(here's the article I found: http://articles.orlandosentinel.com/...sed-in-leather)
Wow, it is awesome to see the interest people still have in leather work created and mastered by such a wonderfully strong, honorable, personable, confident, (list is endless) man! We were blessed to call him family!
To answer the original post we do have a page on FB and are in process of designing a website( but we too are country folks, so it’s challenging to say least). Any one that is interested in any leather please feel free to contact us at 4232133910 and we will be glad to take care of you and of course as always “if it ain’t dirty...don’t wear it”
Woo n Tee Hampton

Dirty Bill was a piece of trash. He sold everything including drugs. I heard he sold women but I cant say that's a fact. You really think he GRIEVED over his wife?? He slept with every woman that would have the filthy pig. In my opinion and this is only MY opinion, He probably started the fire for insurance on the house and a life insurance policy on his wife. If anyone defends him then they ate no different from him at all. The Leather Shop was only a FRONT for embezzlement and dope. Everyone in that part of Carter County knew that.

ANYONE that takes up for this scumbag isn't no better than him and knew his business was a front for selling his dope and embezzlement but the sad thing is that There was a lot of people that bought from this piece of trash not knowing at all that it was a front for dope and embezzlement. The sheriff George Papantonio turned his ears off and blinded his eyes when it concerned DIRTY BILL. I can remember his house and all the fancy cars. He probably ordered his Leather from Mexico which is cheap and high quality. You can get a anything leather there dirt cheap. For instance, a Bikers Saddle Bags for 20 bucks plus coats the same. They make anything you want in leather in Mexico. I wouldn't doubt it a but. If those of you that really knew him KNOWS what he was doing. PATHETIC!!! I bet he regrets the crap.he dud to people now. I would bet money if someone asked me about his house burning down, my answer would be it was purposely set for Home insurance and then Life insurance on his pitiful wife. I am NOT saying that's s FACT but to many people believe that's what happened to not be true. Everything was kept hush hush.
