Dynasty Moulton Style a/k/a Tim Does Half of Lawrence County

We now continue our story of disgraced former Lawrence County Sheriff's Department chief of staff Tim McWhorter, offering a few addenda as we go:

We've received specific information as to the dates of Tim McWhorter's marriage to his first wife Jennifer Louise Peety. TM and Miss Peety were wed in June 1999 and remained legally married until April 26th of this year and are the parents of a son. The official dissolution of his marriage was three months after TM was placed on leave with the sheriff's department. It was also several months after he became engaged to his erstwhile fiancee' Angel Elizabeth Sanders, with whom he set up housekeeping. A source close to the couple has related that the two met in November 2017, and TM immediately moved in. After all, good home cookin' is hard to find, and McWhorter and his wife had reportedly lived apart since 2013.

Miss Sanders, 34, must have had a most unpleasant surprise when in February of this year a woman from Decatur filed domestic violence charges against the now former deputy. Who was this woman and where did she come from?

According to sources close to TM, Annalisa Michelle Richardson Gillespie had conducted an ongoing affair with TM for around nine years, producing three sons. Our questions now are: Why did it take Jennifer McWhorter so long to divorce her husband? And doesn't anyone out there know what birth control is?

The story becomes even more bizarre when in April, Gillespie filed a second set of domestic violence charges against TM, alleging among other things that he crushed a beer can on her head. By this time TM and Sanders had problems of their own. AS is now alleging that she also is the victim of domestic violence and that TM stole $4,000.00 from her. TM is scheduled to face those charges during an August court date.

While back at the bordello, uh, ranch house, Gillespie in early May dropped her two complaints against TM and announced that the two were going to marry. This is the point where our readers should be thinking of the old saw about "walking around sense," not to mention morals.

Now we come to last Thursday when BuzzFeed did a story on a Latino contract killer known as the Black Hand. The hit man had murdered a man in Lawrence County and also placed TM on his list of targets. Why? It seems that during the investigation into the contact killing, TM had questioned the Black Hand's granddaughter and allegedly hit on her...not in the violent way. We don't know about you folks, but Shoalanda herself gave up trying to juggle that many romantic relationships midway through college. It's called growing up. 

If TM thought he had been the subject of media scrutiny on Thursday morning, that was nothing compared to the events of Thursday night when former fiancee' Angel Sanders went to TM's cabinet shop located just outside Moulton. She took a gun along on her visit. Pregnant pause.

We have no real idea why AS took the gun with her, so we'll leave the speculative comments we've received out of this. We do know that once at the cabinet shop she encountered not only McWhorter, but his longtime mistress Gillespie. Accounts here begin to vary, but we do know that Angel shot Annalisa, who was treated and released at a local hospital. 

Authorities still have not pressed charges against AS who has claimed self defense. ALEA is investigating due to TM's former position as a deputy. Wait, don't put that popcorn down...

AL.com, always attune to a salacious story, contacted the victim. During the phone interview, Annalisa Gillespie announced that she and TM were recently married. Were they?

Family members of TW posted their surprise on Facebook. Some Lawrence County readers have suggested to us that there is no record of the marriage. Married or no, Tim McWhorter still faces not only Angel Sanders' charges in Morgan County, but the investigation into missing items at the Lawrence County Sheriff's Department is also ongoing. We've received a great deal of info on other charges that may be brought against TM by the state, but we'll wait for the official ALEA report to address them.

We suggest TM, who always seems to need money, contact an agent. Cable television is more than ready for this story.
