'Sherrill's father, Joe Sherrill of Parkton, said he had made arrangements to pay the child support while his son was held hostage. ``We thought that we had paid it up, to be honest with you,' Sherrill said Friday. He said the payment was missed a couple of months, but he thought he had been able to catch up with an $1,800 payment in November and a $600 payment this month.' His Father didnt pay his alimony while he was overseas - then couldn't be fcked to go through the receipts to work out how much was still actually owing.
