September 2008 Events -
Divided By Region
By Dan Pool
Chief Deputy Allen
Wigington and County
Agent Rick Jasperse con
ducted a Monday auction for
a small herd of goats seized
and impounded by the sher
iff’s department earlier that
week. Wigington said records
revealed no previous sheriff
livestock auctions in Pickens
County and he had to go back
to the 1970s to find where
any Georgia sheriff has auc
tioned impounded livestock.
He said they had given the
owner, Bob Hayles, notice
that the goats were impound
ed and then three days later
notice that the animals were
going to be auctioned.
Hayles was also arrested
and charged with letting live
stock roam unattended.
Hayles said in a later inter
view that he had been hospi
talized for much of the past
month and had not been able
to care for the goats.
Wigington said there had
been at least ten complaints
about the goats roaming a
neighborhood off Price Creek
Road this summer.
This marked the third time
that the sheriff deputies had
been involved with this par
ticular herd of goats this sum
mer. In the first two instances
they had tried to fix the situa
tion by helping the owner get
the goats back in their pen.
Hayles said he couldn’t
argue with the fact that the
goats were auctioned as he
couldn’t care for them nor
did he feel he was able to bid
on them as he is still unable
to care for them.
During the auction, pic
tures and brief descriptions
of each goat was presented.
The prices paid ranged from
$5 to more than $40 depend
ing on the goat.
Tom Kuettner with the
Georgia Dairy Goats
Breeding Association who
assisted in handling the
goats, said they were in “ter
rible shape.” He said the ani
mals were underfed, and had
a “heavy worm load.”
Hayles did dispute that the
animals weren’t fed properly.

“If someone didn’t know
about dairy animals they
would say they looked bad,

They were fed better than I
