He is also the preferred real estate attorney used by both the Fire Chief Douglass Matthews, and Alex Brian Abernathy. {{< /persona >}} Bill Linsey was the Attorney for the County of Lamar during our attempt to save our farm from a solar power plant. During that time, Linsey represented both the county and [Brian Alex Abernathy](/persons/babernathy.md) at the same time, which mostly to anyone would agree is presents a conflict of interest. We know this, because we received a letter in the mail stating as much. So, Chief Douglas Matthews, satisfied all the requirements according to state law to be considered illegally acting as an unaffiliated and unlicensed Real Estate Broker. Linsey was the attorney who processed the sale of the properties involved, allowing the real estate sale to take place. It was this act, and those present shared the largest portion of the blame for destroying our home. Regardless, he is a hard worker, an intelligent individual, and a nice guy.
