Jim Brownback sounds like a complete nightmare. According to the article, his niche as a farmer is buying diseased or otherwise infirm animals, insuring the ones that don't survive and reselling the few that recover for meat. There's a story from a neighbor of his leaving a sick bull dying for days, doing nothing to either comfort it, or put it out of its misery, saying something like, "insurance will cover it."
He outright stole two cows from another neighbor.
Jim Brownback told an area acquaintance he was under orders not to threaten or intimidate his neighbors, at least until his brother Sam's re-election campaign had ended. Low and behold, on midnight of Election Day, Jim started firing guns at his neighbor's home, every five minutes, like clockwork.
He also admitted to filling jars with an explosive called Tannerite, and using them for target practice - creating massive explosions on his property.
He once scattered nails on his neighbor's driveway, another time blocked it with heavy farm equipment, and yet another time left a dead deer there.
Jim Brownback also likely killed his neighbor's dog, who was found dead in a ditch fifteen miles from the home.
Perhaps, thanks to this stunning expose, Sam will no longer be able to protect his monster brother. We can only hope.
