One of the oddest parts of the story of Gov. LePage holding eight meetings with members of the Constitutional Coalition involves the governor following the group’s request to have the sheriff of Kennebec County meet them. Later the group asked the sheriff to serve papers on Attorney General Janet Mills and Democratic leaders Mark Eves and Justin Alfond which would remove them from office.

In a document sent to the governor before the May 29, 2013 meeting which initiated this connection to the sheriff, the only one of the eight meetings held by teleconference, the group mentioned that violent options might be needed if they were blocked from providing evidence to a Grand Jury.

A document laying out discussion points for the teleconference stated:
At this point it seems the only way we can have our cards on the table is to request that in your official capacity you summon Sheriff Liberty and one of the superior court judges to meet with us and determine where the people stand in their ability and responsibility to instruct the servant government agents. Over years of being ignored and a long train of abuses the people’s options are diminishing and we will be left with the 1776 or the 1865 option.

The 1776 option refers to the American revolution and the 1865 option refers to the assassination of President Lincoln.
