[@craftyjen55]

Listening to Russ trying to talk about money is grating on my last good nerve. Definitely God bless Belinda doing her best to correct Russ.

[@debbivaughn1313]

It's so much easier to have some hope for the town of Otter Creek with Terese, Zim, Belinda & Gail. Russ the Suss and Don the Con don't add anything! They need to just stay at home in their piles of garbage and let the adults handle business. Thanks for sharing.💕🙏🤗🥰

[@midwestadventures1975]

Omg. Belinda you are awesome. I can see it on your face when Russell says he has ever copy. She got excited that he exposed himself. Way to go Belinda

[@JediJan]

Therese went a bit quiet at that point too, visibly trying to contain a few smirks. I can read Zim’s mind as well lol. There are times when saying nothing is golden! 😂

[@craftyjen55]

I feel bad that Belinda is stuck sitting next to Russ at that the meeting. I just don't think I could stand being around that stupidity he projects every time he speaks.

[@southernsunshine6154]

I am a labor lawyer, Russ subjected both himself and the town to a charge of sexual harassment by calling a town employee “Honey.” He did this in public and during official town business. In my opinion his purpose was to attempt to humiliate and belittle her because she was challenging him. Belinda should file a complaint. That should be grounds for his removal. A suit like that could effectively bankrupt the town.

[@jayneharrison5672]

I agree 💯

[@litheanne1563]

IKR. I thought the same thing.

[@marieevelyndunlap]

The balance of council should get rid of him by any means possible.

[@wandahargrove6109]

It can also be listed as a "Hostile" work environment.

[@nstaton4109]

Unfortunately, I heard Belinda refer to Don as "Hun" earlier. Is that the same?

[@nancyrobertson2764]

$100 for Bereavement? Have you seen the price of flowers? They're not going to get much. I guess the town needs to plant a flower garden. Don is ridiculous quibbling over $100 for flowers and voting against fixing the water system. I think the last time he cleaned his ears, his brain rolled out of his head.

[@lindaphillips1481]

I'm a wedding/event florist, unfortunately $100 won't get very much. I would suggest sending a plant, it lasts longer! Orchids are especially pretty for sympathy gifts. WAIT! Back the firetruck up!! 🚒. Don thinks that bereavement flowers should be to put in the town's line budget! 💐 You old fart, buy them yourself! The town doesn't have clean flipping water!! 🤢🤮

[@KDVoller]

I thought the exact same thing

[@ginnymiller9093]

😂😂😂

[@HostileTakeover2]

Dang I like Belinda! She knows her stuff, can explain it in an understandable way (if they're willing to listen), is respectful while being matter-of-fact, and is skilled at getting to the heart of the situation.

[@jcl2513]

It’s unbelievable. Don has absolutely no idea what’s going on. He just likes to sound as if he knows anything, by making useless inputs into the meeting

[@marieevelyndunlap]

No to clean water but make sure there's money in the bereavement fund. As you said, it's unbelievable.

[@kamakoa]

Former Mayor and former clerk fired and prison period and former lawyer needs to be investigated

[@brett828]

Once corrupt always corrupt keep up the good work Jeremy as well as madam mayor love you guys

[@GinaDob70]

I can’t believe Don and Russ even shows their face in the town hall meetings.

[@brickcity9mm896]

Who's going to pay the bills if they don't?

[@avacadman2155]

This highlights just how bad these two men are, ignorant of how it all works! They should not be on the council! No wonder the town has suffered under the last council! OMG! And Ron talking about 100 dollars for funeral flowers? Then Russel opens his mouth…good Lord! Proof he knows nothing about how it all works. This is why the town is failing!

[@andrewmanley7896]

Keep pressing for the truth Jeremy, hold them to the fire. Oh, when you do get those record request, I hope you share them with Madam Mayor. Keep us in formed. This a wild ride Otter Creek residents are witnessing. As well as affecting greatly. Little do they know, until they have to pay the bills...

[@harveyjohnson2587]

Russ seems to think he is still in charge. He don't want to raise taxes etc. Not his choice. Why would he want the copies, he's no longer in charge.

[@thesedentarylife]

Amazing news, A&E, these events are so interesting, it’s like discovering a lost tribe untouched by time. If someone wrote this script, it be dismissed as ridiculous.

[@darrenbutler1938]

I can't wait till the shit hits the fan completely and Russ and Mary get charged and put in prison

[@HostileTakeover2]

A couple of recommendations: 1) an inexpensive camera system in the office so that any official business is recorded, even if, and especially if, it's not done in writing. Would also be good from a liability standpoint. Though you could always just set it up to not record audio, only video, if there's any legal issues there. FL is a 2 party consent state so you'd have to post notice at each of the entrances. Of course you'd also have to have it voted on. 2) if not already, have all physical records pick-ups signed for prior to handing them over. For instance the meeting packet.

[@HonestTakeOnStupid]

For the camera you need to consider storage.

[@salt6]

In the town office, the public has no expectation of privacy.

[@helengall4580]

Oh Gosh is he that thick that he doesnt get what She is saying even I can and i Not that good at figures

[@vickij5132]

Yeah, Russ just admitted publicly that he has copies of all the records Jeremy has been asking for. What a dunce.

[@kenszemethy]

Someone put a Dunce cone hat and put Russel in the corner. Should the previous mayor be talking trash about what's right when he couldn't do it himself?

[@BobJones-jx2ff]

OMG !!! First he says those words that showed his stuipidy by saying “Sue us” and he doubles down by saying “I have e-mail” after telling everybody “I don’t do e-mail” and then triples down and says those immortal words “it’s in my files at my house”. Wonder if there is going to be a bonfire at his house before the search warrants are served ???

[@toddjsportsfan]

Watching this and have Belinda trying to explain things to Russ the suss is like she’s talking to a 2 year old kid, which would be smarter than him

[@angelaberumen5726]

I have a question is it illegal for the mayor to have files at his house and if they don't fix the water can the residence of Otter Creek sue the town for not fixing the water

[@tinafox7614]

Look how red russ’ face is when she’s talking about what was actually spent and what it was spent on during his term!!! He might b a little worried!!!

[@patriciabernard8386]

These shenanigans go on in so many community governments. I hope we are evolving our governments to a more transparent way of dealing with issues. It goes on at all levels of government but when it is the local council it bothers me the most because it effects me so directly.

[@leighanncronin6905]

I PRAY that the search warrant has been done, before this video aired...if not, the "files" could possibly disappear. (I though they would never would be found). If RTS sees this, he may make em go poof! He may not be dumb, but at least he's stupid!😉

[@rosewood6711]

I’m sure the Lynette, John or their new sidekick will be watching this video and will inform this info and a whole lot more.

[@diannacampbell3706]

😂TRUTH

[@brickcity9mm896]

Really he had plenty of time to burn them a long time ago.

[@sodorflubbs5000]

Yeah but he’s abutted they are at his home so wouldn’t he be stupid to de so?

[@marshagiorgianni7331]

HE LOOKS SO LOST

[@nickniggeling265]

There was a third member that voted no as well... that lady that sits next to Don. She needs to change that vote

[@WilliamBircher]

Why don't you ever bring Gales name up about not doing what she should for the town she could have second the motion for the water to be fixed and wouldn't

[@rosetucker9049]

Russ the Suss is such a smart@ss. Can't stand him!

[@lianneashby9550]

Casual labor costs was money that the council voted to pay Belinda and Therese when they had worked for nothing cleaning out the mess Mary had made of her office and all the ignored paperwork in there plus phone calls they had to deal with. Russ was not showing up to meetings at that time so he has no idea what casual labor cost fund was set up to cover.

[@JediJan]

Exactly. Casual labour cost = Russ the Suss and Mary Mary mess to sort out … still ongoing. I had to stop myself from choking on my coffee with the comments Russ was making. Ooooops! 😂 Don should be happy there is more disclosure about “the bills.” He does not seem to appreciate the gravity of the situation Russ and Mary have created, that he went blindly along with. He needs to listen up a bit more.

[@robertwolfe8680]

Don and others don’t want to raise the taxes, but the taxes will go up no matter what. Even if the town dissolves, that means that the county will have to provide the services. Every town has to pay county taxes, if the county takes over the town county taxes will increase to help offset the addition of the town.

[@barbaraheinrich9544]

This town and the way the former mayor ran Otter Creek is right out of Twilight Zone!!

[@dominus22]

When Belinda is talking to Russ explaining all the money and water....who could imagine if that would have still been Mary and what she would have said?

[@marieevelyndunlap]

Mary Mary Math is Scary: "We need money ... how much are we gonna get?" Also Mary Mary Math is Scary: Doesn't fill out the application forms for the grant.

[@johnapernorio8151]

Gail is the key vote to all the motions. She seems like she leans for Russ & Don, like the water vote.

[@nstaton4109]

I did not understand her silence during this workshop. Wonder what she is thinking and not sure she will second the nomination for better water. We know Don or Russ will not second. Makes no sense not to take steps forward to improve the water.

[@matthewridgeway9250]

Russell is stunningly beautiful as a bright red noisy vessel. The glacial flow of those neurons are completely mind numbing. Maybe he drives around town because he forgets to stop at the intended destination.

[@AngelCares]

WOW!! I feel for what you are going thru, but I do love watching "The Days of Odder Creek"!! Packed with drama, suspense, peril, intrigue, lies, deception, etc....)!! LOL!!!

[@AmmosGirl]

Belinda has alot more patience than I do! She kept calm and cool, trying to explain everything to Russ. Otter Creek needed her many years ago!

[@jonpeterson5053]

Can’t believe or understand why Russ can still be in the meetings. Anyway love your work Hales! Can’t wait for tomorrow!!

[@melissafraser9133]

Just about spat out my coffee when Don told Belinda there was a format for financial reports. Belinda obviously knows far more than Don and Russ. She makes them look like fools.

[@debbiecartmell804]

I'm glad to see Don and Russ at the workshop, it's about time now let's wait and see if they will let the residents have water

[@rebeccaleeper4570]

Don kept everything civil this meeting. He actually seems to understand what is being said and is happy with Belinda!

[@JEM20226]

Belinda is a great addition, along with Therese and Zim. Russ is oblivious, and this man was supposed to be leading the town.

[@lisastephen3277]

For board members that want paper copies, they should charge them by the page. Might encourage use of email.

[@juliaorgantini143]

My hats off to Belinda for being so calm and polite! When someone outside my family calls me "Honey", I immediately tell them that I have a name and it isn't Honey! Also great self control Theresa, Zim, and Belinda with the rudeness of Russ and Don with their constant interruptions when you were answering their questions.

[@tommeboy3334]

if I am not mistaken but taking any of these records home is illegal.

[@HonestTakeOnStupid]

What law is violated?

[@brickcity9mm896]

What records? The ones in Russ firepit?

[@Cheri.G]

Cannot believe R call Belinda "honey". Gross!

[@JediJan]

Inappropriate … big time!

[@tinabenavidez1903]

Jeremy wouldn't your lawsuit end if Russell would turn over all the papers, it seems like he's putting the town out money for what he refuses to turnover, if that's the case why doesn't everybody confront him. If I'm wrong could you please explain it.

[@micheleeastlake2994]

Notice that Russ wears the same clothes every meeting.

[@jayneharrison5672]

They must be his "go to meeting" clothes

[@LoriNetsell]

I look forward to all of What the Hales videos! Even the Elvis coin pusher ones! ❤ Gotta love Elvis! 😉

[@EuniceEmbry]

Hi, Jeremy this is Eunice from Atlanta I have been watching you for a while, when you first came to otter Creek I did not believe you when you said that Russ the sus the was ignorant but now I see he is ignorant, stupid and incompetent and I agree with you one hundred percent his trying to weasel his way back in to put the town and deeper debit I wish I was there so I can give him a piece of my mind he need shut its stupid mouth someone needs to tell him we would not be in this predicament if you took your advice that you're trying to giving now and applied it to your ministration we would not be in this predicament

[@GeorgeHaslam-n9h]

You guys are killing me!😂 I’m watching my favorite soap opera! As OTTO CREEK FLOWS! I’m hooked!

[@maryellen8564]

I swear Russ the Suss’ IQ is that of the gum stuck to the bottom of my shoe!!! Hey Russ, what’s 1+1? 🙄🙄🙄

[@marieevelyndunlap]

That's an insult to gum. 🤣🤣🤣

[@KathyJF]

I don’t know if I can make it through another video tomorrow. I’m not even through this one and I want to drive down to Florida and sleep the snot out of The Suss. 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@leonardsmith2198]

Let’s get fiscal, fiscal, I wanna get fiscal with you…😂

[@JayKFilmz]

Jeremy Howard’s . Can we get a caption check 😂

[@blkmtn52]

Keep us hanging! You definitely know how to keep people watching. I have time to wait until tomorrow. M happily retired no, so I can wait.

[@jorandle3455]

It’s like trying to teach a two year old how to do algebra! How the hell did Russ the suss get in as mayor in the first place? Xxjojoxx

[@carlycarpenter3952]

Does Russ have a bunch of those shirts or does he wear the same one every meeting?! Lol!

[@sassypuppy2937]

I'm sure that's his "GOOD" shirt .... lol teehee lol

[@christelgeldenhuys2208]

Belinda has the patience of a saint. At one time it was as if a flickering of a lightbulb was over Russell's head just before it 'exploded' when he opened his mouth and said 'I have every file at home'. He actually contradicts himself when he was mayor he never showed any accounts but wanted it approved yet now he gets a financial statement but demands to see every bill. Then he even tried to adjourn that meeting. What is he on?

[@janelord3061]

Whenever I've been on committees, boards, or councils, each member is given a copy of the agenda, minutes, financials, and any other pertinent papers, at the start of the meeting. I would take notes on my agenda. They all went home with me so that I could refer back to them, as needed. The master copies of these items remained in the archives. Some members would throw them away each month. That's what I understood Russ to be referring to. But you may find other things at his house.

[@V3n0m0usVix3n]

How I'm understanding things is, since there is stuff missing from town hall, his copys are the only ones in existence right now.

[@kellyatkinson2985]

I just want to say although I’m not a resident of Otter Creek I would like to thank Belinda. She is doing a fantastic job and I certainly couldn’t put up with Russ “the suss” and Don “the con” I’d of lost my cool big time. I wanted to jump through the screen and slap Russ afew times. Hope you’re well Jeremy and George ❤❤❤

[@elizsquibb5780]

It’s like Belinda is having to talk to a toddler once explaining something to Russell

[@chriscaulfield9392]

Jeremy just wondering if you know what the average household pays yearly in taxes to the town ?

[@madelineivins9786]

My mother used to say don't ever say anything behind somebody's back that you're not willing to say to their face. Well Madam mayor is doing a great job of that right now at this council meeting. In his mind I think he's laying on the beach in Maui and yes everything's burning down around him. P.S... God Bless the people of Maui my heart goes out to them.

[@tanianigelwade8935]

Dont blame you for wanting to jump through the camera. Your not alone Jeremy. Talk about an education for Russ. XOXOXOXO ❤❤❤❤😊😊😂😂😂

[@Fatherhailes]

Where’s the otter creek playlist cuz I need to watch this in chronological order , you need to make this a reality show Forreal , this is crazy

[@paulchristopher8634]

Oh lord…..does Russ the Suss have an issue with how a town budgets it’s money

[@llndadischer7689]

I see Russ and Mary. Playing the blame game and throwing each other under the bus when the poop hits the fan. Lol

[@pamelamontuori4717]

Oh my, oh my! The heat is about to turn up! Thanks for sharing!❤

[@hnsgallagvan7304]

I just want to say these meetings are riveting. lol I am surprised Don the Con can walk without arguing with himself. Wow, Russ the Suss I wanted to smack so bad. He is a piece of work. Can't wait for tomorrow. lol

[@subn4life]

I found this channel looking up neighbor disputes lmfao

[@wandacason1792]

You are in for a treat!

[@teresasmith6076]

Wow! Russ sure gets righteous for accountability from honest people when he's so crooked. Amazing.

[@lethaw470]

Gail was very quite today she knows she's on peoples shit list

[@person2463]

Wow Belinda. How to smack someone in the head without smacking them in the head... Hey russ, don .... the world is watching. And seriously musty rusty .... i have copies of all town hall bills and docs at home???? Can anyone say illegal/unlawful

[@alexisshoemaker66]

I swear, while Miss Belinda was explaining things to “Russ the Suss” , he looked like a deer in the headlights. No clue as to what was going on! So funny to watch!

[@pamveselka4600]

Why didn't Gail want clean water.

[@jayasbill7137]

I feel the life being sucked out of my body just listening to russ & don

[@tmaker502]

When I was early in my career my first mentor said if you are the smartest person in the room you are in the wrong room. Russ is the person who if they heard that advice would say I don't need to be in another room I am fine here. Now that the people in the room has changed. Russ wants to keep the status quo.

[@barbaraheinrich9544]

These crooks and the way the former mayor ran this town is right out the

[@thomasjefferson3716]

I wonder why the residents have not asked for a "vote of confidence" for both Don and Russ. If they are not doing anything for the best interest of the town. then the residents should be able to get them replaced with a vote of "no confidence".

[@lisabell418]

The confusion on Russ's face when Belinda is explaining to him about the funds that are available for fixing the water problem says it all! He can't tell his butt from a hole in the ground!

[@ResidentEngineer1]

Town council could give Russ the Suss a year to review the potential budget and I believe he still wouldn’t be able to understand the reasoning for the budget increases. Then he demands copies of the bills. He will never get it, he’s tremendously incompetent and should not continue on the board. Russ the Suss and Don the Con has to go and until they go the town will continue be in utter chaos.

[@JayKFilmz]

Mayor got a new cut 😊

[@alishiahardman8412]

Hello Jeremy & George can't wait for the next one be safe God bless!

[@haroldsouth1955]

Russ looks like his head is about to explode.

[@SlowmovingGiant]

Things to learn from this vid: Don focused on $100 for Flowers for a possible Death right in the middle of discussing the Tens of Thousands of Dollars around the water situation. Russ wants to waste Town Hall time, paper and ink to get hard copies because he don't do emails. (Charge Him a quarter a page). Serious question, i wish during Public Comments that someone would ask the Council how many days or even hours each of them has put in to 1: Cleaning out the hoarded junk/old equipment/stale food from The Buildings (i don't mean when Russ got Richard to help him take "Mary's Personal Belongings" 2 Sorting out the mess in the office - the stacks of paper, folders, Stationery supplies etc. I'm fairly confident that Don and Russ put in 0 hours.

[@tambracarswell9896]

It’s obvious that Belinda has had to educate fools before. They try to tell her how it should be and she says “That’s right!” Cause she’s already doing it that way. She also let them know how it will be regarding records/bills reviews and copied. She is a true professional! Otter Creek should be grateful she is in the office!

[@carolynlively5335]

Does he not know everything belongs to the town! Its NOt His to take out of the town office! You're right every tine he opens his mouth he incriminates himself!!😮

[@TheGingerGem]

Funny how Russ is so interested and demanding an accounting of each bill and each account and the breakdown when he refused to prived those things when he was sitting innthe mayors chair. I love how everytime he tries to assert dominance in a meeting he is ignored lmao, i just love seeing him put in his place.

[@karendavis9372]

I wanted to jump through the screen and slap the stupid right off Russthesuss!!lol😂

[@suzanneb3036]

Somebody needs to feed those squirrels running Russ’s brain.

[@mrslib]

Russ doesn’t understand any of this. Probably never did.

[@ladyflea1955]

Russ calling Ms. Belinda “Honey” twice in this meeting! I certainly hope that is addressed .

[@russellthompson3486]

😳😳🙄🙄 more anticipation! It’s worse that the Heinz, ketchup commercial waiting🤙🤙🫵🏼🫵🏼🔥🔥🔥‼️‼️

[@williammccaslin8527]

Jeez, can't believe the amount of placating that Don the Con is doing now that the light is starting to shine thru, or Russ the Suss for that matter. I truly think they know that their trying to make themselves look a little better in these vids for court, cause they know there fixing to get hammered in it. Thx for the vid Jeremy

[@southernman9765]

Otter Creek should let the county take over. You'll have all the services you need.

[@judithbartnik593]

Just wondering why Gail didn't vote FOR the new water system...I felt like grabbing her and shaking her when she just sat there. I thought she was on the town's side???

[@RoBJ71]

When Russ says to Belinda 'honey', that's actually sexual harassment. He could be booted or suspended for that as well as a sensitivity counseling course. We just have something similar happen where I work, except the guy called the woman sweetheart.
