That's just gross, a 64 year old man, do that stuff to two 7-8 year old little girls. He deserves life in prison!

EMORY, Texas -- Multiple sources are reporting that Deputy Jerred Dooley has been fired by the Rains County Sheriff's Office. No official statement has been released by the sheriff. Cole Middleton, Candy's owner, said that he has not been notified of the firing, but the move was the beginning of getting justice for Candy.

Glad he lost his job! Poor Candy!
