Guitar Man United States	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #2 Jan 21, 2012 HOly crap --somebody making moonshine in Doddridge don't have their food handler's card. hahaha but sad to hear really. Enough cheap brand rot gut whiskey on the liquor store shelfs that ya don't need to buy that doddridge made crap.
Quiet Observer United States	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #3 Jan 21, 2012 I just pulled up the news account on the wdtv link above and read it. That must have been a terrible way to go, as the article said it shut down all his organs from functioning. I've been told that there are quite a few people who operate stills in this county. We "googled" on the internet for information about the illegal moonshine business and we read some pretty awful accounts of how improper distilling techiniques used in these backwoods stills can yield some pretty toxic chemicals.

Former Resident Frederick, MD	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #5 Jan 24, 2012 Does anyone know who the poor fellow was that died because of the tainted shine? Also wondering who sold or made it?
Doddridge Citizen Since: Feb 08 2,226 Greenwood WV	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #6 Jan 24, 2012 I don't know who passed away. I hope the tox report comes in soon so they know what was in the shine that killed him. It could be that the victim was the only one poisoned and that it wasn't the whole batch. They don't know yet exactly what the poison was according to the news. It is suspicious to me that only one person has died. Or maybe the maker only shared a bottle with one person? Kept the rest for himself?
GOP Watchdog Clarksburg, WV	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #7 Jan 24, 2012 That's a thought or maybe the person who passed didn't buy it anywhere ----

sad Vienna, WV	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #10 Jan 25, 2012 This is a very sad time for the victims family. They just want to make sure that no other family has to suffer.
Former Resident Frederick, MD	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #11 Feb 10, 2012 I still haven't heard who this person was. Since he was about my age I thought it could have been a former classmate. Is his identity a secret?
