Chronicle reporter (calling on her private cellphone), Tracey McMannus twisted statements said by Rev. Beckles about the rally on 6/5/2013, in a recorded conversation he had with McMannus through speakerphone in front of witnesses, who clearly remember Dr. Beckles, refusing to discuss anything about his employment history, and wanted to keep the focus on the issue of kids being bullied in school, and The Richmond County School System, failing to do anything about it! McMannus stated that she "would only print news about the meeting parents had with the B.O.E.", and deliberately lied to Rev. Beckles & The Parents who were listening, and printed a fabrication about what was said in her article on 6/6/2013- in The Augusta Chronicle!
The Augusta Chronicle is notorious for changing words said by people & printing misleading or false statements, that's why they are a disreputable & racist newspaper business! Tracey McMannus deliberately changed the focus from protecting children from being mistreated by Davis, to verbally attacking & lying about a respected Church Leader and the concerned parents who all came to him for help, to represent them, and for doing what is right in protecting kids from a crazy out-of-control Principals like Kimberly W. Davis, Joretta Akpo-Sanni, and corrupt school administrators (Tim Spivey, Frank Roberson, and Missoura Ash) of the Augusta B.O.E.!
And The Augusta Chronicle continues to print more lies: in their 6/8/2013 issue They printed that they were voted as being the best newspaper in America! By an organization that doesn't even exist!

CORRUPTION & LIES CONTINUE IN THE CITY OF AUGUSTA!
AND AN IMMORAL GOSPEL ARTIST, WHOSE BEEN ACCUSED OF CHILD ABUSE & CHEATING GOSPEL FANS, MAKES A PATHETIC ATTEMPT TO REPAIR HIS DAMAGED REPUTATION! AND THE BAD REPUTATION OF RACISM & INJUSTICE IN THE CITY OF AUGUSTA (& THE C.S.R.A.)!

Gospel Concert Set After Fans Scammed By Promoter/City of Augusta
Posted: Aug 14, 2013 5:56 PM EDT Updated: Aug 14, 2013 6:20 PM EDT

By Dee Griffin, WJBF Reporter
Augusta GA -
A local church is helping national gospel artist James Fortune make good on his promise. He was scheduled to perform in Augusta back in June. But on Twitter he said the promoter canceled the show. Turns out, the show was still held but at a different venue without the advertised artists. The promoter is accused of taking off with the ticket money. Concert goers were left disappointed and hurt. Now, a local church has found a way to heal the pain.

In June, a performance that was supposed to make a joyful noise hit a sour note after national gospel artists did not show up for a concert.

The concert performer was accused of pocketing all of the money and leaving without any explanation.

Fans who walked away empty handed are now getting a chance to see the hottest names in gospel music for FREE.

"Coming together in unity, loving one another, reaching out to each other in their pain because all of us at some point will be in pain and we need someone to put their arms around us and we're trying to open those arms so those that are hurting can get some relief, " explains Sam Davis of Beulah Grove Baptist Church. He has offered his sanctuary at Beulah Grove Baptist church to host the free concert.

Minister James Fortune was scheduled to appear at the first concert but was told it was canceled. After hearing cries of a scam, he vowed to appear in Augusta to heal the hurt. Sam Davis and his church are helping him do that. "We're not blaming anybody, not looking at yesterday. We want to forget those things behind us and press forward. But you can't press forward without healing, " says Davis.

Concert Organizer Angela Harden says this is also an opportunity to help heal businesses that may have been hurt due to the economy. Harden says, "even our businesses need a healing. There are businesses that are thinking about closing. There are businesses that have closed. Because we don't know who's among us. We don't know the businesses that support the community and gives back to the community. So, I'm asking the businesses to come and be a part."

Organizers say the concert can't replace what happened in June. But it may put gospel music fans on one accord again. Davis says, "the need for this concert is just to right a wrong to try to set things back in order and move them maybe just a little higher than they were before in terms of connectivity, in terms of unity in the city."

Harden says Beulah Grove is paying all the expenses so the public can see the artist for FREE. Gospel star Bishop Hezekiah Walker will also perform during next Thursday's concert. Vicki Winans was scheduled for the performance in June. Winans tells News Channel Six that she is performing at another event and will NOT be at the concert in Augusta next week. Who can blame her! Scams like these has been happening in Augusta for years (IT'S A LOUSY & RACIST CITY- JUST LIKE AIKEN COUNTY), while City Leaders & Corrupt Officials (people like Frank Roberson, Kimberly Davis & Richard Roundtree) walk away with the money, and whenever true heroes like; Pastor Dr. Frank Beckles uncovers them, they use the Media to slander them, spreading lies to cover up their own scandals! The people in Augusta, deserved to get ripped off, because they should've came out in support of Civil Rights Activists protesting against Injustice in Augusta's schools- and make a change for the better by firing Superintendent Frank Roberson, when they had the chance! Instead most Augusta citizens & parents stayed home, stayed silent, while corrupt school principals & administrators got away (& continue to) get away with mistreating children! - Posted by "Very_concerned" Parent
A local church is helping national the dishonest gospel artist, inspite of mounting evidence against him & his wife for abusing their stepson! ... explains Sam Davis of Beulah Grove Baptist Church. Making money is more important to churches & ministers like the ones at Beulah Grove Baptist Church or Broadway Baptist Church, than making a real positive difference in African-American communities! People need to understand that wealth, fame & power -doesn't define who you really are, or that you are a good person... NEVER JUDGE A BOOK BY IT'S COVER!
That's why Vicki Winans refused be at the concert in Augusta, she saw how people in Augusta don't back up the "real" heroes, and men who should be famous celebrities, deserve more respect than others, men who risk their lives in the pursuit against RACISM & INJUSTICE in The South (America), as unsung modern civil rights heroes- WHO ARE THE REAL CHRISTIAN WARRIORS & MEN OF GOD ...

James Fortune Scandal Singer Sued / Charges of Burning Child:
Did Gospel Artist James Fortune Really Burn His Child? Yet he was still invited to speak at Beulah Grove Baptist Church on 8/22/13. Does anyone in Augusta have no shame!?! Or are only scandelous people given respect, instead of true heroes? www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/06/27/did-james-fortune...

Setting The Record Straight: THE AUGUSTA CHRONICLE 6/6/2013 RETRACTION OF LIES PRINTED BY REPORTER TRACEY McMannus & THE "SHOTTY" JOURNALISM BY WJBF NEWS 6 FLUNKIE: TYRONE McCoy:

The articles on Parents confronting Superintendent Roberson & the B.O.E., and Principal Kim Davis response to allegations of her misconduct (which was all proven factual in previous news reports & eye witness statements)- Kim Davis's public statement was a complete fabrication and a deliberate "Damage Control" effort, to falsely attack the character of a respected Church Leader, and social activist who was only protecting his son & defending other children who all have been mistreated or abused by disgraceful School Principal Kimberly Davis! At first, the Local Media substantiated all of Rev. Beckles & other concerned Parents' claims of injustice by The Copeland Elementary School Principal, but on 6/5/2013, after these Parents led by Rev. Dr. Beckles marched to the B.O.E., and met with Mr. Roberson and the corrupt administrators, some of the facts, videos, statements & content was altered to make Rev. Beckles & the concern parents an appear dishonest or taking advantage of immoral school officials?!?
WJBF, WFXG, and The Augusta Chronicle- all omitted facts, footage, threats by Roberson, and recorded statements proving that Dr. Beckles & the other parents was telling the truth and presented evidence during their meeting with Roberson & the B.O.E., at NO time did the News accurately report the Historic Civil Rights March or Parents confronting a disreputable Superintendent! And refused to report or print that Rev. Beckles & the parents DID have & presented documented proof, along with a petition of over 300 signatures to back up their claims! Instead, false or misleading reports about another petition (which was never produced) was presented to keep Kim Davis from being removed, and photos of Davis's Supporters, was reported that they were parents, when most of the people were in fact; Copeland Elementary Employees, and their Leader PTA President Woolfolk was a fraud (no one as ever heard about him and he is under investigation for embezzling PTA funds)!
Fact is, The Augusta Chronicle (among others) distorted statements said by Parent Committee Spokesperson & Leader: Dr. Beckles and the group of concerned parents who are witnesses to the injustice, abuse of power, and corruption performed by Principal Kim Davis, Superintendent Frank Roberson, Tim Spivey, Missoura Ash, and members of the B.O.E.!
Augusta Chronicle reporter (calling on her private cellphone), Tracey McMannus twisted statements said by Rev. Beckles about the rally on 6/5/2013, in a recorded conversation he had with McMannus through speakerphone in front of witnesses, who clearly remember Dr. Beckles, refusing to discuss anything about his employment history, and wanted to keep the focus on the issue of kids being bullied in school, and The Richmond County School System, failing to do anything about it! McMannus stated that she "would only print news about the meeting parents had with the B.O.E.", and deliberately lied to Rev. Beckles & The Parents who were listening, and printed a fabrication about what was said in her article on 6/6/2013- in The Augusta Chronicle!
The Augusta Chronicle is notorious for changing words said by people & printing misleading or false statements, that's why they are a disreputable & racist newspaper business! Tracey McMannus deliberately changed the focus from protecting children from being mistreated by Davis, to verbally attacking & lying about a respected Church Leader and the concerned parents who all came to him for help, to represent them, and for doing what is right in protecting kids from a crazy out-of-control Principals like Kimberly W. Davis, Joretta Akpo-Sanni, and corrupt school administrators (Tim Spivey, Frank Roberson, and Missoura Ash) of the Augusta B.O.E.!
And The Augusta Chronicle continues to print more lies: in their 6/8/2013 issue They printed that they were voted as being the best newspaper in America! By an organization that doesn't even exist!
Tracey McMannus also lied in her 6/6/2013 issue, stating that she contacted the Human Resource Dept. of New Orleans Police Dept., when they told me, she never called them, to check Dr. Beckles employment history with them. And in New Orleans; Security Officer & Police Officer- ARE CONSIDERED THE SAME JOB! And no matter what law enforcement agency you are with- YOU WORK WITH THE NEW ORLEANS POLICE DEPARTMENT!
Plus she never produced the name of the New Orleans person that she allegedly contacted!
The Augusta Chronicle (as witnessed by several parents) did not state all the facts pertaining to the 6/5/2013 B.O.E. Meeting, and Tracey McMannus and her friend Susan McCord (another lousy & racist reporter), committed to helping the corrupt Principal, PTA President, & B.O.E., cover up their incompetence and conceal the truth! Woolfolk "The phony", and his "so-called" group of parents advocating for Davis, were mostly Teachers and School Personnel- NOT PARENTS OF CHILDREN THAT GO TO COPELAND! The Chronicle & Media erroneously stated that Davis's Supporters also had a Petition of Signatures to keep Davis as Principal, was never presented or produced! (because there was no petition, yet they are calling parents & Rev. Beckles LIARS?)
This whole "Damage Control" agenda was recently cooked up by an incompetent Local Media- who are more afraid of the B.O.E., than reporting their corruption, AND a lousy Augusta School Board! Misconduct by Kim Davis, has forced Frank Roberson to keep the lid on revealing more injustice & corruption by the B.O.E. Administrators, whom are also afraid of the community finding out -how really scandalous THEY ARE, and always have been for years! Consistenly, employing unqualified, uncertified, and incompetent principals & teachers (mostly females who hate good men)!
The Local Media are idiots, instead of accurately reporting the news on 6/5/2013, they with the blessing of the B.O.E., chose to railroad an Honorable man & Church Pastor along with followers and church members, who are all good parents with legitimate concerns, and evidence to prove all of the misconduct allegations against The Richmond County School Board & especially Dishonest School Principal Kimberly Davis! Rumors are the Media and Board Members was bribed by Davis, Copeland Teachers & Roberson to keep their mouths closed! All to conceal corruption, and protect a psychotic school principal who did, and has been mistreating & wrongfully suspending children for years!
In Davis's televised response to her accusers; she & the Copeland staff are so stupid, they couldn't even get Dr. Beckles's name right, they kept calling him Mr. Green, and witnesses heard him, repeatedly tell the school staff & Davis, that his name was "Rev. Dr. Beckles", and he had always signed his name that way! Tyrone McCord, lied when he stated that Dr. Beckles told him the opposite!
If this incompetent principal & lousy B.O.E., cant' even get his name right, How are we to still believe their lies, about being able to effectively run an elementary school with no misconduct?!?
When a Teacher at Copeland (Ms. Wynn) was recently arrested for locking a child in the Closet!
THAT'S WHAT PROMPTED REV. BECKLES & OTHER PARENTS TO START QUESTIONING KIM DAVIS'S LEADERSHIP!
Because She allowed it to happen, and she never fired the Teacher!
I REST MY CASE!
Roberson & Davis are Liars! THERE IS A PROBLEM IN RICHMOND COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS, especially when it's educators keep lying to the community who pay their salaries! The local media didn't even follow the group of parents out of the B.O.E., bldg., because they all were busy conspiring to conceal all the facts or events, and print lies in The Augusta Chronicle, to cover up the injustice toward children, by making Roberson & the B.O.E., look good! The Media deliberately omitted slander & verbal attacks Roberson & B.O.E Staff made against Rev. Beckles and the parents- THAT'S WHY THEY LEFT!
McMannus printed that she (6/6/2013) asked scandalous Fire Chief Chris James, about Rev. Beckles's career as a Firefighter, and James lied, stating that Rev. Beckles hadn't worked there in several years. When in fact he had been employed at Augusta Fire Department for two years, and only stopped working, because his was injured on Duty, and was receiving paychecks then- Worker's Comp. Benefits, until 2011! And it was ruled that it was Chris James's fault for being injured! He was the Training Supervisor for The Fire Department, and he allowed & encouraged firefighters to physically attack, mistreat each other causing injuries, and he would deny medical treatment to new firefighters (as witnessed by many firefighters including Rev. Beckles & Sloan Griffin) and they reported their concerns to The Augusta Chronicle in (2010). Which caused Chris James & Chief Willis to be investigated, and in 2012, Chief Willis was fired for misconduct! Chris James (a character witness? Don't make me laugh!) His Augusta Fire Department as also (like the Augusta Police Dept., & School Board) have been documented & investigated for crimes, corruption, racism and scandalous misconduct behavior FOR YEARS! Want more proof, just check out The Ronnie Few Scandal in the 1990's, and the cases against Sheriff Ronnie Stength- employing & protecting corrupt deputies like Jack Rackliff, and maintaining detention centers that support false arrests and denying minority inmates medical treatment or phone calls! Don't get me started on police corruption in AIKEN COUNTY!

No Wonder good citizens & true heroes like Rev. Beckles are constantly lied on & unfairly targeted!
