Virginia County Supervisor Indicted on 82 Counts in Election Fraud Scheme

Knox District Supervisor Trey Adkins (D) was indicted on May 9th along with his alleged accomplice Sherry Lynn Bailey, over alleged election and voter fraud. The announcement was made by Russell County Commonwealth's Attorney Zach Stoots who said the pair were hit with 94 various felonies.

Adkins was charged with 34 counts of false statement election fraud, 11 counts of absentee voting procedure violations, 8 counts of public embezzlement, 11 counts of forgery of a public record, 15 counts of uttering public record, 3 counts of conspiracy to make a false statement election fraud, and a partridge in a pear tree.

Sherry Lynn Bailey is apparently Adkins’ aunt, and she was charged in connection with the same voter-election scheme. Her indictment was 4 counts of false statement election fraud, 4 counts of conspiracy to make a false statement, 4 counts of forgery of public record, and a 5 golden rings.

Stoots stated, “The Rules of Professional Conduct prevents any lawyer participating in the prosecution of a criminal matter that may be tried to a jury from making an extrajudicial statement that the lawyer knows or should know will have a likelihood of interfering with the fairness of a trial by jury. Based on the Rules of Professional Conduct, my office will not be making any further statements on the pending matters.”

Virginia State Police have apparently been investigating Adkins for approximately two years prior to the current charges getting handed down. 

The National File reported that the grand jury’s report detailed “an illegal absentee vote harvesting scheme” that Adkins had been partaking in since first coming into office in 2011 and “repeating the process in his 2015 and 2019 bids for re-election.”

The scheme had Adkins allegedly showing up at the homes of prospective voters with absentee applications and ballots in tow to help ensure that he secured their vote.

Perhaps liberals will now realize the GOP concerns for voter fraud were legitimate. 

Who am I kidding?
