One of the best thing people will say about John Mattingly is "he's no quitter". He stands up to bullies, and fights them off.
John Mattingly is the right man! At the right time for Saint Mary's County!
Crime Down 36% ?
Someone needs to tell the people of Lexington Park, especially along the Great Mills Rd Corridor that Crime is down.
That area of the County is so crime ridden that WAWA closed their store there because of the numerous Robberies, Drug Deals, and Assaults that occurred on their property. They closed the store because they feared for the safety of their employees.
WAWA is a huge chain operation that has been in business for 46 years. WAWA has closed smaller stores in inner city locations, closed old stores, and replaced them with newer larger stores.
Lexington Park, MD has the distinction of being the only location in the WAWA chain of more than 500 full size stores with gas stations that has been forced to close because of a crime problem.

We need a State's Attorney who will make sure that repeat offenders are punished, and not pampered just to get them through the system.

Maryland state's attorney candidate's partner sentenced
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BALTIMORE, MD -- Daniel J. Brown received a far harsher sentence than expected last week on charges stemming from his relationship with John A. Mattingly Jr., a candidate for St. Mary’s County state’s attorney.
Daniel Brown, who was hoping for a six-month sentence with work-release privileges, instead drew a 10-year prison term with all but two years suspended for the misdemeanor of conspiring to unlawfully affix a public seal to a deed. He will serve an additional six months in jail for conspiring to influence a witness to a 2007 shooting incident involving one of Mattingly’s clients.
In imposing the sentence in St. Mary’s County Circuit Court, Judge Sean Wallace ignored the recommendation of the prosecutors, who sought the six-month term pursuant to a plea deal in the notary case. Wallace accused Brown and Mattingly of corrupt business practices.
Isabel M. Cumming, the Prince George’s County state’s attorney brought in to handle the cases because Mattingly is running against the incumbent state’s attorney in St. Mary’s, said the judge was “fair.”
“We were bound to our plea agreement with what we offered,” she said. “The judge did give a stronger sentence. It does happen. Judge Wallace is a good judge.”
John Mattingly and Daniel Brown were both charged in the land-transfer case, and with a conspiracy to influence witnesses in the second case.
“I frankly don't think you were the instigator in any of these things, but you played a major role,” the visiting Prince George’s County judge said to Brown, according to The Enterprise, a Southern Maryland newspaper. “The two of you together did operate your business corruptly in an effort to cheat other people.”
Sisters keep property
Daniel Brown’s false-seal conviction resulted from a land deal with three Baltimore sisters, in which he was convicted of asking his sister-in-law to notarize a deed she had not witnessed. The sisters will keep their interest in the property, Cumming has said.
The witness-tampering charge stemmed from an incident involving one of Mattingly’s former clients, Terry Clarke, who had been charged with first-degree assault and illegal gun possession after shooting at people near his property line. Mattingly was accused of telling Clarke and Brown to pay off the victim witnesses.
Brown entered an Alford plea to that count, acknowledging that prosecutors had sufficient evidence to convict him. However, he told the court that the only person he ever spoke to about the case was Clarke.
In addition, Brown will serve a concurrent 30-day sentence from a guilty plea for doing home improvement work without a license. Brown will repay $30,000 to the deceased homeowner’s heirs.
After serving his time, he will undergo five years of supervised probation.
