Garrett said over the course of the evening, he did everything he could think of to get the house unstuck so it could be salvaged. But, he said, several of the well-intentioned efforts did significant damage to the house. For example, trying to push with one truck from behind while pulling from the front resulted in the hitch coming off and Barton's blue-walled bedroom being crushed.

Lee Roberts, owner of Roberts Heavy-Duty Towing in Lexington, said his company was called in to help. "We tried to pull the trailer back on the road but couldn't without tearing it to pieces."

Pushing it off they road wasn't their first action Bruce. They tried to pull it and even called another moving company. After 9hrs of standing in the rain directing traffic with my whole police force (one deputy), I would push the damn thing off the road too. Hell I woulda done it well before when they did. Also the lady and the man she hired didn't have proper permits, sheriff should have ticket'd them, but didn't. I think he gave them more than enough time and then took the only action he really could. He did what was best for public safety, not one family and their house. The house was going to get torn apart even if they had tried to move it regularly at that point.

That's because everyone involved was an idiot.
