ADA PLAYS 'HANGOVER HOOKY' ON MURDER TRIAL
Failure To Apperar to prosecute a murder trial is but one of the most recent abominations of Rob 'us' Freyer's illegal antics. Hired for his alleged prowess as a felony prosecutor even though warned by me that freyer is a drunk, leaves the SJC DA with egg on his face. The worst is yet to come if reliable Sentinel sources are to be believed. A felony crime in the guise of a quid pro quo scheme offered by Freyer in the presence of multiple credible and proven community members should result in felony charges.

FREYER'S FOLLIES GO NAT'L
The absolute, indisputable constitutional violation of going into a jail cell and STEALING the attorney client privilege communications of a defendant has gone mainstream. Is it my fault for writing about Rob(ber) Freyer's illegal antics when he stole Gibson's defendant list, defense strategy notes and attorney communications? Did I give Jamie Raskin the idea? Is he going to follow Freyer's other lead and start calling the defense witnesses on the list and threatening them if they testify like Freyer did?
As an ADA, you would think freyer the dirty deep fryer would have been reprimanded for those illegal actions reflecting on the entire criminal justice system in this district by the DA he works for. Nope. The ONLY one who rebuked Freyer's illegal and extremely unconstitutional acts was the Honorable 258th District Judge, Travis Kitchens. . That should have been the end of freyer's tenure in SJC but instead, Freyer went on to tamper with and submit fraudulent payroll documents in order to steal money from the tax payers of SJC while he was illegally campaigning to try to win the 258th bench. That crime should have put his corrupt ass in jail but not so much as a reprimand in his file.
If there is anyone in the county who has to be beyond reproach because of the absolute discretion he has, it is the prosecutor and his/her office.

JUDGE CANDIDATE PROPOSES DEBATE
A Republican Polk Co Judge candidate, Roy Grant, proposes having a debate for all of the Polk Co candidates for judge that will participate. "Get the largest venue they can." was his comment on the proposal. "Let all comers participate, democrat, independent, Green, Socialist, etc etc etc."
Grant's sign up is not official yet due to vacation of the county chair but he is ready to move forward with Laverty's expected return today.
So far, Grant's political foray has been commenting about Polk Co problems on his FB account. Notable similarities in his complaints and those recently made by former DA, Lee Hon on FB may stem from them both being life long residents and living in the same area of the county.

FORMER J.P. FILES CAMPAIGN TREASURER REPORT
The Honorable Justice of the Peace, Greg Magee has filed a Campaign Treasurer Report (CTR) with the San Jacinto County Elections Administrator for the up coming election. We have not been able to obtain the actual document yet but our sources indicate that Judge Magee has not designated a specific office that he is seeking. We did contact the Honorable Justice and inquired as to his intentions. Being old school, I don't record phone calls but this quote will be fairly accurate. Judge Magee shared that, "I just wanted to be prepared in case anything happens to keep someone from running. Sometimes people get sick or even die (editor note; SJC had a judge candidate die just before elections nearly 20 years ago.) and with my experience and background, I wanted to be prepared to step in and fill in if it became necessary."
To me, this is one of the most interesting developments in the political sphere of SJC this season. Knowing from reliable sources, documents and even an eye witness account that criminal activety and an investigation into aspects of the operation of the SJC DA's office are ongoing and that DA Todd Dillon, nor Freyer for that matter, have filed a CTR, Let it be noted that as a District Judge candidate, Freyer would have to sign up at state level.
Judge Magee's history and williness to serve may well come into play.
Judge Magee's first elected position was as Constable of Pct 4. During that tenure, he worked his way through Law School and got his degree and B.A.R. and served as our Elected Justice of The Peace in Pct 4 for many years. After retiring his postion as J.P., Judge Magee began to slowly reduce the volume of his specialty law practice by finishing up on cases he had but not taking any new clients. We have heard from readers that openly state that they have asked Judge Magee to run for office again.

HON CAMP AMUSES SENTINEL
Politics is always such a facinating time here in East Texas. Right on que, Hon's Honey came out of the wood work attacking my Sentinel Alert, my credibility and my journalistic skills. Pardon me if that makes me smile but when they do that, it just reminds me of the time Hon was under oath on the stand in his effort to illegally seize the personal phone records of Polk Co Clerk, Schelena Hock, my hero. In his line of questioning, Attny Mike Davis brought up my website where the 'offending' graphic had been published. Davis mentioned something about freedom of press and Hon, with his legs crossed at the knees, hands folded neatly said almost with a lisp looking right at me, "I don't consider him a journalist."
Just writing that makes me smile.
The spokesperson never provides any proof. When challenged for proof, her comment was, "The truth is the truth. I don't have to prove it."
The motto at The Sentinel is, "Truth Demands Scrutiny".
Sentinel is proud to have such a pretty stalker/spell checker as an apparent intern. Now if she could just get her facts straight. Trying to figure out why she works for free. Is it my rugged good looks? Incredible musculature, quick wit, high IQ or admiration of my testicular fortitude in the face of danger and false charges? We may never know.

A.G. DEFENDS 1st AMENDMENT . . .AGAIN
Attorney General Ken Paxton has sued to end three university work-study programs in Texas that unconstitutionally discriminate against religious students, including Christians, and sectarian employers.
The unconstitutional and discriminatory taxpayer-funded initiatives include the Texas College Work-Study Program, the Texas Working Off-Campus: Reinforcing Knowledge and Skills (“WORKS”) Internship Program, and the Texas Innovative Adult Career Education (“ACE”) Grant Program.
“These anti-Christian laws targeting religious students must be completely wiped off the books,” said Attorney General Paxton. “Our nation was built by patriotic Americans who had the freedom to express their religious beliefs without fear of being targeted, and we will honor that heritage by upholding the First Amendment in Texas.”
The programs violate the First Amendment by excluding religious organization and students receiving religious instruction from State funds and otherwise requiring State-funded activities to be “nonsectarian.” This amounts to a wholesale exclusion of certain people—no matter how otherwise eligible—from state benefits under the program based solely on the religious character of their course of study. Recent U.S. Supreme Court precedent and case law has made clear that this kind of discrimination is unlawful.
LATEST ELECTION NEWS
SJC Zack Currie has signed up to run against SJC Pct 4 Comissioner, Mark Nettuno.
A recent interview with Barbara Justice reveals that she is seriously considering running for office in SJC but that she has not made a final decision as to which position to run for. She has stated she will have to cross over from being a life long democrat and run on the Republican ticket.
POLK Co, Roy Grant, a former DPS Trooper and then D.O.J. INS officer has committed to running for Polk Co judge. He has stated he will run on the Republican ticket but cannot make it official until Monday because the county chair is out of town. Also, Larry Pfeil has announced his intentions to seek the same office. Larry is a business man who sources say, has a law degree but is not a member of the B.A.R. (British Accreditation Registry). He is a volunteer fireman in the Scenic Loop VFD Larry did attend the meet and greet for Judge Kitchens last night and had opportunity to meet many voters in Polk County.
UPDATE
DA Sitton recused herself and her office immediatly after SHE got the case from The Texas Rangers. Rangers investigated and made an arrest already and Hon's spokesperson failed to mention that part. Also, the mother of one of the students who were killed contacted The Honorable 258th District Judge Kitchens directly forcing him to have to recuse himself from the case. Not smart lady. The assignment of a new prosecutor and judge is in the hands of our Administrative Judge, The Honorable Robert Hill Trapp.
As far as the accusations regarding the SD card in the dash cam, it is damaged and the extent of the damage prevents the determination if it was intentionally wiped clean or not. The issue of damage to and avoiding prompt delivery of the dash cam footage is the main issue of contention left.
In Texas, the governor or a DA can call in the Rangers but each Texas Ranger is a commissioned Texas lawman and if he finds criminal acts, can investigate. on his own especially when public integrity is in question.
Hughes does own property in Corrigan including hiway frontage there. "Half of Corrigan" is not a lot. According to CAD records, the Hughes family do have holdings in the area. I see a civil suit being effective possibly.

CORRIGAN THROWS DOWN GAUNTLET
In their best effort to maintain position as the most corrupt town in Deep East Texas against all challengers (Onalaska), yet another exposition of that corruption in Corrigan has surfaced in the form of a Youtube video HERE. We cannot verify the accuracy nor do we intrude on Openshaw's traffic news but the allegations of evidence tampering are of public interest. With all of the lawlessness in Corrigan and Onalaska, it is only fair to observe that this video has been out for a day or so. Also it is the Hon Honey accusing me of "ignoring' it because it is not on my, what she still calls "your blog", front page. Now it is.

SJC DISTRICT CLERK HIGHEST TURNOVER
CORRECTION MY HEADLINE SAID TREASURER YESTERDAY. MY MISTAKE.
Ever miss the old days in San Jacinto County when you could walk into either of the Clerk's offices and know the deputy clerks because of their length of tenure? When Angelia Steele was County Clerk, we had over a hundred years worth of training and experience represented by her deputies. POOF gone. The so called 'republican sweep' swept all that out the door.
Records recently obtained prove over 18 employees have been hired and quit or were fired in the last 24 months byDistrict Clerk Tammy Currie So far in our investigation, it appears to be the highest turnover of any county office.

ISD SPENDS MAJOR MONEY TO PROTECT CORRUPT COP
Splendora ISD has hired an expensive and high powered law firm to fight the release of their records regarding the ex ISD Police officer, Sean Allison. Allison has been accused of carrying on an inappropriate relationship with a jr. hi student leading to him being cut loose.
After they kicked the corrupt can down the road, Allison hired on with Onalaska PD and promply was accused of carrying on a sexual relationship with a young girl in that community. According to her statement, which we obtained via open records request, she was sexually assaulted by a family member, called the law and Allison was the responding officer. Knowing the recent trauma and catching her holding and using illegal drugs, he didn't arrest her but started having a sexual relationship with her. This is the punk Splendora ISD is spending your tax money to shield from my open records request claiming the release would be, "embarassing". To who? Allison or the ISD?
Allison was raised in Splendora and went to school there.

DA'S GIVE PET ADA 'SOFT PLACE TO FALL'
Montgomery County DA and San Jacinto County DA have both given corrupt ADA Rob(ber) Freyer a misconception about the real world and law enforcement. Mont Co DA Ligon firing but not prosecuting Freyer for his drunken antics there and then SJC DA Dillon not even reprimanding Freyer for falsifying payroll documents, protesting the 258th court in favor of Cartel criminals and overlooking Freyer stealing an inmates private lawyer/client paperwork have made Freyer think he is above the law. NOT. The bad thing about that kind of stink is it smears around.
It kind of reminds me of the case of former COCISD police chief Roosevelt Joseph only filing drug charges on white kids when the black kids were smoking dope in the restrooms. Sentinel readers will remember the whole episode with the fake drug dog and 100 percent of the drug charges during his tenure being white kids. He even criminally charged one jr hi girl for having a midol in her purse that wasn't in the prescription bottle. I have the proof documents.
My point is that I ridiculed Roosevelt Joseph for teaching our black youth that there were no consequences for their crime. Sure enough, after graduation, three of our black youth went to jail in the real world for drug crimes within months of graduation. He thought he was giving them a break but instead taught them a wrong life lesson.
It is the same thing with Freyer and his look the other way bosses. We know he is a criminal and have proven it. Now he thinks he will get out in the world and continue with his lawlessness. We predict that freyer will find that thin blue line is not as strong or as long as he thinks it is. What a disservice to our communities.

ONALASKA 11/11/2025
MAJOR LIABILITY UNCHECKED
The absolute insanity of allowing a tyrant dumbass to roam the streets of Onalaska creating lawsuit after lawsuit cannot be overstated. With the pattern that has emerged, most might believe that I am referring to the city council being insane, and they are, but no. I am writing about the absolute blindness of the Texas Attorney General and the Federal law enforcement agencies.
The alleged, 'code enforcement officer' that does not meet any of the requirements set out in the laws of this Great State is violating the law, the constitution and just plain ole ethics every day he clocks in.
The most basic concept in the red tag laws is that if a property is red tagged, the citation MUST state the code or ordinance being violated, The REMEDY to fix the violation and the method to APPEAL. Makes sense doesn't it. Our State and Federal legislators thought so when they wrote and passed the laws. In his days at Onalaska, former code enforcer, Lee Parish always had those elements present if he were to red tag something or even just issue a citation.
Britton Shoelhornee, not so much. In fact, we can't find one.
Granted the city is in major violation of the open records laws because they are not providing the open records asked for.
From violations of warrantless entry to illegal search and citations without the elements required under law, Shoelhorn has subjected the city to fines of five thousand per day, per incident. Lets just do the math on one incident. We are over 45 days in. Do the math.
The city council blatant and repeated violations of the open meetings act speaks volumes and is done right under the nose of state and federal officials but nothing is done. The thing that really leaves me SMH is the city council voting and dropping the gavel on thier declaration that they declared themselves exempt from state and federal laws. You can't make this stuff up.
What a sad state when on Veterans day, The Sentinel has to twist up a corrupt cop who once served this nation. So many vets I know that support my efforts here say that their oath to support and defend the Constitution has no expiration date but apparently Shoelhornee's oathdid expire. Violating someone's constitutional rights under color of law is quite serious. We will explore that in greater depth soon. More evidence is in route to The Sentinel.
MARK BOEMIO
MONTGOMERY CO
FORMER SJC ADA CHARGED
Former San Jacinto and Liberty Co ADA Mark Boemio has been charged and had a PC affidavit for an arrest warrant filed. The misdomeanor charge is for for leaving the scene of an accident. A two vehicle collision last month led to the charges where it is alleged that Boemio left the scene on foot.
Kyle Hicks was the other driver who alleged that the vehicle driven by Boemio struck his vehicle while entering FM 1314 from a private drive near Sorters Rd.
Troopers found Boemio's vehicle a short distance from the scene but he was gone. The female occupant identified Boemio as the driver. Long time lawmen speculate that Boemio was avoiding a breathalyzer or toxicology test as the only probable reason for him to flee the scene.

UPS FLIGHT DETAILS EMERGE
A failure in the number one engine on the left wing ejected debris which took out the number 2 engine in the tail leaving only the right wing engine number 3 providing any thrust preventing take off. The thrust of the right engine caused the plane to rotate left in its attempt to become airborne.
"Too bad we didn't learn anything from the 1989 Souix City wreck of flight 232" a Fed Ex pilot lamented. Story of that incident linked to quote.
Even though it was a UPS plane that wrecked recently, all of the Fed Ex MD 11 pilots have been called back to base until the FAA and nanufacturer come up with a solution according to an always accurate Sentinel source.
FED Ex was originally the Flying Tigers Air and contracted mostly to the military transporting materials and personnel and families going overseas.

LIAR FREYER STUNS GROUP
I almost used the word 'crowd' instead of group but in order to maintain Sentinel credibility, I used group. The photo at left was submitted by a Sentinel reader and local resident (thankyou) during his recent meet and greet 'event'. It was taken right at the peak attendance around 7 pm and I got it at 7:38pm.
Freyer and his wife are circled in yellow. The Sentinel will give any candidate a campaign announcement. Here is yours.
Freyer did end up addressing the group of bar patrons and 'greeters' with several revealing comments. Originally, the 'event' was planned for the main building but was moved to the back porch right at the appointed time. Being open for business, the regular patrons were making better use of the main area.
The Sentinel has always contended that it is not me but'WE' who are The Sentinel. I wasn't there. Without community input and sources, there is no way
we would have the information and sources we enjoy. Thank God the honest public servants and Criminal Justice workers can't stand the slime balls that show up at the bottom of the barrel.
After I did interview multiple people who did attend the greeter, I shared some of the comments he was quoted as making with a couple of experienced political pundits. One of thelearned ones said, "You are living rent free in his head Steve."
The first comment was, "That is a real picuture of me with President Trump. Don't believe what anyone writes about me or says. It is a real picture." Then he went on to say, "And I do live in San Jacinto county."
LIAR but who?
Robber Freyer tells the taxpayers that he lives in SJC. Freyer's wife, DDS Coconu tells the Montgomery County Central Appraisal District that she lives and has her homestead in Montgomery co, The Woodlands. Did you guys split up? You are so often together for public appearance. You peddle pickles together and donate to SAAFE house. They splash FB with it. How supportive of your campaign.
We see your drinking selfies are in DDS Coconu's kitchen with her baby girl there. Are you drinking there and then driving all the way to SJC to your non homestead property which is in her name too? Married couples are only allowed one homestead in the state. If yall are married and not just shacking up, her homestead is your homestead and you DON'T live in SJC. Which is it?
Next time you visit the Snow Hill property you bought in SJC just so you could run for office and are out to open the gate, take a moment and look around and find the highest hill that overlooks your gate. Then go see who owns that ole barn looking house and high hill. LOL. See if you can find a connection between the that family and ME. Not only that, you WOULD, if you ever went there, have to drive past their house to get to your investment propery you have offered as an Air BnB before. Go try your damn tired lies somewhere else. We've had a belly full.
As far as your intended insults against the Honorable Travis Kitchens for not seeing him on the campaign trail, you are right. He and his dedicated staff are working hard every day. Now I do know that Judge Kitchens has stopped into a fund raiser for the American Legion on his time and the Coldspring VFD. At the Legion, he took time to set in with the band for a few numbers because he loves good music and he plays a mean bass. Not only did The Judge sponsor the fish fry for their fund raiser, he made a generous donation to the Legion on top of that while he was there. Judge Kitchens also made an appearance at a VFD fundraiser recently, spent time with his constituents, voted for the best chili and made a donation to that worthy cause. I found out from people who were there. You won't see all of that splashed across social media because that isn't his motive or style. His motive is to appreciate the great things about and good people in our community, not stroke his own ego.
This brings me to the part of the meet and greet story that makes me ANGRY everytime I think about it. That is when you humilited a little 8 or 9 year old girl at the bar for your political purpose. Granted I don'thave it recorded but two reliable witnesses shared nearly identical quotes of your comment. As mothers, they were stunned.
You turned to the little girl that was standing by DDS Coconu's daughter and close to your position and said, "Your dad is no good but you have a new daddy now. I am going to put him away for a long time but it won't be long enough."
If this child is a new family member, forgive me mentioning it. But if she is nothing more than political fodder for you, which is the way mothers in the audience took it, you are a low life.
I will be in to ask you in person next week and submit an open records request for one of your cases. I don't have the cause number, but you will recognize it. The male teacher fired from Uvalde County, Knippa I.S.D. for an inappropriate relationship with a student that moved to Coldspring. You know the one. He became HS and JH coach and He was caught 'sexting' a 12 year old girl in our community sending penis pics and soliciting nude pics from her.
One of the great ADA's in the SJC DA's office had him up on felony charges with jail time. She was going to force him to give up his teacher credintials and force him to register for life as a sex offender. Remember now? It is the one you took over as lead ADA in the office and pled down to a misdomeaner with probation, let him keep his teaching certification if my sources are correct, and dropped the registration requirement. The lady ADA resigned her position in response to your dispicable actions and the DA allowing you to do that.
Please, have that file redacted by next wednesday so I can review the arrest document and get copies of the the lady ADA's original charging instrument. I want to compare and contrast those with your final plea deal for The Sentinel readers so they can go tot he polls fully informed.
UPDATE
CITY COUNCIL SNUBS NOSE AT OAG RULINGS AND OPINIONS
Even with the rulings and opinions laid out in writing in plain english, Onalaska city council declares they will do it their way anyway.
DISCLAIMER
Just for clarification, my beef with corruption in Onalaska is against the P.D. and council members. Those guys come and go but I do pay respect to the ladies that work as clerks and such. Ms. Stutts has always been quite professional, transparent and honest with me as a journalist. The young lady that is the court clerk withstood an onslaught of pressure yesterday of advocate and activists demanding answers and action and NEVER lost her composure or professionalism. She earned my greatest respect for that. The city accepted the motion Kirchmer submitted yesterday and set him a court date.
Once again, hats off to the ladies who are doing their jobs with Grace and poise under pressure. As for the chief of police, I warned you all about him being a corrupt bully with a badge before you hired him and the council hired him anyway. Either you did no background check into why he was fired or else you recognized the exact traits you were looking for in him and hired him. Here are your come uppins. You hire a corrupt cop as chief, you get a corrupt P.D. He hires corrupt officers like Shoelhorn.
ONALASKA 11/6/2025
cop CORRUPTION CAPITOL OF EAST TEXAS
Onalaska city council has recently cemented their burg and unique form of city government as the corruption capitol of East Texas. Most think Onalaska operates under a Type A mayor/council form of government but recent actions and relations have brought out the fact that Onalaska operates under an incest, inbred corrupt cop coddling form of government. What is sad is the voters there seem to eat it up.
We can recount some of the historical evidence pointing to that fact. Tammy Heeth, Christopher Lima, Gabriel Moore, officer Tooley, chief Gilbert, Byron Dunaway, etc etc etc.
The latest is the so called, 'code enforcement' guy, Shoelhorn. What a dumbass he is. A man comes to city council to complain about Shoelhorn's already illegal and unethical actions. The council votes to embrace Shoelhorns corruption, drops the gavel and exits quickly. The next day some corrupt judge signs a search warrant and Shoelhorn comes out to the man's property and cites him on 26 seperate "violations". Nothing had changed at his house. His building permit was still displayed. He still used his private property for his own pursuit of life, liberty and happiness. Can we say, 'retaliation' in its truest and most corrupt form? The BS charges range from littering to un neutered stray cats.
The private property owner already had a rock solid case but now it is a slam dunk. Onalaska 'just us' will ok the corruption but if he will just get clear of that quagmire, Truth and real Justice will prevail. First city court appearance on the bogus 26 charges is this morning.
They are used to free rein in Polk Co. Heeth testified under oath that the fomer DA Hon told her to charge the maximum possible That is how her own confusing traffic control waves in the school car rider line and her stepping out to bang on the mother's car morphed into 'Agg Assault with a deadly weapon" charges and a mom of elementary kids facing 25 years in prison. Thank God Truth and Justice premailed. It turned out Onalaska P.D. assigned Heeth to do her own internal affairs investigation on the complaint filed against her. What a crock of HOOEY Onalaska P.D. has become in its downhill slide since then.

MIDDLEMAN MANIPULATES MASS EMAIL
Nexus Strategies has apparently started his/her cheating games again as the complaints roll in from voters across San Jacinto County. They claim the freyer campaign has emailed them unwanted lying campaign propaganda messages. "How did he get my email address?" was the question all of them asked.
We asked, "Have you been to one of his campaign events?. All said NO. Have you been to either Republican Party or Republican club events? YES and most often to both was the constant answer.
Hmmmmm. Makes us wonder if the allegedly neutral party chair, Dwayne Wright or his underling, George Garrett has taken money to stab the encumbant republican office holder in the back and take money to help the corrupt freyer campaign.
As is our method, The Sentinel has asked Dwayne Wright, who has a history of underhanded tactics, if he supplied the Republican Party email list to the corrupt freyer. He has not responded.
Sentinel readers will remember Wright as Nexus Strategies taking ten thousand from the Holt campaign (GROK says 21 thousand plus just from Holt campaign)to backstab the encumbant last election cycle and trying to hide it. It was The Sentinel that proved the address supplied for the "Nexus Strategies" was the exact same as the residential address of Dwayne and Dawn Wright. That is why I say, "him or her" because once the Wrights were exposed for the cheating, he has ghosted The Sentinel and stopped responding to our inquireries. We dont expect the little sneak to answer this question either but I ask, who else has access to the entire email list of the local Republican party members?
Here is some of what GROK AI has to say about Wright's 'nexus strategic'.
Nexus Strategies (also referred to as Nexus Strategic in some professional profiles) is a small political consulting firm based in Cleveland, Texas, specializing in campaign strategy, media relations, and consulting services for Republican candidates and organizations. It appears to operate primarily as a sole proprietorship or small entity led by Dwayne Wright, with no prominent public website or large-scale online presence identified. The firm is frequently mentioned in Texas campaign finance disclosures as a vendor for “consulting expenses,” “salaries,” and “event expenses,” particularly in connection with state-level Republican campaigns. Payments to Nexus Strategies from public records total tens of thousands of dollars in recent years, often tied to grassroots organizing, advertising, and strategic advising. The firm lacks extensive public documentation, suggesting it functions as a boutique operation supporting local and state-level GOP efforts rather than national or high-profile races. Criticisms from local watchdog sources portray it as a vehicle for potentially opaque financial dealings, though these claims remain unverified beyond anecdotal reporting.
GROK still list Wright as Rep Holt's chief of staff when he was fired for operating 'state level campaigns' out of her office per my source there.

WOODY'S JAIL BOND FAILS AT POLLS
An unusually light voter turnout partially because of much confusion as to polling places saw Woody Wallace's hopes of taxing the voters for a new jail facility fall flat. 1400 to 1000 are the approximate numbers of votes with the No's taking the majority.
"I would rather see the historic old jail revamped and preserved or even added on too." was one reaction we received. A common concern for the failing water infrastructure was also given as a reason for a NO vote on the new jail.
258 th District
FREYER LIARS FABRICATE FACTS, TAINT JURY POOL
The latest rendition is BS in uncontrolled comments on the SJC Sheriff FB page claiming Judge Kitchens released John Lindsey on bond. The simplest research shows that case was assigned to Judge Delaney and that The Honorable Travis Kitchens has NOTHING to do with any of it. The magistrate set the bond. Delany is assigned and it is in the 258th but Judge Kitchens has not been involved. Facts don't seem to matter to the Freyer LIARS Club. Even with no intent on his part, SJC Sheriff is contributing to the tainting of the jury pool by not limiting the comments on his official FB page. Sheriff Capers used the FB to dissiminate pertinent information to the community but would not allow unfettered obviously lying comments to circulate via his FB. Sheriff Houston needs to consider adopting a similar policy for the accused to be able to get a fair trial here.
The Fryer Liars seem to forget Freyer was arrested for DWI in his past, posted a dozen FB selfies involving him drinking, He has since scrubbed his FB of those but too late. Freyer was caught red handed falsifying govt payroll documents for himself and just flat lied to the voters of SJC. How stupid does he and the Fryer Liars think the voters are? He doesn't think we see through him ignoring an actual domestic violence case with cold hard evidence in favor of just peddling pickles and donating the proceeds to SAAFE House? That is his version of fighting domestic violence? We would rather have an honest prosecutor. We do have some good ones in the SJC DA's office but freyer is NOT one of them. He would know the facts of the Lindsey murder case if he wasn't out politicking on county time across three counties.
We at The Sentinel do blelieve that the US has the greatest criminal justice system in the world as long as we can keep the likes of freyer out of the driver's seat.
An excellent example is the recently killed DPS Trooper, Adamick who was rushing to backup a fellow officer on a dangerous call. He died a hero in the eyes of the community. He was the real deal.. What most don't know about Adamick jr is that he had a tumultous time as a teen and was facing jail time based on criminal charges out of his neighborhood. Typical dumbass teen crap but when he came to court to face the charges, the judge gave the young Adamick the choice of joining the Army or going to TYC facility. He signed up and did twenty years in the army. They made a responsible young man out of him He came out of there and joined DPS and was all about backing up his fellow officer.
What could have been a wasted life in jail, a perceptive judge turned around for the benefit of Adamick, his neighborhood and our community. THAT is what holds the US system above the rest of the world. Honest judges and prosecutors with discretion.

UPDATE 11/3/2025
JUDGE SEES THRU BS tells prosecutor
"Dec first we set a trial date whether you are ready or not."
WALKER COUNTY 11/2/2025
D.A. STACKING CHARGES, DELAY DELAY DELAY
In just shy of three years, this cause has had sixteen dockett calls, six jury trial settings, eight pre trial hearings and the false accuser hasn't shown up yet. The state files for subpoenas, subpoenas returned then they ask for continuance over and over.
Meanwhile, the defendant can't travel, has been on bond and forced to check in with probation, pay fees and drug tests but never had a trial. Walker County female ADA's have perfected the corrupt Lee Hon tactic and strategy of making the process to be the punishment. From one single incident where the breaking up couple (he found out she was married and had been lying about living with her mother) agreed to meet in a public place for her to get her stuff out of his vehicle. Video proves they met in a public parking lot, she got in his vehicle and rode off with him to talk and a few hours later he brought her back to the same spot. She got out and got in her daughter's car whom she called to meet her on a phone he paid for. That is on video. As the daugher and her drove off, he noticed her pipe and pills on his floorboard so he pulled infront of her car to stop her. She called the law on him.
At this time, we pulled into the store ourselves and I recognized his vehicle and saw HPD arresting the defendant and did video the arrest. The arresting documents prove she told the cops he was a two time felon in posession of a firearm. It was a lie. (not her first or last) He has NEVER been convicted of any crime and was legal to have a pistol in his vehicle.
I wrote a story (Go to Texas Page, sub page Walker Co) that day about the false arrest and the JP dismissed the charges and let him go the next morning because he had checked and seen that my story was true and the man had never been convicted of any crime. At this point, she should have gone to jail for false report. Oh did I mention her then boyfriend, now hubby is white, was born and raised in Walker Co. has family money and retired from the I.S.D. system?
The Pulling in front of the car to stop her to get her pipe and pills out of his truck was presented and indicted as, "Agg Assault with a Deadly Weapon." He is arrested and makes bond. A few of the dockett calls and trial settings later and he shows up for thinking it is trial day and they arrest him in the court room for Agg Assault with a Deadly Weapon' for having a pistol in his vehicle. No new incident. No new complaint. No new evidence just a lying cheating bitch they knew already was a lying cheating bitch and a corrupt DA willing to stack bogus charges. He isn't thru yet.
Rock along with multiple more dockett calls and trial settings and once again, they arrest him out of the court room when he shows up for trial and arrest him for "Agg Kidnapping". No new incident. No new statement. No new evidence. Just a stubborn righteous black man refusing to take a verbal plea bargain. That pisses corrupt DA's off so they stack on more charges.
From the extremely racist rants I received directly from the boyfriend who found out she was coming to SJC for her BBC, knowing his influence in Walker co, it seems the underground railroad has hit reverse gear and is being used for retaliation of a bruised ego.
At the end of his racist threatening rant to me that he is nobody "you want to fu#k with", all I can say is, apparently you are Robert. I have been fighting liars with my free speech for decades. I back up my 1st amendment rights with my 2nd amendment rights.
I pray that Truth and Justice prevail finally. Amen
In the midst of the 70 lines of entry of court action on this case is a Motion in Limine to repress certain evidence. I just have to wonder if it the Burke Center paperwork on her being there for mental evaluation some time back or possibly the police report she filed claiming three men including her now husband raped her causing her to go to the hospital. First the attorney said they found that report and now say they didn't. Just wondering.
SPLENDORA I.S.D.
We gave the I.S.D. ample opportunity to produce the records we were seeking from them with the assurance we would not name the I.S.D. CRICKETS. So now, falling back on my Dad's teaching on raising boys to, "know the answer before you ask the question", we offer this documented evidence to prove that Splendora I.S.D. just kicked the can down the road knowing he is a danger to underage females. It didn't take long for him to strike again once he was hired in Onalaska. Sean Allison has given up his TCOLE.
ONALASKA 10/28/2025
ANOTHER CORRUPT COP HIRED
After leaving a job with an East Texas I.S.D. Police Department amid credible allegations of having an inappropriate relationship with a minor child in the school, the guy's tenure was ended. There is no available record of any criminal complaint or prosecution filed against him in that city or county but he did move up this way and hire on with Chief Stanton at Onalaska PD, Byron Dunaway kept him on exposing the youngsters in Onalaska to the perv.
FAST FORWARD.
The Sentinel has been ivestigating this particular officer for a couple months or so based on multiple complaints from different sources that don't know each other yet had similar complaints.
Newer allegations of inapprpriate relationships with minors (note the plural nature of that statement) have surfaced since hiring on with Chief Stanton and Byron keeping him. Credible sources claim this officer is under investigation again.
HYPOCRITE
Peddle Pickles or Prosecute Perps?
The photo at left is of injuries to a woman during a domestic violence incident in SJC less than a year ago. This photo along with others were submitted to SJC ADA by the victim as proof of the crime. Crickets. Despite assurances by the lesser ADA that it would be prosecuted, Freyer as the lead ADA did nothing..
To see freyer on social media flaunting a 200 dollar donation to SAAFE house from peddling his pickles as doing his part to 'fight' domestic violence while he ignores cases of a big strong man abusing and injuring a woman just makes his whole campaign, 'tough on crime' lie ring hollow. SAAFE HOUSE is a great and worthy project but the prosecutor is our first line of defense.
The perpetrator has been positively identified since day one. Her victim injuries did require hospital treatment. oh but that is right. His daddy is an influential political ally.

CHILI COOKOFF
Coldspring Volunteer Fire Dept had their annual chili cookoff and auction fundraiser today. The event attracted many participants and at least one world traveling, renowned international chef as a judge. The people's choice and the judge's choice for first place differed.
Chris Haylock, Riley Holeman, Stephen Watson and Morgan Allen were the winners.
Croix Don Bosco, a New Zealander was conscripted into serving as a judge. The local judges were JP1 Christina Magee and Treasurer candidate, Cindi McClure. It was a good natured event and the donations for auction ranged from strawberry cake to a chain saw The Honorable 258th District Judge, Travis Kitchens showed up, browsed the aution items and made a donation to the VFD. Watson took second place with his 'Deer Chili' recipe but volunteer firefighters carried the day. The costume contest was fun too.
TOWN CRIER
10/23/2025 TRINITY CO
INFRA STRUCTURE BE DAMNED, FULL SPEED AHEAD
Reports from Trinity County claim that the bond election for a new jail says, "This will raise your taxes." right across the top of the ballot. Indicators are the people are against the project and all but one commissioner opposes it and for good reason. The water system is dangerous and can't handle it.
The attached letter was sent to bill paying customers but apartment complex residents and any who don't pay a bill have probably not seen it. "I have a bladder tumor right now." one local shared, "and I quit drinking the water several years ago."
The letter speaks of added chlorine reacting with "organic matter' in the water to form the dangerous contaminants. that includes the schools and nursing homes, the most vunerable.
Just a few months ago, three plumbers working in a sewer manhole in Trinity were overcome by H2S gas and died on the spot from a sewer pipe break that was leaking the deadly gas into the manhole. That gas formation was attributed to sulfer and 'organic material' in the sewer reacting to form the posionous gas.
Despite the raising of taxes, the limitations on infrastructure and the public health concerns, SJC's corrupt ADA Freyer was at the political breakfast yesterday stumping for his buddy Woody's pet jail project and his own struggling campaign. Sources say freyer likes his woody time in the morning but courthouse watchers do confirm that freyer was back at the SJC courthouse by 9 am for work.
So now we know Dwayne Wright politics with his woody wind obeau and freyer with his morning woody time.
Did anyone see who was, 'makin bacon' at the event?
CURRIE DRINKING ON COUNTY TIME
COLDSPRING 10/18/2025
SJC DISTRICT CLERK DUCKING OPEN RECORDS
It has been an exercise in pulling teeth to try and get a simple answer to a simple question from District Clerk, Tammy Currie. I submitted my request Oct 6th and yet to get an answer. She has sent several requests for, 'clarification'. The last stating she had to have a beginning date and an end date. My simple request was for copies of the receipts her and her deputies wrote for copies and certifications of copies for the last 12 months.
I replied that Oct 6, 2025 was the end date and so Oct 6th, 2024 was the beginning date.
After mulling the situation over and seeking counsel from learned men and women, I realized several options. I could get a brown paper bag and a crayon and try again. I could recommend she hire a high school girl to splain it to her but she has very capable deputies. Then the option I chose. I can just ask the folks she is required by law to submit her financial reports to and request those.
Constant complaints of Currie not processing court orders and forwarding and filing them in a timely manner keep coming in. Most recently an estranged wife complained that the order for spousal support took three months to be filed by Currie. Does she have trouble comprehending documents or just not a team player?
Several claim Currie is openly supporting robber freyer but that could be based on their common penchant for the drinking even on county time as proven by the attached photo. Is that what is causing SJC to be a bottle neck in the Criminal Justice system at the District Clerk level?
ONALASKA << 10/20/2025
O.P.D. CHIEF & CODE ENF
Play stupid games, winning stupid prizes
Several Onalaska residents have complained to The Sentinel of similar unfounded harrassment by the city of Onalaska Code Enforcement officer backed by the bully in chief, Byron Dunaway.
This particular property was red tagged first and when the property owner didn't cowtow and kiss boots, the red tag was replaced with the pictured stop work order claiming no permit for the construction.
How retarded. The permit is displayed in the window, the permit is numbered and in the system to be reviewed but Shoelhorn is willing to issue a stop work order on false pretenses.
On his first visit, Shoelhorn is quoted as saying, 'I stopped by because I saw an OPEN PERMIT in the system and wanted to check progress."
Onalaska is so far out on a limb with violations of the law that those facts presented in evidence will dictate a declaratory judgement be rendered if it goes to court.
When The Sentinel receives several complaints of the same corrupt nature against the same public officials by people who don't know each other, have no political ambition and are not disgruntled former employees, we dig. We require evidence before we move forward with the investigation. It doesn't take much to find contracts being let by the city with no posting. You don't have to look far to see the Arnett family affair.
Onalaska spells NEPOTISM with capital letters.
It is no secret that The Sentinel opposed the appointment of Byron Dunaway as C.O.P, because he is corrupt and will play corrupt games. He hires corrupt cops and fires the good ones.
W. MARVIN WATSON
SJC'S NATIVE SON AND A MARINE
William Marvin Watson was born in Oakhurst, Texas. He received a bachelor's degree in economics and an M.B.A. from Baylor University, which he initially attended on a music scholarship.
Watson entered the United States Marine Corps during World War II and saw action in the Pacific campaign during the later stage of the war. He began working for Johnson during the 1948 primary campaign for the Democratic nomination to run for the United States Senate. At that time, there was no noteworthy Republican Party in Texas, so the primary would effectively decide the election.
Watson continued being active in local politics as a "Johnson Man," rising to become the head of the Democratic Party in Texas. In 1960, he both helped organize the Kennedy/Johnson campaign in Texas while also working directly for Johnson as an aide while campaigning across the United States. During Johnson's years as both a senator as well as vice president, he repeatedly asked Watson to join his staff, but Watson declined, preferring the freedom of remaining an independent adviser to LBJ, rather than an employee.
Johnson called upon Watson to help organize the 1964 Democratic Convention in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Watson found it necessary to remove many Kennedy family loyalists from the convention staff, as he became convinced that they were working to either force Johnson to accept Robert F. Kennedy as his running mate, or else stampede the delegates to have RFK nominated for the presidency instead of Johnson.
Watson became the White House Chief of Staff in all but name as White House Appointments Secretary to Johnson in 1965, helping to coordinate passage of much of the Great Society domestic agenda.[3] In this position, his workday frequently began shortly after 6:00 in the morning, and he routinely didn't return home for the day until midnight or later; even during his off hours, he remained on call, and quite often found himself back at his desk in the White House on Sundays in order to deal with sudden issues. He was appointed Postmaster General in 1968, and was the last surviving cabinet-level Postmaster General at the time of his death.
After the end of the Johnson administration in 1969, Watson became an official with Armand Hammer's Occidental Petroleum, working with Armand Hammer.[4] He had been offered the U.S. ambassadorship to Australia by Richard Nixon, but declined so as to be able to spend more time with his family.
Watson delivered a eulogy at Johnson's state funeral in January 1973, emphasizing Johnson's unswerving dedication to the betterment of America.
Marvin Watson's dad and my dad's father were brothers. My ucle Johnny Watson was a travelling preacher and a pastor at Center Hill Baptist Church where he is buried. Marvin served as president of Texas Baptist College (now university) Uncle Johnny was Sunday School teacher and preacher to Dalton Currie and his mother. Dalton Currie is pastor at Evergreen Baptist. Zack Currie is pastor at the Cowboy Church.
PCT 3 SJC
A Pct 3 resident of SJC has filed a campaign Treasurer report naming failed judge candidate, Shirley Brandon, wife of failed commissioner candidate, David Brandon as her treasurer. The form has left the name of the office Ms. Pinkston intends to run for blank.
"I haven't decided yet" was Ms. Pinkston's reply during a recent Sentinel interview. Ms. Pinkston assured that she would make a decision in a couple of days and that I could call back to find out.
I think the involvement with Shirley Brandon, if she influences Pinkston, the advice will be to run against the person Brandon would pobably blame the most for her astounding 8500 vote to her 149 votes for the largest loss in SJC history.

CESS POOL FORMS UNDER GOP HEADQUARTERS
or, DWAYNE WRIGHT RIDES AGAIN
or, BIRDS OF A FEATHER FLOCK TOGETHER
It has only been a few weeks since D Wright got fired from The State Rep's office in Austin but he is already spreading his corruption stink in SJC again. Now he has a helper. Enter stage Left, George Garrett. FB friend to robber Freyer and wife coconu. Brown nose to DWright. Wright's boyGeorge got to emcee the recent SJC gathering of the republican party. As such, wright's brown nose allowed his FB buddy robber Freyer to interupt and announce his candidacy and speak before the crowd. boy george failed to allow the incumbant 258th District Judge, The Honorable Travis Kitchens to speak even though he was present. Some folks would call it rude, others would say bad form. Those in the know regarding election ethics would say, "unethical". Me, I am a country boy. I just call it chickensh*t BS or typical Dwayne Wrightisms. Now we see why you got the job boy 'the brown nose' george.
My birds of a feather headline is based on the fact that Wright embezzled money from the republican party to buy a new truck years ago. He fought my open records request claiming the OAG and lawyer for the RPT agreed he didn't have to answer me about the public money. I took it to OAG and he said Wright did have to answer. Wright could not account for the money but the New Red Ford Truck was in his driveway. One thief endorsing another. Go figure.
Speaking of robber freyer's endorsers, we got some more info on his supporter the disgraced former cop, Teddy Sims. We will have all the records soon.
What these yahoos don't understand is that there is more to being a conservativ e than running or voting republican. Sure there is the fiscal aspect of conservatism but the most important element is MORAL conservatism. True conservatives don't have to lie, cheat to win or steal money from tax payers. By that criteria, there is not a true conservative in the local leadership of the party or club. Wright lied about the money he stole for the pickup. Freyer lied to steal payroll money from SJC. True conservatives don't take back door bribes to manage a campaign from the party chair position defined by law as neutral.
At least wright was open about one thing by naming his cover organization, "Nexus Strategies" to hide the money. Nexus does mean, hub or "middleman"or link between.
What is in a name? lets see. how about, "bought with party funds"
Dwayne Wright. I called the State Rep's office for political input like I do every election season and you weren't there. Any statement you would like to make? You have my email address and phone number. I am all ears. I am sure my readers want to know what happened. You made a public statement when you hired on. Why nothing on your way out the door? Are you back home in SJC 'contracting' with candidates to run their campaigns from your 'neutral' position as party chair again? Do you have other political ambitions of your own here? They said you were practicing your campaign methods.

POLITICAL DISCLAIMER FOR SENTINEL
Any snide remarks, uncomfortable truths or plain out insults published on The Sentinel are mine, only mine and will remain only mine. On the same token, any positive, pleasant and absolute truths that I publish are my and only MY opinion. You may share those opinions but the ones I publish are MINE. I feel the need to clarify because The way I work is to vett the candidates and report what I find.
In that reporting about an SJC District Clerk candidate, I referenced the backlog of cases Lee Hon left. From the call I got from her friend, the best candidate was afraid people might think she was slinging mud and wanted to avoid any appearance of wrong doing. What a lady. But then she does work for and has been trained by thePolk Co District Clerk, the best in this part of Texas.
Our incumbant District Clerk in SJC , Ms. Currie on the other hand can be quite rude, dismissive and definately inefficient when it comes to the necessary flow of information and documentation to the court and criminal justice system. My personal experience that I wrote about in the past was when two people went in for copies of the same file and one was charged the legal ten cents per page and the other (ME) was charged a dollar a page by Ms. Currie for the same exact file.
I do have a source that claims Ms. Currie's reluctance to send out the notices required by law is so those attorneys are forced to come in and pay for a copy and the certification of that copy building her up a slush fund. We are going to seek open records on all of the fees collected by Ms. Currie and the corresponding deposits into the county coffers and see where that leads. Come on Monday morning.

Dallas and Plano views peaking so I thought I would change the image from top ten cities to this snip of a spread sheet of the correspondence between Kelly Selmer Wineingar and our then county auditor on the topic of her bond needed to take office after she was elected. Keep in mind, one bond co that turned her down cold was her own brother's company out of Huntsville. These emails were obtained via an open records request The Sentinel submitted. Copies available to any who request them.

An apparent political masochist, Kelly Wineingar, AKA Kelly Selmer has opted to run for Hunt County Clerk again. I couldn't help but grin when I read her new campaign motto of, "Proven record in county government" LOL ain't that the truth. She has a proven record all right. Proven Liar, Backstabbin, Marital bed cheating, public duty deserting violator of the public trust. Did I mention her bad credit and inability to procure a bond even from her own brother's bonding company? We can get to all of those documents as time allows. Wineingar is running against the same incumbant as last time.

FREYER'S FOLLIES AND THE SMOKING GUN
BELOW are the fruits of several open records requests that were answered. We requested the video from SJC for the same days but were denied. The judge aknowledged receiving my request and stated in email that he had forwarded it to the S.O. who was over courthouse security and the PIO for SJC. Neither answered or provided the video from SJC. Finally, I was told that the recording system had 'over written' itself and they never got the request. Reeks of the ADA cahooting with the IT guy or sheriff to keep me from getting the proof he skipped work those days. Just like my daddy taught me, the secret to raising boys was know the answer before you ask the question.
Herein lies the proof that Freyer is a liar, a thief and willing to tamper with govt documents and falsify payroll records to fraud the tax payers. And he wants to be judge? PALEEEESE!!!! Hard pass on that.
I really resent the violations of the open records laws that SJC committed but they know I won't hire a lawyer just to pursue them. Why pay hundreds or thousands of dollars for a lawyer when for 29.99 a month, I can blast them for their corruption on my front page?
Remember this classic photo of Freyer? Has he prosecuted you or yours for child endangerment? Have you had to pay a no seatbelt ticket in SJC?

TEXAS TROOPER ADAMICK
SAN JACINTO COUNTY 9/23/2025
OVERFLOW CROWD AT FUNERAL SERVICE
Between 750 and 800 folks showed up to pay last respects to the man, the father, the son, the husband the Trooper who was killed in the line of duty recently. Racing toward danger because his fellow officer had called for backup on a "Deadly Conduct" call, Trooper Adamick's sense of urgency combined with being relatively new to his SJC assigned area contributed to his tragic and heartbreaking death. That tricky double curve by the river that even life long locals have trouble with threw another cowboy Sept 16th.
At least half of those in attedance this morning were in uniform. Not just DPS either. folks from every aspect of public service and emergency response made their appearance to pay their respects.
After 21 years service in the US Army, Trooper Adamick had only been with DPS for a year on the day he was killed but it was plainly obvious that he has earned a lot of respect from a lot of people in this part of Texas in that short time. A contingent of at least 50 TDCJ personel were there in uniform.
"He never worked at TDCJ but they were there." one close to the events stated. All four of our SJC Justices of The Peace and County Judge. were there. EMS, Firefighters, LEO's and criminal justice workers surrounded The Troopers family and close friends to help hold them up during this trying time.
We as a community are thankful that men and women a lot like Trooper Adamick still submit to the Calling on their life to serve and do it with a Servant's heart to the very end. Men and women that go to pull on their boots in the morning knowing they are heading into danger but do it everyday anyway. Thankyou for your service Trooper.
"I am glad we have a memorial park to remember him but the sad truth is, there will be others" an elected official shared.

KIRK MURDER
SHOOTER is a practicing Mormon. They teach that Jesus is the spirit child of Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother. They refer to Jesus as the brother of Lucifer who proposed a better plan of redemption and won the designation “Messiah.” They also promote and internal prophecy that the mormon church will save America in the last days. Idiotic cult crap Add the leftist hate rhetoric to his belief that Charlie Kirk's hero, Jesus Christ was lucifer's brother and there you go. Anyone that will listen to an 'angel' named MORONi is lacking cognitive skills.

RUMORS FLY ABOUT HOURS AND PHOTOS
"Scrambling" was the word used to describe corrective efforts after it was rumored that video does exist contradicting the payroll documents submitted by SJC ADA "Agg" Rob Freyer for this last month's hours.
The rumors are true. Documents and video do exist. His payroll hours documents are fraudulent. We have the documents 'dirty deep' freyer submitted by way of an open records request answered by DA Todd Dillon.
Sentinel readers know that the video The Sentinel requested from SJC Security was recorded over destroying it after our open records request for the video was submitted and aknowledged received.
More evidence of ADA 'dirty deep' Freyer's dishonesty will bedocumented for all time by a lying political ad freyer placed in the News Times that will be out in the next issue.
Freyer attempts to attribute a case to Judge Kitchens when it was actually Judge Martin who saw the case through.
All I can say is that any prosecutor that will lie to us and steal from us would have no qualm dropping an innocent man in a 'dirty deep fryer'

Prosecutors hold a unique position of public trust. Their primary duty, as outlined in legal and ethical guidelines, is not to simply secure a conviction but to "see that justice is done." This responsibility includes upholding the integrity of the legal process and ensuring the fairness of adjudicatory proceedings.
Altering a government document is a direct violation of this duty. For a prosecutor, such an act also violates core professional conduct rules, such as those regarding candor toward a Court and fairness in proceedings. A prosecutor who falsifies documents or evidence or knowingly presents altered documents to a court can face not only criminal charges but also severe professional consequences, including disbarment.
The legal system relies on the honesty and integrity of all its participants, especially those in positions of authority like prosecutors. When a prosecutor alters a government document, it erodes public trust and undermines the fundamental principles of justice. It can lead to wrongful convictions or the dismissal of valid cases, and in all instances, it casts a shadow on the entire legal profession.
It has come to the Sentinel's attention that such an act is potentially occurring in the San .Jacinto District Attorney's office . Allegations of time sheet alterations and hours worked by 'wish he was acandidate' Rob Freyer are being talked about all over the County.
The Sentinel Alert has requested and received the payroll time sheets of Mr. Freyer and if the allegations can be proven, Mr. Freyer owes the tax payers of the County some serious monies as well as an explanation on why he is not working 40 hours a week at his estimated $100,000 per year job. Not to mention, why is DA Todd Dillon allowing Mr. Freyer to alter time sheets?
These allegations stem from his visit to the Polk County Courthouse in Livingston on August 4th and 5th to apparently do some opposition research on Judge Travis Kitchens. Mr. Freyer did not have a work related reason to take off from his job to go spend hours in the District Clerk's office reviewing cases he is not a part of so we can only assume he is trying to dig up dirt on the good Judge. Eyewitnesses have reported to seeing him there and at other functions during the day in not only Polk County but Trinity County and Montgomery County as well on work days. Either way, Mr. Freyer put down on his time sheet that he had worked a full day on August 4th.
We will watch this develop in the coming months and do our best to always be your source for truth and justice.
8/20/2025 COUNTY LOOPS OVER VIDEO EVIDENCE AFTER IT'S REQUESTED
A simple attempt to match comings and goings with payroll records has been thwarted right out of the gate with good old fashioned, "I.T."
Surveillance footage of the exterior doors of an area courthouse was legally requested in writing two hours BEFORE the work week surveillance period requested would end at four o'clock. The County knew. Records prove the email was in posession of the guardian of records, the county Sheriff and official PIA portal for the county in short order. The Sheriff is over security. The PIA portal can be required.
POLK COUNTY PILLAR PASSES
Social media and online postings show Ernie L. McClendon passed recently. A Polk County pillar of the community by all standards, he was never the less, the greatest obstacle to The Sentinel Alert /Steve Watson when it came to freedom of speech and freedom of the press and my personal freedom.
Then I brought out the mustard seed. The rest is old news. As for any man who is at the point that he can only look up, I Hope the best.

LIV PD SEEKS OAG OPINION
Morphing from original concern for juvenile to withold records, the actual letter to the OAG by LIV PD cites interference with investigation, detection or prosecution as the reason they want to withold the records requested including probable cause documents.
"Probable cause documents are public record 101." I told the clerk, "if you don't have probable cause documents, you have a no probable cause arrest and that will be a problem." I added. "The day you can arrest a grown man and not give probable cause for his arrest hasn't gotten here yet."

LIV P.D. CRIMINALIZES SELF DEFENSE
The day you can catch a burglar coming out of your house with stolen goods including cash and go to jail for busting him in the nose to retrieve your and your son's STOLEN property has ARRIVED IN POLK CO!
Just ask the LIV PD. All you need added to the mix in Polk County it seems, is a vindictive beach of an ex wife willing to call the law because her burglar baby 17 years old son got a bloody nose and split lip for his efforts.
All the statutes I've read on self defense mention defense of person and property.
I remember the day my oldest son turned 17. He had played nose guard on the champion team and got a power lifting state medal. He turned and said, "I'm seventeen now dad." I don't have to be in at midnight any more. "Because Legally, you can't make me," he added matter of factly.
I took a breath and began nodding my head slightly then agreed, "You're right son, I can't make you be in at midnight any more." Stephen grinned broadly and even squared his shoulders some. Then I added, "But you are Seventeen now son so When you do get here, I don't have to let you in."
3/23/2025 UPDATE
STILL NO ARREST HERE
Sources indicate no paperwork has been sent to the DA's office by the S.O. as of last week.
I find it ironic that in the same week, Sam's buddy Sparta is seeking and order of expunction of the public records of his criminal domestic violence conduct.
1/5/2025 SAN JACINTO CO
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE TAKES BACK SEAT
Four days after the fervent oprayer for wisdom and guidance from God on "every Situation", Sam Houston's
sheriff dept decides violence committed on a woman by a man male is not important or worthy of the time to even do the paperwork. "If we arrest anyone, we will arrest you for being the aggressor", the female victim was warned by Sam's deputy Brooks after him speaking to
the abuser and his father.
In Texas, the officer does have the discretion whether to arrest or not, unlike many states that have a mandatory arrest policy when evidence of an assault is present.
That is bad enough and even to be expected when Sheriff's long time employee and prayer buddy,pictured above with hat in hand has been arrested multiple times himself for physically abusing women. Sparta was 'un arrested' once before the booking paperwork ink was dry and He has even been 'not arrested' at all after his most recent documented incident of abusing a woman in front of witnesses, both overlookingswere at the hand of DA Bret Ligon's office in Mont Co. Sam just likes to threaten to take away her kids if an attractive young mother won't meet up with him one on one.
As appalling as these misogynist ass holes are, the fact that a female top law enforcement person in position in SJC to file charges has confirmed she has all of the evidence, She never bothered to call back and say she got it as requested. Instead, she had to be tracked down to confirm it thus the 'back seat' headline. The same father and son who claimed the victim was the aggressor also said she was on meth. The victim submitted to a drug test for the lady lawman proving they lied about that. Still nothing. It has been over two weeks since the injuries. The victim went to the hospital the next day because of those cuts, scrapes and bruises. These two photos of her injuries are not but a small portion of the evidence.

SHERIFF APPEALS TO BIKERS AND DRUNKS FOR FUNDS
In a repeat of Sheriff Sam Houston's campaign strategy, he is holding a fund raiser at The Shifters Roadhouse biker bar just north of Coldspring according to a FB post.
It was about a year ago that a local man was killed when exiting the Shifters Roadhouse parking lot on his motorcycle after drinking and pulling right out in front of an oncoming vehicle. The FB post extols the alleged virtues of Sam Houston winning a court battle that never was. The case was thrown out without the first bit of evidence ever being presented in open court by a corrupt, "the fix is in" judge. In so doing, rampant election violations of law were ignored in San Jacinto County. CHAMBERS COUNTY takes a dim view of election fraud and did something about it. SJC, not so much.

1/5/2025 POLK CO S.O.UNDERMINES, STAND YOUR GROUND, CASTLE DOCTRINE AND THE TEXAS AFTER DARK LAWS. Steadfast refusal to enforce trespass and stalking laws and make an arrest even with probable cause evidence shows the true colors of much of the 'upper' S.O. There are exceptions that want to do the right thing but it appears, "social justice" management is getting in the way. If anyone ever earned the right to protect himself and his little piece of his Polk Co pie, it is the Silver Star veteran at left. When the word of a two time loser felon excon admitted gang member's word means more than this marine's, something is out of whack. Arrendondo approached the Marine and two Arrendondo compadres got out and stood off a little ways. You take a man with war injuries including being blown up by an IED and shot or taken shrapnel twice, he is not going to take a blow to his head based on old injuries. It turned out to be a bad mix for Arrendondo and his mistaken notion he could threaten people with no consequences.
San Jacinto County faces some of the same when the Dodge family and friends keep trying to retaliate against one of our former residents who stood his ground, protected his home and killed a man who had no gun.
When John Wayne Dodge showed up in SJC with two grown men besides himself threatening and inflicting harm, he got him self killed by another man standing his ground who did have a gun. A short set of stupid actions put John Wayne Dodge in the grave and John Arrendondo in the hospital with serious injuries. Dodge went past no trespass signs on private property and as a group, the men began assaulting the property owner. Not only a felony crime, a three against one punk odds. The main aggressor was Michael Dodge and he was the shooter's target but a last violent blow knocking the man down deflected his aim, The shotmissedMichael and killed his dad instead.
According to the probable cause narrative based on store video and the marine, Arrendondo pulled into the parking lot where he was fueling his truck then Arrendondo got out to confront the Marine.
John Arrendondo is still alive but but I am sure he is wishing he hadn't threatened the wrong man. First comes the family and friends FB trashing the shooter with lies. Then the drivebys and attempts to intimidate. Both cases the same.
Tomorrow is the 17th anniversary of John Wayne Dodge's death and the Dodge family is still retaliating. Dodge's sister, Jennifer Jones has been the most prolific with the social media war of words. Slinging false accusations, total lies and never proof.
From accusing our sheriff of murder and using her brother's tragic death for politics wasn't disgusting enough, Jennifer has also accused the man who shot her brother of killing his own wife. Then she goes political and continued attacking our sheriff for not arresting him on her say so. Then his wife and her dogs were found. Feeling stupid yet Jennifer?
Fairly near the time of this incident in 2008, a law was passed that if you were involved in the commission of a felony crime and someone died, any participant could be charged with murder even if they did not pull the trigger.
Our grand jury nullified that law in San Jacinto county. If Michael Dodge had not been committing a felony assault crime, the shooting would not have taken place.
Sheriff Capers did arrest Michael Dodge and turn the case over to the DA. SJC DA's office did charge him and present the case to the Grand Jury.
Although I agree with the premise of the law that if three hoodlums rob a liquor store and one beats the owner to death or shoots him, all are quilty, I understand the Grand Jury decision and it makes me thankful we have the system we have. It involved family and neighbors and an argument out of hand. One man was dead. Why compound the suffering in our community.? After all, Michael did not pull the trigger on his own father. bBut he did cause it to be pulled. Had he suffered enough with the death of his father? Grand jury moved on past the bad time and upheld the rights of a free people to protect and defend themselves and theirs along with giving the criminal who was doing the assaulting, a second chance.

FIRSTS ON THE FIRST
Today's swearing in ceremony will be held in the SJC County Courthouse for all of our local elections.Judge Faulkner will be conducting the ceremonies at 10 AM. Nothing new there. What is new are several offices in SJC being held by women. For the first time, we will have a female Constable. In Pct 1, Rae Phillips was elected. a female commissioner in Pct 3 with the election of Ms. Crystal Dominy. A female State Representative, Janice Holt will represent us in Austin . Congratulationss ladies.
FBI IGNORES CRIMINAL ACTIVITY . . . . . WHY?
Could it be because the patent on the process of stealing elections comes from the federal level and to expose the illegal activity of the recent SJC sheriff race would draw attention to D.C.?
Think about it. Step one. Allow a bunch of illegal voters to register to vote.
Step Two. Allow a bunch of illegal voters to vote.
Step Three. Illegally manipulate the results of the election
Step four. Appoint a 'compliant' 'the fix is in' visiting Judge.
Step Five. Fail to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate
Step Six. Ignore that the prosecutor with jurisdiction's investigator is one of the criminal voters and that he 'fails' to uncover the crimes.

1/3/2025 UPDATE AGAIN
A recent conversation with SJC Treasurer, Dee Dee Baily took the form of a lawn mowing if my butt was grass. Ms. Baily started with being miffed that my website had her name on it twice and I had not called her. She further stated that she had never referred the requestors to the DA and that, "I gave them everything I had" as far as records of payments to the county by Waggin Tails.
My first step was to go back to my original source, the requestor, and tell them what she chewed on me about. He chuckled and said, yes she did give us everything she had. . . . . . NOTHING. I did assure the treasurer that in the interest of truth, I would submit an open records request for their original open records request and all the documents she provided them and then make any correction that was warranted based on what I could document. That request has been submitted.

Sam Houston, it appears, will be sworn in January 1st as SJC Sheriff. "If he does hire Stan Jolly as chief deputy, SJC will have a pretty good Department", one long time contemporary of Jolly's stated, "as long as Sam stays in his lanepoliticking kissing babies and lets Stan run the department"

SJC DA DOES NOT BLOCK RECORDS
Two local citizens zealous of accountability and transparency in our local government did have opportunity to visit with SJC DA, Todd Dillon yesterday. One of the citizens had requested open records from both the SJC Treasurer and Auditor egarding the financial records proving Sam Houston's "Waggin Tails" dawg non profit is submitting the fees and monies due to the county from the county's animal control program to the county as required by law. Both women deferred to DA Todd Dillon as the one who would allow the records to be provided but neither woman has made any records available.
DA Dillion did assure the two citizens that he was not going to block them and even stated, "You will get the records", according to the men. "They are just having trouble finding them." Dillon added to explain the past legal limit delay in providing the requested records.

SJC CHIEF DEPUTY STAN JOLLY IN THE WINGS?
Consistant but unofficial sources state that a significant number of the deputies and jailers that work for SJC Sheriff, Greg Capers are not going to stay on with Sam Houston at the helm.
It has been circulated that Sam Houston is going to hire aman named, Jolly to be his chief deputy. If he is the Jolly that worked in Humble for years, that Officer Jolly has a good reputation as an able and fair man.
AFTER SEEKING COUNSEL, The Sentinel will provide the original Power Point file to any who arrange to obtain it from us but will not publish the video until more redaction takes place to avoid a "DOXing" law suit.
The file 0proves that hundreds of people were allowed and even encouraged to vote illegally. The most agregious were the ones allowed to register AND VOTE the day of the election.
Sam Houston's election is the biggest scam imposed on the People of East Texas in years. The fix was in from the get go on the lawsuit from the judge that was appointed to the special prosecutor who wasn't. they know but NO ONE from FBI on down seems to give piece of pig poop about it.
Oh Well. it is what it is. The Sentinel hereby issues the 1st Annual, "MAKIN BACON' Award to this whole election mess. What an indictment of the criminal so called "justice" system. , More like "Just Us" as one ardent advocate often stated.
The Sentinel, yours truely takes full credit for the concept of the Makin Bacon Award photo but several contributed to the overall product. First I found the pig picture on a hag farmer website. Then another found the cowboy hatand human ears on a Woody Wallace ad or FB publication that fit the hawg perfetly. After sharing that photo with another photography expert, he found and imported the mirror shades to complete the conceptional idea. We haven't confirmed but suspect the mirror shades were snipped right out of the, "Cool Hand Luke" movie.

ARRENDONDO FAMILY HARASSES MARINE
Several complaints of intentional confrontation and harassment by members of the John Arrendondo family against Phillip McCulloch Jr have been made to the Polk Co S.O. with not much response according to sources close to the event. Trespassing up to and including allegations of killing livestock on the McCulloch property along with intentional efforts to run McCulloch off the road have been reported to the S.O. and relayed to The Sentinel. Stalking of McCulloch by the Arrendondo family is being reported. The back story in on the POLK COUNTY page.

11/18/2024 MONTGOMERY CO
BRET LIGON IGNORES ABUSED WOMEN
Multiple cases of women being physically and mentally abused of late have seemingly gotten right past Mont Co DA, Bret Ligon, his staff. and the Mont Co Sheriff's dept. We have written about the assault Sam Houston's former captain Sparta committed a few weeks ago at the Splendora mudding event. Sources say Sam showed up on the scene. Sparta assaulted the woman in front of several reliable witnesses resulting in bruising and other injuries to her body. The Sentinel has interviewed one eye witness and the victim of that assault. Not only has no arrest been made, no charges have been filed and NO ONE from the Mont Co S.O. or the D.A's office has reached out to interviewthe victim since the assault took place.
Sparta assaulted the woman and then ran off fleeing the scene like the little chicken sh#t he is.
Our investigation has revealed that Sparta, since he has suffered no repercussions from the assault, has continued to harass and even stalk the most recent victim of his mental illness. And this is the guy Sam Houston wants to bring in to the SJC S.O.
The public record proves Sparta has assaulted at least five women. That is disturbing but the biggest red flag was when our investigation revealed that Sparta had removed the inside door knob on the camper trailer he had taken to the mudding event and kept it in his pocket. At one point, the victim found herself locked in the trailer with no way out until Sparta decided to let her out. Montgomery county D.A. would know this if they bothered to investigate the incident.
Wayne Dolcifino has joined in the effort to bring the chronic problems of the Mont Co DA to the forefront using his platform HERE.
The last time Sparta was arrested in Mont Co was for assaulting his then wife threatening her, her teenager with a gun then putting the gun to his own head according to the Probable Cause documents we obtained. The booking report from that incident show the S.O. did their investigation, arrested and booked Sparta into the Mont Co jail. Then the ADA from Bret Ligon's office fell all over himself to get to the jail and DISMISS Sparta's charges before the booking report ink was dry. That ADA attributed the dropped charges to, "Terms Met".
As bad as this systemic corruption is and the detrimental effect on the abused women, this next clip is one of the most troubling I have seen and heard. In it, Mont Co LEO stops a woman whose bike rack on the back of her car is making it difficult to read the license plate. There is a specific excepption in the obscured license plate statute for bike racks that are installed in a normal fashion yet this cop makes a no probable cause stop. That is troubling but the most troubling aspect is when the tyrant cop calls DA Bret Ligon's office and his ADA informs the cop that the bike rack is legal but offers to file the case anyway, "if you want to "bite off that fight". The entire video is HERE and is worth listening to but the DA comment is at the 13 minute mark. It is discouraging that the cop is no better trained than that but Bret Ligon's office being willing to file bogus charges that they know are bogus speaks volumes to the depth of Ligon's corruption. His corruption has been chronic as proven by prior cases The Sentinel has illustrated of no probable cause stops. We still have that evidence too if Ligon wants to dispute our contention.
We thank a reliable Sentinel content contributor for finding the video featured here.

PUBLIC RECORDS PROVE CRIMES
Once the Election Contest suit was dismissed by Judge McCaig, the evidence collected in the investigation was obtained via open records request. The evidence proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that several hundreds of illegal voters were registered and illegal votes cast in the primary race for SJC Sheriff. Illegal votes that far exceed the 107 vote margin of difference between the two candidates.
It has become clear why the Election Administrator and her staff resigned suddenly and retained a criminal defense attorney immediatly.
A recent NEWS STORY many have seen of the election judge in Minnosota or some yankee state being arrested and charged with felony crimes for allowing unregistered voters to cast their ballots bring the local issue to the forefront.
SJC ELECTION INVESTIGATION WIDENS AND NARROWS
A fairly broad spectrum of evidence is leading to a narrow conclusion or two.
Just like a prism divides white light into separate colors, scrutiny has spread the evidence into distinct categories.
One of the categories appears to be the, "right under your nose" category.
STATE REP ELECT PRE STARTS TENURE WITH CRIME
Long documented information from the Holt camp that Holt, along with the ten thousand dollar bribe paid to Wright to backstab the incumbant, she promised Wright the Chief Of Staff position in her office if she was elected. Hmmmmmmm
Judge McCaig said in his opening remarks at the initial hearing, "I have read the origitnal petitions. I've read the answers. I've read the motion for summary judgement and I've read the response to it. so whnever you begin your arguement, use that as kind of a basis. I know you are going to want to lay some foundation which is fine, I'll give you every opportunity that you need to do that with that said, let's get on with it."
The EXACT language of paragraph III of the original petition covered venue and JURISDICTION and said this:
Now when it is embarassing what happened and no one in power seems to want to let the evidence get to court. Now he lacks jurisdiction?
jurisdiction and venue are elementary my dear watson
MESSAGE FROM SJC SHERIFF, GREG CAPERS
UPDATE 10/16/2024
RANGERS INVESTIGATE
Calls placed to Onalaska PD Chief, Byron Dunaway have gone unanswered or returned. Other sources indicate that the SRO has been placed on Administrative Leave as is normal under these type circumstances. We have been able to confirm that the Texas Rangers are conducting an investigation and that the area in which the weapon was discharged is normally under video and audio recording. We know already that the DA's office will be reluctant to discuss the case but we made a call to them anyway.
One LEO source indicates the case will be referred to the Grand Jury under Penal Code 22.041 (b) A person commits an offense if the person, having custody, care, or control of a child, elderly individual, or disabled individual, intentionally abandons the child or individual in any place under circumstances that expose the child or individual to an unreasonable risk of harm.
According to records, The City of Onalaska issued a Glock 40 to the SRO, a gun with NO positive lock SAFETY mechinism.
No one has even mentioned charging the student, Ms. (Olgletree) Tompkins under the Penal Code 38.14 Sec. 38.14. TAKING OR ATTEMPTING TO TAKE WEAPON FROM PEACE OFFICER
That crime is a 3rd degree felony.
We did reach out to the Onalaka school Supt and found out the area is under audio and video cameras. We have not been able to confirm if the Rangers obtained that evidence yet but presume they did.
ONALASKA
STUDENT GRABS SCHOOL COP'S GUN
An Onalaska school student grabbed at a School Resource Officer's (SRO) gun causing a 'negligent discharge' of his weapon during an after hours school function on school grounds. The narrative on facebook and other sources indicates she had challenged the officer about grabbing his gun to which he replied, "you can't, it is locked into the holster" referencing the, 'snap in' function of the hard plastic style holster. According to sources, she grabbed at the weapon and it was his struggle to prevent it that caused the discharge.
Critics claim he should not have been talking to the student at all. The student is from an influential family so lets see where this goes. The officer has never had a complaint made against him to The Sentinel.

SPARTA ASSAULTS FEMALE AGAIN per Victim and Witness
True to form, Sparta boys always assault females from age 7 to 37. Of the five arrests for violence just against Peter Sparta, all are females. Never was a Willy nor a Sam. He is following the lead of his mentor, Sam Houston to prey on women. Follow the link on Sam's name to read the series of threatening text messages he sent a young female if she didn't meet him one on one. SamHouston threatened her with losing her kids if she didn't meet him.
Several LEO's express concern that Sparta needs some anger management treatment before he really goes off the deep end. Sparta claims on FB he has never been convicted but a truer statement is that the convictions are over ten years old and fell off of his record. Sam Houston was fully aware of Sparta's arrest records but kept him on anyway.
According to Mont Co jail records, Sparta has not been in their jail since this incident happened. In prior arrests, Sparta went to distant counties to turn himself in and arrange bond so there are no local records. We don't know if he has been arrested or even if he will be arrested. We redacted the victim last name and witness first name to protect their identity. The We will follow up to see if there is a warrant issued. The report we obtained shows that five officers responded to the call for, "Assault in Progress". Lets see if Sam Houston can cover for Sparta again.
Sorry so brief yesterday. cable internet was down all day and the headline story was done just with a smart phone. this is a file photo of Sheriff Capers being sworn in.

NEW POLICE CHIEF NAMED
Byron Dunaway, a former PCSO deputy has been hired as the police chief for the City of Onalaska and has now been on the job for two days. Former Chief, Jessica Stanton has taken a job with the Polk County Sheriff's Office. In an interview, she touted, "Politics" as the reason for her departure when asked by an investigative journalist but friends claim on FB that it was just for, "a better opportunity".
Our last investigation by open records request into Byron Dunaway showed no complaints or reprimands in his file before the one The Sentinel submitted in writing to sheriff Ken Hammack. I just have to wonder if that one made it into his file. Dunaway and I had a run in over here in SJC while he was in uniform and a marked patrol vehicle for Polk Co. S.O. when he tried to be a bully me and push his weight around in my county. Dunaway found out quick that The Sentinel pushes back. We have not had anymore complaints since then.
7/18/2024 ANGELINA COUNTY
STUA TAKES OUT DA, AIMS FOR JUDGES
Greetings to the Judges of Angelina County,
On October 19, 2018, I sent an email to multiple Judges of Angelina County notifying them I was going to sue them. A copy of that email is contained in the attachments. The name of the file is “2019-10-28 Filed No. 2019-0291 Defendant's Amended Motion for Recusal of Trial Judges .pdf.” See pages 4-5. I was arrested for false charges for a Facebook live video that I produced and broadcasted on December 6, 2018. I believe the arrest was the corroborative effort and conspiracy involving Doug Conn, Judge Ball, Judge Inselmann, Joe Martin, and Judge White. While I don’t directly accuse Judge Cassels or Janet Cassels in the conspiracy, their actions over the years contributed to the arrest. Both of them sought to demonize me for requesting public information. They couldn’t go within 1000 feet of the aforementioned Judges without telling them how bad I was and that I would harm them as well. They set the stage for the events that happen regarding the false arrest at a minimum.
In today’s previous email, I sent a notice of intent to sue. I am anticipating false charges as before. Be well advised anyone that involves themselves in a conspiracy to falsely arrest me will see a different result than the last time. I am well prepared and will make sure the property authorities are notified or others will on my behalf.
VOTER FRAUD IS REAL Gov Abbott

The total number of proveable fraudulent votes cast in SJC has increased to a number north of 400 votes. Sam Houston has failed to answer the petition for a contested election by the time prescribed by law. Reliable sources state the more than one state agency is investigating. Manifold voters voted in two counties. At a minimum, the fraud effects Liberty and Montgomery County also. The legal action is technically not against Sam Houston but rather the administration of the election.
It is unlikely the entire SJC election would be overturned if no other candidates join the suit. It would only be the sheriff race. All indicators are that the process is on the fast track to get the initial ruling so the matter can move forward. We will keep an eye on the 411th docket for a posting.

CRIMINALS TRANSFORM AMERICA
The once proud Constitutional Republic known as the United States of America has been 'fundamentally transformed" by the enemies of this nation, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Juan Merchan, Alvin Bragg Merick Garland and others. Their transformation includes our nations new flag which I fly here upside down in distress.

DISMISSED
Interference with public duty charges were dismissed against Brandon White, "In the interest of Justice" according to documents filed in Polk County. ADA Pierce made the motion and the court granted it helping rid the halls of justice of one more 'stinker' that Lee Hon 'let' on his way out the door.
Lee treated Polk Co Kind of like a soccer mom that has all the door and window locks at her mini van finger tips and some bad gas. Kids don't mind. . the process (ride) is the punishment.
LIBERTY 3/18/2024
Carl Wills murder is officially swept under the rug by the Liberty County DA. Despite evidence submitted months ago proving that the white woman who picked Carl up the day he was murdered is identified by a witbness as the daughter of former Polk Co ADA, Joe Martin and later Angelina County DA,nothing seems to have progressed. Only the mother has been contacted by an investigator. The second witness that identified Martin's daughter has as of yet, MONTHS LATER, not even been contacted. How about getting her DNA Ms Bergman and see if it matches the 'white girl' DNA that was found under Carl's finger nails? Seems logical to me. According to Bloo News, you are 'tough on crime' unless it is the family of a fellow DA.
EVERYTHING IS BETTER WITH BLUE BONNET ON IT
Multiple communications questioning the timing of the recent arrest of an officer seem to be vindicated now that bloo bonnet published. Combining this ad with the story is like confessing to boot licker journalism. Now I am sure that they call each other, "media partners" but we see plenty of what that really means in the main stream media.
A non partnered journalist would be asking, "what do you have now that you haven't already had for a year? My sources indicate that it was a pretty cut and dried investigation and no action was taken then. Why now? Oh that's right, so your media partner could run your ad.Prosecuting cops instead of criminals seems to be all the rage these days.

ALL HAT NO CATTLE HON/COLEMAN LOSES
TEXAS SUPREME COURT SMACKS DOWN
Tommy Coleman lost his bid to punish the Polk Co Enterprise for a story they published after The Sentinel had published the information. The suit was filed to silence the Polk County Enterprise. That effort was effective on them to the point they even cut the reporter loose for her accurate, honest and true reporting. Publisher Bowed down to pressure.
A win for journalism no doubt. Winner journalists don't bow.

FEDERAL LAWSUIT FILED
LPD Officer, Chris Simmons and his ignorance of Texas Law has earned the City of Livingston a federal lawsuit.
Lee Hon's retaliatory case against Brandon White has already cost Polk County untold thousands of dollars in costs associated with multiple hearings. Hon's charging instruments and grand jury presentation was based on a falsified sworn affidavit. When attorney Seth Evans reclaimed the phones illegally seized and held by LPD, they contained exculpatory evidence proving the lying affidavit by a Livingston PD officer.
After the recent felony assault on peace officer charges brought by Hon against Amberly Lambert (did I mention she is Brandon White's 'baby momma' of his oldest two kids?) only proved OPD officer, Tammy Heeth lied on a sworn affidavit and under oath, She testified it was Hon who told her to "go for the highest charge".
I was looking for a common denominator. Who is training these public servants to lie on sworn statements? It didn't take long to figure that one out.
Having followed the case that resulted in the recent resignation of Angelina County DA, Janet Casels for years, I have proof she too relied on a falsified sworn affidavit to prosecute a man when she already had video proof that the crime did not happen.
Casel's "whaa whah whah letter credits the oppressed man who bit back as the reason she was throwing in the towel.
As a muckraker journalist with a degree in financials who had requested records that would prove Casels was bilking the hospital district, her knee jerk reaction was to not answer the request but rather put the man in jail. She relied on a lying sworn affidavit by none other than Doug Conn who runs the Angelina Community College law enforcement academy. It wasn't a little lie. Conn signed a sworn statement that the victim, David Stua took out his junk and wagged it at a minor. So saturated with the, "who they gonna believe, me or you" mantra, Casels went full speed ahead even though the reporter was live streaming to FB at the time.
Doug "Con man" Conn was sitting at his desk watching the event through a picture window and the live stream on FB but still chose to lie on the sworn affidavit.
At one point Casels had stacked nearly a dozen heinous sex crimes against kid charges on Stua trying to grind him down. A year in solitary in the Angelina County Jail followed.
The Sentinel began to follow the case when unconstitutional bond conditions were imposed. We initially called for Casels to recuse herself. She didn't. We finally out right called for her resignation. She ignored. Ignore is the root of ignorance.
The irony was Casels calling efforts to remove her for misconduct, "Political" illustrating the, "above the law" mentality of so many.
Too answer my own question, it is Doug Con man Conn who is teaching the young trainees wrong ways. We need, not only to remove him but also some legislation that perjury on sworn affidavits is ground to lose your TCOLE certification. If not, where does it end?
TEXAS GOV TAKES PAYOFF, SIDES WITH CHINA
The largest PAC donation in Texas history went to abbott Six Million is how much it took for him to side with the Tik Tok owner over the public schools in rural east Texas.
So not only has Abbott sold out us common folks that depend on public schools and public school transportation, Abbott has been shipping terror cells from our known enemies all over the US, planting them in major US cities and calling it "border security"
Here is a Question rural east Texas voters. When was the last time you had a chance to vote someone on or off of a private school board of directors? Won't Abbott's 'voucher' plans decimate public school funding? It doesn't stop there. The Dark Money has infiltrated San Jacinto County politics by matter of public record. Even our own duly elected republican party chairman, Dwayne Wright has taken a payoff to support school vouchers and oppose our duly elected State Rep in favor of the Dark Money candidate Holt. We have the proof documents and will post them below. We can call this whole underhanded political funding the, Tik Tok Trickle Down Theory put into practice. I call for your resignation Dwayne. But then I called for Steve 'No Draw' McGraw's resignation BEFORE Robb Elementary attack and he didn't have enough integrity to resign for his"do nothing' attack on our public schools. Will you, Dwayne for your proactive attack on our public schools?
PARTY CHAIR PROVES NEXUS PERPLEX US
Since Wright had the will to admit he is Nexus Strategies (in a round about way) I will remove the address associated with a campaign finance payment per his text message. When his 'threat to sue' was ignored, he changed it to a respectful request.
My final note on the matter Dwayne is this. I only posted your address to prove Nexus was you. That way, the next person that wants to pay you off knows where to mail the check.
This is one of Holt's campaign finance reports proving SJC Republican Party Chair Wright took 10K from one candidate (Holt) and helped produce lying campaign ads against the incumbent HD 18 Representative, Ernest Bailes Jr. Talk about talking out of both sides of your mouth Dwayne. So much for the neutrality clause in the SJC Republican Party Policy and By Laws.
Oh that is right. No one I can find has a copy of that document. Still looking for one just to see what it says. Can I open record request one be emailed to me?
Long time child advocate, Rosemary Covalt who did for H.I.S.D. what the legendary, Marvin Zindler did for TDC many years ago was so disappointed that Gov Abbot endorsed the Dark Money candidate, Holt over the staunch defender of our public schools system, Ernest Bailes. "Why would you (/gov Abbott) want to tear down something we have all worked so hard to build?" Covalt asked.
Abbotts T.E.A. seems determined to wrest the local control of public schools away from local voters one way or another. Either decimate the funding source with vouchers or just flat change the values of X and Y in their arbitrary grading formulas till they "fail" and take it over. Then they can appoint their own board like they did in Houston and Shepherd. Bring in their own 'boss'.

JP HEARING AT COURTHOUSE
A Grassroots level hearing has, "gotten some traction" according to one criminal justice worker in San Jacinto County. A hearing to resolve the dispute over personal property seized by the corrupt pct 3 constable has been moved from the JP office to the San Jacinto County courthouse dockett for February 6th. The Honorable JP RandyEllisor wil conduct the hearing. In an interview in one of three conversations with Peter Sparta yesterday, he shared that Sam Houston had called and told him he (Sparta) was the arresting officer and would have to testify.
Other documents received at the Sentinel Offices shows a request for subpoena for the SJC deputies who were at the scene. The complainant was able to produce photographic evidence of a beautiful hand crafted muzzle loading black powder flint lock rifle that any prudent owner would keep in a safe.

CORRUPT CONSTABLE COVERS CORRUPT COP
Records recently received at The Sentinel offices may be 25 years old but still reflect the character of the person they pertain to and the constable who keeps on covering for him. Granted a deferred adjudication is not a conviction and thus the arrest could not prevent Sparta from obtaining his TCOLE but they do serve as proof he was arrested and charged. Felony Robbery and Misdomeaner Theft are the two crimes recorded in the public record. In case Sparta starts claiming 'Photoshop' again, we included the case numbers and other pertinenent info. Not only does this document lend more credibility to the property owners claim that several guns seized by the Corrupt constable and his sidekick were not listed, It also makes me wonder if allegations by a woman some years ago that Sparta took 800 dollars out of her purse during a stop may be true. No proof was found and no charges were filed but the allegations were made in writing to the S.O. "Yeah they tried to pin that on me but never did", Sparta explained when we discussed those allegations.
This article is not really about Sparta. It is about Sam Houston's hiring practices. All of the info below was available to him as constable. How does the ole saying go? "Birds of a Feather"
