First off Maxine Jones, you need to read the comment. I never said I was "with" Bobby. I said I babysat his son, and Yes his wife at the time DID know me. What I said was I watched his son and never once did Bobby try anything with me nor did I ever see him try anything with his son, or my younger sister. I am related to his sister so yes, his wife at the time did know me, since I was watching their child so they could both work. The main thing people are forgetting is he has only been accused NOT convicted.

I only wish to ask a question.I was reading on this site about a man being from this same state ,charged with messing with a child sexually and his bond is 150 thousand dollars and bobby elks is only 75 thousand and he is out of jail and he abused more than one child.What kind of strings is he pulling?Why the BIG differance?Are some more important than others?No kidding I would like to know why!

I hope you will air my comment as you have aired the rest b/c some truth needs applying here.As to the person who boasted they were with Bobby when this happened and babysat his son,I wonder does his wife of the same time know you?Also has anyone considered if he is really getting his life in order that he may actually admit it like a real man?Also he would need to do the right thing for his little girl.Maybe he really is changing.I warn you all though the real circumstances have not been aired here and never will be.All of you should be praying that God's will be done here and that will be right for all involved.The girls here may not be perfect but what child deserves this?And by the way,everything is not about money nor revenge,justice alway catches up in the end.
