if the Chronicle decided to run a crime blotter, listing every arrest and reported crime (theft, robbery, car break ins, murder, criminal mischief, etc), how many pages and column inches would the print version run, even if it was just HPD?


Thicker than a 1984 phone book

This is absolutely heartbreaking. That little girl must have been so terrified in her final moments.

Did we discuss this one? The assault occurred in October 2022 where the poor little girl's mother died at the hospital and the 2-year old baby girl's remains were apparently recovered yesterday after she had been missing since then.

Absolutely heartbreaking. These stories of children being harmed make me physically ill and the rage at these mother****ers who harm them is immeasurable.

Probably 1.5-2 pages. well, 1990 pages. Probably double that now. Keep in mind it would be Astros box score type.

Echos of Black Girl Maaaaaaggiiiiiccc. New judge finally slaps a bigun on him. He'll probably still get out in exchange for a half-used Wal Mart gift card, a pan of his abuela's pork tamales and a 2007 Ford Taurus.

In this case, the judge had an R next to her name. It seems its not as much a partisan issue as it is a crowding issue

Since we can't count on the courts or the justice system, we can hope that street justice catches up with him. *fingerscrossed

Houston, Iraq, or Chicago?
Which place would you feel the most unsafe?

Reading through this thread is depressing. It makes me feel sorry for people that have to live in the Houston area.

Maybe if the judges hadn't taken 2 full years off and were forced to work more than a few hours a day, they could start clearing some of the backlog and crowding issues.

Harris County judges are more worried about the feelings/rights of the criminals, instead of the victims.

They are also worried about the 8th Amendment. Judges have been taking into account a criminal's and their family's ability to pay. I dont know what the proper balance is. If you set bail too high, you will get more people stuck in jail for longer simply because they dont have the means to bond out and then you dont have room for the most violent offenders. However, this guy who broke a woman's back would qualify as a violent offender to me and shouldnt be back on the streets waiting for a court date but I dont have the exposure to where his violence compares to others in the jail who have been denied bond.

Unless literally everyone in there is guilty of murder or setting people on fire, breaking some poor ladies back is pretty damn high on the violence severity scale.

How about the guys that have been posted here multiple times that have multiple violent offenses all the way up to AND INCLUDING MURDER that are being let out on $100, $1, and even PR bonds? Where do those guys fall on your spectrum Mr. Goaltender?

They fall on the scale that we have a beyond messed up system. I agree that these people being out freely on $100 bonds is horrible. I'm not trying to goaltend. I'm just trying to point out this isnt a problem that voting out people that have a D next to their name will fix. Harris County is a metro larger than many states population wise. These problems aren't unique to here. Perhaps we build another jail tower to throw more people in and raise taxes to pay for all of the extra officers and admin that have to man that. We also raise taxes to create more courts so there isn't a backlog. Whats that? you dont want your taxes or businesses taxes raised? Well then lets find one of the already underfunded county government functions to slash.

What the hell are other metros doing that have similar income distributions? Are they screwed too? I believe there is a way to fix the problem but it isnt as simple as throw em all in jail and toss the key or cut off the hands of all thieves. I just don't know what it would be other than to re-look at how we handle lower level crime and how we handle the poor here.

Given the FBI's track record lately, I'm not going to assume that the dead guy is a baddy.

Cross post from the other thread.

The piece of **** that's accused of paralyzing a woman is now complaining about her GoFundMe from jail.

These people went Axel Foley from Beverly Hills Cop 2 and stole a house in Meyerland.

Good grief. And the cops did nothing.

I don't believe their story.

what a nightmare! Hood rat scammers for sure. The "landlord" listed on the "contract" is named Ayodele Abimbola.

The poor homeowner literally got scammed by a Nigerian.
