I know some of the people involved. The ones who have put up these signs are nuts in my opinion. The wife is crazier than her husband and she instigates most of the attacks. But he goes along with her. When I say attacks....the first incident that I know of happened about 15 years ago. The crazy people put huge football sized rocks in the dirt road that borders their property so that the other people could not get onto the main road without getting the rocks out of the way. It all started when the crazy people wanted to buy some land that had been in the other people'sfamily for years. It was offered first to family(all of whom live on the before mentioned dirtroad.) When the Jaynes bought it from ..I belive, an uncle, the people on the corner went balistic. They put up no trespassing signs ontheir property and then accused Mr. Jaynes of trespassing. Took him to court and won because it was both of their word against his. They took his father to court that same day saying that he had run them off the road. The father's case was first and it was thrown out because his car had been in the shop the whole week that he supposedly ran them off the road. I have no idea why the judge ..whose initials are DBP didn't see right through them since she tried both cases. In any case Mr. Jaynes has a criminal record because of this and should have appealed but probably just wanted to put the whole thing behind him.
Since then they have continually harassed these people and thir kids. They have taken 2 of the kids to court that I know of.
They pull out their car into the dirtroad when they see them coming and just sit there blocking the way. They spray their car with a water hose. they walk out in front of them and just stand their screaming obscenities and shooting birds at them. The Jaynes are very nice Christian people who do nothing in return. Turn the other cheek types. When the father was dying of cancer the crazy people made a miniature coffin and put it out in front of the signs ..the sign said they he was going to h... one body part at a time. (he had had an organ removed ). The signs mostly say that the hypocrites are going to h... but sometimes say that their son is gay or their daughter is a w or b. But one sign is always there. That Mr. Jaynes has been convicted of trespassing. It is pathetic that they can get away with all this nonsense because the law gives them freedom of speech.

What is the county road number where the signs are located? And if you were to stop in the front of their house the county has a certain footage of right of way that they wouldn't be able to harrass someone if they stopped there, maybe having car trouble. I would think if they did harrass or threaten someone they could file a complaint with the county sherriff. Sounds like a project for several folks to do, take up the fight for the neighbors that are good christian people.

This is the incident at Wal-Mart, as I recall. The Jaynes or store employees called the police or some such. The family who was predicting warm temps for the deceased claimed free speech and hired an attorney specializing in personal rights who got them off (I think). I'm sure he was ashamed to have them for clients, but they were entitled to a defense.

I seem to remember a case in Franklin county back in the 80's where two neighbors were feuding for several years, one harassing the other constantly, threatining them even chasing his wife one day with a garden implement (hoe, shovel,something) until one day when the husband finally had enough and shot and killed the bad neighbor. He was charged with man slaughter, murder or something like that, went to court brought all these character witnesses in to testify just how bad this man was and guess what.....not guilty, justifiable homocide. He basically proved the man needed killing. I just saw the Clint Eastwood movie Gran Torino and Clint has a line in it I really loved..."sometimes you run across someone you just really shouldn't f--- with"

You're sure a defense attorney was ashamed of his clients?

Since this story involves signs and a right-of-way, I have an idea who we could get on the case...

Well, henhouse, I may not have chosen the best wording. I believe this was a case of being court appointed and not being able to refuse (judges don't like that). If I recall correctly as to who this atty was, he is extremely ethical, not an ambulance chaser, etc., and a kind, caring individual.
My personal opinion of the family tormenting the Jayneses is not very nice, but I do know that in the US they are entitled to a defense, just as we all are. I sympathize with the Jayneses--I wasn't aware that this was something of an old home place as my family used to say. This might sound trite, but when I remember (and the little grey cells are getting fewer and fewer), I'm going to pray for them.
From reading this, I'm not totally sure of all the ins and outs with property lines, but there must be someway to segregate the other family so that they are out of sight. If it takes money, perhaps the Stutts Road church could help with a private collection. I know that I would be happy to give a small amount.
