But let's get this thread back on track talking about Harris County. I have several friends who used to work at the DAs office there. Plus have kids and grandkids in Harris County.

So I like to keep up with how things are going in Houston so I am not in the dark when the former Harris County prosecutors start talking about the happenings there.

Interestingly, at the same wedding where I ran into my old FBI friend, I met the attorney who is suing HPD and the city of Houston on the criminal incident where HPD Det. Goins (I think that's his name) falsified an affidavit for a search warrant and the couple living in the house that was raided were shot and killed by HPD. And this attorney's dad was a former HPD homicide detective.

Tell him he is doing God's work on that case and to go scorched earth and make sure Acevedo gets a cell with Sly.

Considering the number of years Goins was running hos corruption, I'm quite doubtful anything can be put on Acevedo and Sly.

He told me he really struggled with taking that case. His dad has passed away so he talked to some of his dad's cohorts about suing HPD. His dad's friends told him his dad would certainly be proud of him for taking this case on.

I, too, hope he hits a home run in that case. And he should.

Let's get this thread back on crack.

Does anyone have a body count for this year? Will we win the World Series of murder rates?


Quote:
HOUSTON A man was shot and killed while hanging out in an apartment complex parking lot in southwest Houston, according to police.
It happened just before 3 a.m. on Braeburn Glen Boulevard which is near Bissonnet Street and South Gessner Road intersection.
Police said a group of men were drinking in the parking lot of the Falls of Braeburn Apartments. Eventually, an argument broke out, which led to someone pulling out a gun and opening fire.

No clue what the body count is. Was a relatively quiet weekend til two black kids tried to rob someone at a gas station and one got GOT.

The poor channel 13 useful idiots had to parrot a "human interest" story about an abortion clinic shutting down all morning.

I think it's absolutely amazing that there's no body count anywhere to be found. Interesting, isn't it?

A lot of police forces nationwide are slow playing crime stats or just not putting them out at all. Its why people can still act like murder rates and crime isn't spiking.

3:30 PM on a Sunday in a dense part of town?? Tango Blast is getting brazen. Hopefully they get got or booked outside of a Black Girl Tragic jurisdiction so they aren't immediately turned loose on a PR bond.

I really hope this is sarcasm. If it's not, it seems you don't understand what the area used to be.

I mean. That's like saying someone doesn't understand what the Heights used to be. Or that many suburbs used to be rice fields. Or the Woodlands used to be woods.

It really doesn't matter.

Yours was, was digging tunnels? What about the asshat moving to fulshear in a gated and guarded community because he's afraid to leave his house?

Forgive us for not being able to interpret a joke from the normal extreme hyperbole of this thread….

That guy is going to hate it when the guard at the gatehouse can't stop the floodwaters from filling up his house built in a former rice field.

Are you really stupid enough to believe that there weren't Muslims crossing illegally before Biden became President? The problem started long before him.
Geez, embarrassed for you and that little pea brain of yours.

I'm a retired elected DA. I spent my last few years of work assigned to DPS mainly helping rural LE along the border. But in 2017, when San Antonio hosted the Men's Final Four, I attended a briefing about security at the Alamodome for the Final Four. That was the first time I had ever heard of Fentanyl. A concern then was that terrorists could spread it through an enclosed facility (Alamodome) and kill just about everyone inside. I shockingly said "You are talking about a weapon of mass destruction!" An FBI agent who was present answered "That is exactly what we are talking about."
So this has been on LE's radar for several years.

And Biden's Border "security" is making this threat more real. I retired March 2021. On one of my last days I asked an ICE agent if they ever caught Muslims ever crossing the Rio Grande illegally. He said it happens almost every day.


I'm not saying this didn't happen, but I am saying it is totally ludicrous. It would be exceptionally difficult to weaponize fentanyl to kill even a few people - much less nearly everyone - in a stadium of 20,000 people.
Look up Carfentanil...that is probably what they were concerned about. I remember reading about it a few years ago, and it's potential for terror attacks.

How else they going to spread it via the air?
How are you going to spread a super fine residue through the air? In an indoor stadium, you could just drop a lb of it over the railing of the nose bleeds and kill several dozen people I'd imagine. If you have a more sophisticated way of spreading it, probably a lot more. Just breathing in or coming into contact with tiny amounts has resulted in OD's. Saw one video of a cop who collapsed from OD in a traffic stop after coming in close contact with a small amt...luckily his partner had the narcan on him.

More power to you, but I can't imagine raising a family in that immediate area...at least not small kiddos. Narrow streets, crazy drivers, drunks everywhere, and much higher crime than many more family friendly neighborhoods.

Don't get me wrong, we're probably moving within the next few years to get into a single family home vs our townhome and more space.

But to counter your point, walking distance to memorial park and buffalo bayou (and countless smaller parks), arboretum, easy access to the zoo, museums, etc. Good daycares, our zoned elementary school is pretty good also (memorial).
