...great fucker." Reems is justly proud of his quick preparation for the money scenes: "I can get turned on by a picture of Minnie Mouse." (Fine, Harry, just don't say Pluto!). Even Federal agent Bill Kelly, who would lead the battle to put Harry in jail, offered the grudging praise that "He was the only redeeming thing in the entire movie, as opposed to Linda Lovelace, who's got as much acting ability as a lamp." Reems certainly earned his salary on the film: $250. Linda...
...tribal chairman Floyd Jourdain Jr. announced that reporters must stay inside a fenced parking lot next to the reservation detention center. Reporters caught roaming the reservation suffered tough penalties. Many were escorted off tribal land and instructed never to return. Two photographers were arrested and spent the night in jail. Two others were pulled over at gunpoint by tribal police. Police confiscated their cameras.

Last year the county spent $132,000 to send its overflow of inmates to other jails. Nearly 1,100 people are on probation for felony convictions in Tazewell.

Now the county's crime woes have made it a case study in how prescription-pill abuse has stressed a judicial system to the breaking point, overwhelming cops, sheriffs, prosecutors and judges...
...across all of Virginia's coalfields. According to state crime data gathered by the FBI, from 1998 to 2003 the number of robberies, burglaries and larcenies jumped 131% in neighboring Buchanan County, 44% in Wise County, 62% in Lee County and 102% in Russell County. In Buchanan, where the jail typically holds more than twice the 34 inmates it was built to accommodate, the sheriff's department was so bogged down with drug-related crime that it dropped out of a four-county drug task force in order to concentrate on its own problems. In Lee, which has the same...
