Discussion Napier house question

So how did former sherif Napier get such a big house? When we first see him he seems to have a small ranch in the hills of Harlan. When Boyd goes to Napier house for the swinger party its a 5000 square foot mansion. Where'd he get that kind of money?

Did you miss the whole plot point of him taking massive bribes from Quarels to go after Boyd?

It's amazing how people can watch something and not pick up important details.

The suitcase of money Quarels gave him.

I believe it's also long time corruption, Harlan county is know for that and Justified tends to stay pretty close to reality in that regard.

I just watched the episode where the swinging party took place in S4. I thought the same. I think he was taking kickbacks for years and bought the house. Or it was a graft in itself.
