THE MORNING AFTER
"I may have lost the . . . . .blah blah blah yada yada ya" rob freyer.
No 'may have' to it rob. 2000 votes is a trouncing and plain message that, despite your claims when first hired that you would 'remove Kitchens from the bench", my rebuke that "only the voters can make that call"fell on deaf ears with you.
If endless money and a perponderance of signs to the point of being LITTER could win political office, Laddie McAnally would still be a commissioner.
We the people are not stupid so quit with the stupidity. Slandering a great man who has more integrity and character in his litte finger than you have in your entire life, resume' and bank account won't do it.
Do you remember the first time we spoke rob? I called you in the SJC DA's office and asked you if it was true that you had been fired in Monkey County for showing up drunk on a crime scene. You seemed a little irritated and denied it so I shared that I had requested your personnel file from Bret Ligon.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING GETTING MY FILE?" you screamed into the phone.
I remember chuckling and saying, "Well if you don't like that, how about I get your file from where you are now?" and in ten minutes that PIA request was on DA Todd Dillon's desk.
I had already Gotten your Harris County file too. Between them, I learned that you had two DWI arrests and took a 50 percent pay cut and was driving a hundred miles a day further to work in lil ole SJC.
The real downside to all of this is you making it necessary to take Todd Dillon out. On a personal level, me and everyone I know likes Todd Dillon. There is no doubt that he loves San Jacinto Couty.
Todd Dillon's morning after statement reflects a man of honest character and humility. A man who wants to improve himself and learn. If onlyhe had listened back then.

BETHY'S ANSWER
Hi Bethy, saw a comment of yours that was forwarded to me claiming you couldn't get an answer as to whether or not I was the spokesperson for Judge Kitchens. What a crock of BS. When you make comments like that in a public forum, you may as well stand up, wave your hands back and forth and holler, "I am a dumbass and a liar." It has the same effect. Are you off of your meds again?
You and your ilk have done your damn level best to derail this election cycle with lies, inuendo, gossip and repeated criminal acts. We have the evidence that shows you to be the 'sniggler'.
We recognize that you didn't know Shoellhorn was a criminal before you tied him around freaky freyer's neck but you did know Hon was a loser and a corrupt cop when you did the same with him. The lure of having a corrupt judge withthe likes of freyer on the bench was just too enticing for such a criminal enterprise as you guys formed so it was, 'facts be damned, full speed ahead'.
And then the criminal Caruso. The commie bastard thinks it is ok to hack peoples' stuff and do warrantless surveillance on private communications apparently. It is laughable how gullible you are to fall for shoellhorns, "hey, I am a great guy, preacher, war hero and good cop and if you don't believe it, just ask or look at my youtube." LOL reminds me of Hon hanging his election hat on Grady Woods being a self professed war hero that turned out to be a convicted drug dealer drummed out of the military as a busted down private after doing his sentence in the brig. Now his wife, Jennifer is running for clerk. I can hear Hon now planning her campaign, "If we can just get our corrupt foot in the door".
Jennifer and Grady violated so many standing court orders for child visitation with the help of Hon, Lyons and the biatch sprayberry it is not even funny. Now she wants to be a clerk for the court? Hopefully the voters of Polk Co see past Jennifer Woods' lies.
Anyway, as to your answer. I only speak for myself and the oppressed who don't have a voice. Like I told the Texas Rangers when the corrupt vajayjay Hon had me arrested and charged with those felonies. I and only I am responsible for what it published on The Sentinel. NO ONE but ME controls MY publication. Yes I rely on community input and public records and requests but it is The Truth that is kicking your corrupt asses.

TRINITY COUNTY
WOODY UNDER INVESTIGATION
The Sentinel has written several articles about the corruption in Trinity County. From the asset forfieture supply line for woody's 4 auction houses to the illegal use of county property, materials and inmate labor for his political 'scholarship breakfast' we have been challenging any public integrity agency to investigate or as they say, 'follow the money'.
This last breakfast may have been the straw that broke the camel's back with woody's unadulterated endorsement of the criminal and corrupt candidate, robber Freyer pictured above. Every deputy we know of disavowed any support for freyer and made it clear they were there for the food only.
Sources indicate that a major walk out of deputies has left Trinity Co Sheriff needing a few hands.
A major shakeup in the Trinity Co auditor's office over someone 'leaking' information has taken place.
All of our efforts at The Sentinel to obtain records from the auditor or sheriff have been met with a challenge and oppostion from the sheriff's attorney, Iglesias at a great cost to the taxpayers. They even fought the records request of how much woody paid the attorney to fight me over the release of public records. Every request was met with a letter requesting 'clarification'. When I was seeking records on Chris Lima, Woody's golden boy that was busted by The Rangers for dealing drugs while in uniform, a marked patrol vehicle as the K-9 officer. Iglesias wanted me to clarify what I meant by K-9 officer.
I offered to get a brown paper sack and a crayon to exoplain it to them and never submitted another request to Woody Wallace, the most corrupt sheriff in East Texas.

DISTRICT CLERK LOSES TEMPER
A simple 'like' on a FB post appreciating the bravery and integrity of former ADA Marshall cost a District Clerk deputy her job today. The deputy stood up for her right to engage in social media on her own time at home. Tammy got mad because she is openly supporting the corrupt Freyer and fired the deputy for insubordination
Tammy's hungover tantrums are going to cost the County a lawsuit it appears. Don't bother calling Tammy tomorrow because, according to sources in the office, Fridays are adult beverage day.
This makes at least the 19th deputy Tammy has gone through during her tenure.
I can remember the days when both SJC Clerks' offices would have a hundred years of experience between the clerks in there. We all knew them and they knew us. What a difference a corrupt party chair and his wife have made in this county.
2/26/2026 THREE COUNTIES
The Sentinel has written before about the perverted freyer self fondle habit of grabbing and adjusting his junk in front of female attorneys in court when he knows they have to see him do it. More than one female attorney from more than one county has complained to The Sentinel about it. Now an honest criminal justice professional, a law man has made the quoted observation. It is as if Freyer found a play toy at 12 and just can't let go of it. Add that to his penchant for making every campaign speech end up being about sexual abuse of young girls and you have to wonder. Even now his corrupt FB cartel is, at his direction, expoliting a tragic case that is in the courts still. Freyer's political agenda is exploiting a young victim forcing her and her family to endure his political propaganda. All freyer's efforts will do is taint the jury pool, give the defendant a valid reason to seek a change of venue and delay justice. That is why the practice is an egregious violation of ethics that should cause his disbarment. Just review the Christipher Olivares case to find out freyer's actual attitude toward a confessed sexual child abuser.
UPDATE 2/26/2026
ILLEGAL SNIGGLE POST SURFACES
An AI meme generated with the intent to portray a political candidate in a false negative light with intent to interfere with the election made the rounds today ending up in the DA's office for possible prosecution. Stemming from my story about Freyer illegally dumping empty wine bottles in a private dumpster just below, The tacky meme showed the incumbant judge and his court coordinator digging thru a dumpster labeled, "Rob's Trash'. The only part that was accurate was that it was all Robber freyer's trash. The witness who took the picture and submitted it to The Sentinel did contact me today and say they were willing to stand behind the story by name as the source of it. I declined their offer because it isn't necessary. Their credibility, the picture and Sentinel vetting are enough for a 'trashy drunk' story.
That all pales in comparison to the reports received from a couple of candidates and onlookers at the Polk County Courthouse today. I am not talking about freyer having to be run out of the polling place wearing a campaign hat and shirt under his vest acting like 'the flasher' unzipping the vest at voters going by. Thank goodness for the Election Judge who ran the little punk out of the polling place and let him know his antics would not be tolerated in Polk Co.
I am talking about multiple witnesses to freyer losing his mind and aggressively approaching and hollering at the 258th Court Coordinator just outside the courthouse. Not only was the attorney she was engaged with on official business of The Court a witness, quite a few bystanders were astonished at freyer's 'loose nut' rant. What a punk to get in her face and holler at a woman like that. She was minding her business according to one witness when freyer got up and moved toward the Court official.
COLDSPRING 2/22/2026
CRIMINAL SPOTTED. pOSITIVE I.D.
One of the drawbacks of plastering your name and face on every available spot in the Tri County area is that people you don't even know can positively identify you.
Such is the case with Robber Freyer's most recent foray into the criminal realm.
Freyer was spotted dumping a bag of trash into a private dumpster on private property. Granted, it is commercial acces to the front of the property but the property is private property with a private dumpster for the tenants to use and split the costs.
"It had just been emptied yesterday and I heard glass bottles when the bag hit bottom" the witness stated. As freyer left the scene of the crime, the witness retrieved the bag and photographed the contents. There were several empty wine bottles and then a ripped open Amazon Pkg addressed to Ms. Coconu-freyer.
Once again, not the brightest bulb in the box. Commit a crime and leave your name and address there. DA used to stand for District Attorney. freyer has changed it to the acronym for Dumb Ass.
BAPTIZED IN THE TRINITY, IN THE TRINITY, IN TRINITY
The weight of a single week can sometimes hold the grief of a lifetime. For Judge Travis Kitchens, recent days have been defined by a profound, double-layered loss that tests the limits of the human heart.
It is one thing to serve the public from the bench, but it is another entirely to serve a fellow human being in their most vulnerable, final moments.
For fifty years, Judge Kitchens shared a bond with a close friend—a man who, in the final chapter of his life, found himself without a family to lean on. When he was released into hospice care, he wasn't alone. The Judge stepped into the gap, keeping a three-day "death watch."
In those quiet, heavy hours, Judge Kitchens was the sole presence, providing the comfort and dignity every person deserves at the end of their journey. It was an act of pure, selfless friendship—holding a hand as a fifty-year story came to a peaceful close.
Grief rarely waits for us to catch our breath. Only three days after the passing of his dear friend, tragedy struck again, this time with the shocking suddenness that leaves a family reeling.
The Judge’s brother passed away unexpectedly while doing something he loved—playing tennis in Austin. To go from the slow, anticipated goodbye of a long-term friend to the jarring, instantaneous loss of a brother is a burden few can imagine.
In times like these, the rigors of campaigning are set aside for the simple reality of being a grieving friend and a mourning brother.
Our thoughts are with Judge Kitchens and his family as they navigate this incredibly difficult season. May he find the same comfort and peace he so selflessly gave to his friend in those final three days.
TRI DISTRICT 2/21/2026
FREYER'S FOOLERY FRUSTRATES FRIENDLY'S
In a political ploy that can only be labled as'fRoolish', the amature freyer attacked The Honorable Judge Kitchens about his age in a three county area around the lake populated by . . . . wait for it. . . . Retirees. Many are the same age or older than Judge Kitchens and sharp as a tack still just like Judge is. Lord knows Judge Kitchens has verbally sliced and diced the youngster every time their political paths have crossed. The most memorable was when the liar freyer crashed a POA meeting and demon strated his ignorance for the crowd better than any attack ad could ever do. Freyer responded to a developer's pointed question with, "I don't know, I will have to research it."
We knew and even published predictively that freyer would send out another nasty attack ad liar flyer just before elections. We never imagined the novice would make the mistake of insulting the majority of the voting base with his ageist attacks. Attacks presuming Judge Kitchens' depth of experience to be a handicap. One old coot reminded me of Ronnie Reagan' s quip when his opponent attacked his age saying, "I won't hold my opponent's youth and inexperience against him."
I doubt the Retirees will be so forgiving when they cast their ballots.
At least two called my office when freyer recently violated the law concerning 501 c3 laws by bringing campaign literature and handouts into the Coldspring Senior Citizen's center. His selfish act endangered the center's tax exempt status just for his political agenda. Is he too stupid to know the law or does he just not care? As John Nunn would say, "Neither answer is good." One caller shared that at least one board member was in favor of the violation of law and got an earful over his error.
To me, one of freyer's dumbest antics was faking an endorsement from the 79 year old Trump and then attacking the 72 year young District Judge, Travis Kitchens for his age. Every box of bulbs must have a dim one in it.
<SJC REP PARTY CORRUPT
Dwayne doesn't even pretend to follow party directives on neutrality. He has decided that the SJC Conservative voters are too stupid to recognize his back stabbin graft and corruption or too crooked to care. Maybe if we undervote his 'unopposed' ballot by skipping it, someone with integrity and character will run against him next election cycle.
UPDATE: One life long conservative Christian and local republican has agreed to seriously consider a run at the party chair position.
NOW YOU KNOW WHY
Bethy Evans who was recently quoted by a fellowette reveler at the liar freyer fundraiser as saying. "No, I am here by myself" and clarified, "I'm not political".
Then you take a picture of the Honorable Judge Travis Kitchens, who is a politial candidate and use some artificial intelligence program to exagerate the wrinkles, gray and unkempt look and post a bunch of ignornant 'non fact, "facts" on the bottom in a failed attempt to be poltiical.
Judge Kitchens is and has been fully vested inthe STATE, STATE, STATE, retirement system. It doesn't effect or affect the local taxpaying public like you claim.
In your dumbassery, you have proven you are not political because you made your opponent look even more like a genius than he already did. Also you violated the statute that makes it a crime to use AI to effect an election and lie doing it.
Yes this picture of you is enhanced. Started with the last photo you sent, 'enhanced' what was already going on and voila.

R.O.W. FREYER RIDES AGAIN
The only 'right'thing about liar freyer's campaign and tenure as the most corrupt ADA in SJC history is where he puts his signs, In the 'right'.o.w. a tell tale sign. PUN INTENDED. It is nothing I need to prove or get documents on because we have all seen Liar Freyer's signs in the Right of Ways. State R.O.W.'s are illegal but we all saw him do that and twice the state has had to remove freyer's illegal signs. Granted that placing political signs in the county r.o.w.'s is legal during certain time periods surrounding an election but what does that really say about a candidate? If an abundance of signs in the county r.o.w. could win an election, the corrupt Laddie McAnally would still be in office. We all remember the eyesore of his abandoned signs after his defeat lingering for years.
Add that to Liar Freyer falsifying multiple endorsement photos starting with President Trump on down, illegally placing signs on private property and what do you have? A candidate with no property owners actually endorsing him. That is why you see his signs in all the county r.o.w.'s and not in folks front yard.
When an acting ADA nails a sign to your wooden fence without permission that is also running for judge, do you just go out and take it down or think, "He is an ADA that can retaliate and God forbid, what if he does get elected judge?"
If freyer will falsify endorsements for an election, he will falsify evidence for a conviction. Ask Bubba Gibson.

LAWLESS TWINS RIDE AGAIN
Yet another report from a private proeprty owner that had a Fritz Faulkner campaign sign on their fence snapped this photo of the "poof or 'puff' appears robber freyer and now F U joe Biden "lets go brandon" signs. Neither of these lawless candidates had permission but just nailed their signs to a private property wooden fence.
I did take a few liberties with the images so they would be true. Lol the 'texas tough'. Read up on the Olivares case and know Freyer is a LIAR
258 th DISTRICT
LIVINGSTON — Is it a campaign mailer or a game of "Where’s Waldo?" Local voters are rubbing their eyes this week after judicial candidate Rob Freyer unleashed a marketing blitz that looks more like a high school yearbook than a legal endorsement list.
Freyer, who is gunning for the 258th Judicial District Court seat, seems to have a new strategy: if you can’t get the endorsement, just take the photo!
The drama reached a fever pitch when Dr. Robin Armstrong, a heavyweight in the Texas GOP, had to pull a "I don't know her" (or him, in this case). Despite appearing in Freyer’s glossy campaign materials, Dr. Armstrong has gone on the record to clarify that he has not endorsed Freyer—or anyone else in this race.
Sources close to the situation say Dr. Armstrong isn’t the only one finding his face plastered on a mailer or social media without so much as a "thank you" or a permission slip. It’s a bold move for a man who wants to be a judge—the very job that requires respecting things like, oh, the law and personal consent.
"It’s the ultimate photo-op fail," whispered one local political operative. "He’s basically using other people’s reputations as a human shield. It’s like cropping yourself into a photo with a celebrity and telling everyone you’re best friends."
While Freyer’s mailers suggest a "who’s who" of support, the reality is looking more like a "who’s that?" and "why am I on this?"
With incumbent Travis Kitchens standing in his way, Freyer seems to be trying to muscle his way into the hearts of voters by association. But as the "phantom endorsements" continue to stack up, voters are left wondering: if Freyer is this loose with the facts on a postcard, how’s he going to handle a courtroom?
The Verdict: Rob might want to invest in a mirror instead of a camera, because he needs to take a long hard look at himself and try to see if he recognizes any resemblance of integrity.

The crowd was good, the music enjoyed and the great show of support for The Honorable Travis Kitchens is much appreciated. Many of the good times were portrayed on the FB page Judge Kitchens has for keeping current with the voters.
Shelia Ann Music and Timothy Productions handled the logistics and brought the band but even Judge Kitchens got up and jammed with them on his bass guitar. "It really shows his down to earth humanity" one attendee responded, "when he gets into the music and the good times with us."
Several who were there to enjoy the festivities were the Trinity Co Judge, The Honorable Danny R. Martin, SJC's Veterans Service Officer, Dale Everitt, Political pwerhouse, Patricia Marrs, Mr. Evans and his wife who, it is reported,has a great sense of humor and many many others.
Shelia Ann got the crowd going with her talent and charisma as an entertainer and singer.

SJC DA WITHOLDS RECORDS
Despite specific wording on a Sentinel Alert open records request for the Christopher Olivares file because it proves that the corrupt ADA Rob Freyer is a BALD FACED LIAR, DA Dillon witheld the damning proof of the Freyer lies. In this case, the subordinate ADA had Olivares up for prison time, S.O. Registration, losing teacher certification, etc for, as a teacher, sending nude video of himself to a Jr.Hi girl. Freyer stepped in as lead ADA and over ruled her prosecution and let Olivares go with a little more county jail time and probation.
We will bring the full scope of freyer's lies about being tough on sex crimes and protecting children. Stay tuned as we prove freyer was the states attorney, reduced all the charges. Search the DPS S.O. registry for yourself and see if you can find 'Christopher Olivares'. My sources say that freyer didnt require registration in his version of a plea deal, but did not require Olivares to relenquish his teaching certificate.
The T.E.A. has so far refused to answer that question.
2/7/2026 TRI COUNTY DISTRICT
As reported on The Sentinel, the Liar Flyers from Freyer the Liar hit the mailboxes today in much of the 258th district. Instead of a regular postal carrier, freyer contracted with a 'private distributor' to circulate his product. We were able to snap a quick photo and duck back inside.
258th District, Polk, SJC, Trinity
After multiple reports that Liar Freyer was touting the Eli Binnion case as a miscarriage of justice blaming The Honorable 258th District Judge, Travis Kitchens, I did research The Sentinel archives. I found the following press statement issued by Binnion's attorney to refute the Lying Press release sent by Lee Hon to the publications that published Hon's narrative with no vetting. Polk County Enterprise, Willie Openshaw's Polk County Today and TV journalist, Ivory Hecker.
This reprint is of my own volition to bring pertinent facts to bear on the story freyer is slinging like a farmer spreading manure. It is relevant today because the truth never gets old.

TREASURER CANDIDATE LIKES CROOK
What a disappointing thing to see the SJC Candidate Cyndi McClure team up with a crook like Florida Freyer. A corrupt ADA that Cynthia and her sign man hubby knows is corrupt because I personally made sure they had access to the evidence.
I don't endorse any candidate ever but I am actively opposing McClure at this point. If she is willing to associate her campaign for treasurer with a theif like Florida freyer who as a matter of record has proven that he will falsify his payroll records and use disretionary funds from the DA's office to fund his campaign, I don't want her anywhere near the checkbook for SJC.
SJC Treasurer Dee Dee Baily and I have sparked over a few issues and Lord knows if my back side was grass, she has mowed it a time or two over a story I wrote but Dee Dee has always been open, transparent and responsive to my inquirey on any topic.

LOCAL LAWYER LACERATES LIAR
Legal analyst and fact finder for the Conservative News organization, Breitbart has taken to FB in a personal post regarding the 258th District Judge race. In it, Lana Shadwick Price has taken no prisioners with a no reasonable doubt narrative that would make any competent prosecutor proud. LIAR Freyer probably didn't like it much but his incompetence is legendary.
Three Sentinel readers have forwarded me the content of the post knowing FB banned me yet again.
She opened her comment with a link to The Honorable 258th District Judge, Travis Kitchens speech at the recent Pointblank Meet N Greet that was quite a success many stated. We did publish a link in the prior story to the entire evening and all the speakers on the SJC TV channel Ray McCoppin publishes but HERE is what Attorney Shadwick requested the readers view before reading her comment. It is Judge Kitchens' speech.
Just for context and a short stroll down Sentinel Reader memory lane, Attorney Shadwick was representing Bubba Gibson when Freaky Freyer, as prosecutor on the case, had staff go into Gibson's cell in the Polk County jail and take all of Gibson's personal documents, lawyer/client priviledge paperwork, defense strategy and witness list. Then Freaky Freyer went so far as to call the defense witnesses according to testimony. Ms. Shadwick raked that poor boy over the coals in open court. The last day of the hearing saw freyer showing up in a wrinkled suit and mop head of hair which was fitting because Ms. Shadwick mopped the floor with Liar Freyer. Below is Ms. Shadwick's comment in
multiple jpeg files
JUDGE KITCHENS RESPONSE TO ATTNY SHADWICK'S COMMENT
Thanks Ms. Shadwick for your comment. The voters need to pay attention to this election and investigate the background and prior actions of those who seek to sit on this bench and make the serious decisions that a district judge makes, especially in a court of general jurisdiction that hears all types of cases - not just criminal cases - that affect the lives of those who find themselves in court. No one (well at least most normal people) wants to go to court and have the most private and intimate details of their lives discussed in front of other people. EVERYONE is entitled to a fair, independent, and impartial judge - both victims and accused citizens. A judge takes an oath to preserve, protect and defend our Constitutions - it is not an oath to a political party. Politics have no business in a COURT OF LAW. It is unethical for a judge to say how he is going to rule before all parties involve have an opportunity to present their case to the court. The 258th District Court, serving Polk, San Jacinto and Trinity Counties, is a court of general jurisdiction, and it hears all types of cases, as I said in this speech. I did not just move to this area. I moved here in 1978 with my wife and we raised our family here. I represented thousands of citizens over my 41 years of law practice before getting elected your District Judge in 2018. I have participated in countless benefits and events - without seeking any recognition, in all these years - to help MY community. The citizens I have represented for over 48 years since I moved to this area after Baylor Law School, including the victims when I was a prosecutor, and citizens seeking redress of their legal rights since leaving the District Attorney's office, are entitled to no less! Regardless of how you vote, get your ass off your couch, study the candidates (not just this election but all elections) and get out and vote. That precious right to vote has been protected by the blood and sacrifice of my father and those millions of Americans who fought for your rights! And show up for jury duty so you can participate in finding justice for all those who seek it! Justice is not just a fancy 7 letter word - it is essential to our freedom! Thank you - Travis Kitchens
2/2/2026 FACEBOOK
Facebook is once again guilty of election interference by letting this fake profile spew utter nonsense that zuckerburg knows is nonsense. In the meantine, we hereby award FB.F.P. (FaceBook Fake Profile) the triple dumbass award. Lets start with it demon strating ignorance of acronyms and how they work. This dumbass used the word, 'rhino' as in an African bio tank with thick skin and a horn that can flip a carload of pickle heads on their arse. instead of the proper, R.I.N.O. Anyone except this fake profile knows it stands for, Republican In Name Only. Therefore the second aspect of the triple dumbass award. The Honorable Judge Kitchens is a Republican and ran on the Republican ticket the first time he ran for District Judge. More importantly, Judge Kitchens is a conservative Christian Constitutionalist. Now for the third level of the triple dumbass award. Lying. The utter idiocy of posting liar freyer's liar flyer claiming endorsement of sheriff Sam Houston when Sheriff Houston has published a statement refuting the liar freyer's claim proves tricky ricky is a total dumbass. Think about it. The bible is very plain that all unrepentent liars will b urn,.
My personal opinion after reading some more of the triple dumbass' other false statements is that the profile only becomes active during political season when Hon is involved, spouts Hon's lies over and over but seems feminine. Either it is one of Hon's female operatives that suffers from a bad case of penis envy or it is Jimmy Steelhammer and Teddy Sims trying to be 'manly' after forever feminizing their own profiles. Jimmy by kissing a little boy full on the mouth and teddy for taking two to beat up one old man. I still have both photos. Should I run them again Jim Ted? If tricky ricky the tiny dicky posts again, I will find them for one more round.

SHERIFF ISSUES STATEMENT
As reported a few days ago on the Freyer Follies (moved to 258th page), our sheriff is NOT endorsing Rob Freyer for district judge.
The sneaky snake Florida Freyer used a photo op after getting Sheriff Houston to show up for a dog rescue fund raiser knowing our sheriff is a soft touch for a stray dog. While he had Sheriff Houston and the Trinity Co sheriff there, Liar freyer jumped in between the two men for a photo op. Freyer then posted that dog rescue photo on his campaign page claiming that he had the endorsement of, "Two of the three republican sheriffs" in the district. Once again, Freyer LIES through his teeth. Granted freyer did not name Sam Houston in the endorsement ad but he is a slimy attorney and knows most folks will see the picture and hear the 'thousand words' a picture is worth and believe his lie without digging for themselves. Yes Sheriff Houston was smiling but everyone knows that no matter what else is said, Sheriff Houston loves dogs. It is just the 'dirty dawg' that put himself in the middle of the two sheriffs that is not trustworthy and Sheriff will not let Freyer get by with deceiving people with a set up picture. The issue left Sheriff with his obligation to protect the integrity of the S.O. with no choice but to issue a plain language statement that he is not endorsing any candidate.
As a prosecutor attorney, freyer knows that he was implicating the sheriff in a possible Hatch Act violation prompting Sheriff to issue a plain language statement in order to
distance himself and his office from the corrupt practices of liar freyer.

Candidate 'liar' Freyer lost his SH*T this morning at an HOA annual workshop held at the Yaupon Cove pavilion. The event was an invitation gathering with reports that ROBber Freyer showed up at with no invitation.
The Honorable 258th District Judge, Travis Kitchens was invited to this POA, HOA workshop as the featured speaker simply because in his law practice over the years, he has represented over 100 POA and HOA organizations as their attorney. One of the lake area developers took the opportunity to ask The Good Judge some legal questions regarding zoning and other issues, over a dozen questions which Judge Kitchens answered with no hesitation. Freyer, who like I said, was not even invited but showed up, had enough and began complaining that he should have equal opportunity to address the crowded room. At that point, the developer turned to freyer and said, "Alright, I would love to hear your take on these issues." and fired a question at him. Freyer replied with a sheepish, "Well I don't know, I would have to research it."
Judge Kitchens commented to the crowd pointing out that was the difference in a green attorney and a seasoned judge at which point, Freyer literally lost his mind and jumped up and started hollering at Judge Kitchens.
Far from being intimidated at all, Judge Kitchens raiesed his voice and fired right back. "Are you calling me a liar?", freyer screamed.
Judge Kitchens retorted", Yes you have lied to me in my courtroom."
Freyer's ears were smoking by this time and the jist of the event from multiple sources was that The Honorable Travis Kitchens, "Owned the room".
In a most interesting turn of events, Bethany shared that a fried of hers recorded the event as there were several reporters there but has not agreed to share the video with me yet.

GROVETON 1/22/26
A candidate meet n greet held in Groveton, Tx last night was well attended and gave voters an opportunity to compare and contrast the two District Judge candidates. Freyer was his typical bad mouthing angry lying self. aAs the last to speak, Honorable Travis Kitchens had opportunity to contrast freyer with calm matter of fact confident display of being right and having the backbone to stand on that.
One thing Judge Kitchens shared was about a motion to suppress that he had granted in Trinity Co some time back on evidence that the corrupt sheriff woody wallace's dept collected via an illegal search and seizure. Judge Kitchens granted the defense motion to suppress that evidence based on woody's criminal proceedures and DA Shiro appealed it to the higher court. They blasted the judge for defending the constitutional rights of the accused and filed the appeal.
The higher court upheld the Honorable 258th Dirstrict Judge, Travis Kitchen's ruling.
Apparently the most corrupt sheriff in East Texas didn't like his crimes being exposed in public so he as come out of the corrupt closet to endorse the most corrupt judge candidate in years, SJC's ADA Freyer. We have not been able to find a written public endorsement but Freyer is telling folks that Woodrow is endorsing him.
ADDENDUM Woodrow is posting freyer campaign photos on his own WW facebook page.

CONSTITUENT CONCERNS
publisher's note: This narrative was received at The Sentinel offices this morning stating intent to remain anonymous. The statement is factual based on multiple complaints against SJC District Clerk, Tammie Currie regarding the same issues. We will honor the anonymity of this reader.

On the occasions when Ms. Currie has been observed, her presence appears inconsistent with the court's scheduled start time. Court is scheduled to begin at 8:00 a.m., yet her arrival has been observed significantly later, and in some instances, she does not appear at all.
More concerning are the apparent operational issues within the office itself. Court filings and indictments appear to be delayed for extended periods, in some cases for months, before being properly filed or processed. These delays have real consequences for defendants, victims, attorneys, and the overall efficiency of the judicial system.
It appears that the day-to-day functioning of the office is largely being handled by clerks who work under the District Clerk. While these employees appear to be making efforts to keep the office running, the lack of consistent leadership and availability from the elected official raises serious questions about accountability, oversight, and public service.
Given that the District Clerk is an elected official entrusted with maintaining accurate records and ensuring timely court administration, I believe these issues are a matter of public concern and warrant further inquiry. I am submitting this information anonymously due to concern about potential retaliation and in the interest of transparency and accountability. Thank you for your time and attention. - A concerned county resident

ROBber FREYER'S LIAR FLYERS COME BACK AND BITE
In his typical, cheat to win mentality, Florida Freyer deceived the SJC Sheriff to get a photo op to use in his campaign. On the pretext of a fund raiser for the dog rescues in SJC and Trinity Co, Freyer made a donation to waggin tails and took a photo with himself standing betweem SJC Sheriff, Sam Houston and Trinity Co Sheriff, Woodrow Wallace. Now Liar Freyer is using the photo claiming, without naming Sam Houston, that he has the endorsement of two of the three republican sheriffs in our district.
Sam Houston has never endorsed Freyer and said he will not endorse Him. According to sources close to our Sheriff, he is a little miffed that Freyer resorted to the lying cheating tactics ot imply an endorsement that does not exist. Nor does the Polk county Republican Sheriff, Byron Lyons endorse Freyer.
Woody Wallace is a different story but then he is the most corrupt sheriff in East Texas. Freyer, Woodrow, Hon are all peas in a pod and want a corrupt judge on the bench.
Freyer keeps calling The Hornorable 258th District Court Judge, Travis Kitchens, a RINO when Judge Kitchens has run as a Republican from day one in his service to our community.
Let me remind folks that Freyer, when calling legit endorsement of Judge Kitchens from Former well loved Polk Co sheriff, Billy Ray Nelson a RINO endorsing a RINO, he may as well call President Trump a RINO. REMEMBER. Just like every other elected official in this part of the world, Trump was a Democrat before he wasn't.
n the high-stakes world of East Texas judicial politics, Rob Freyer seems to be operating on the "vibes only" campaign model. If you’ve glanced at the marketing for the 258th Judicial District race, you might walk away under the impression that Mar-a-Lago has a direct line to San Jacinto County.
But as any good lawyer knows, the "fine print" is usually where the truth goes to hide.
Freyer’s campaign strategy appears to be a masterclass in political osmosis. By saturating his materials in the visual language of the current administration—bold reds, patriotic flourishes, and carefully curated proximity to the "Make America Great Again" brand—he’s attempting to harvest the energy of a presidential endorsement without actually having, well, the endorsement.
It’s a classic case of Endorsement by Association. If you stand close enough to a gold-plated sign, some of the glitter is bound to rub off on your suit, right? For the casual voter in Polk, San Jacinto, or Trinity counties, the "smoke and mirrors" are working overtime to imply that he is the chosen warrior of the 47th President.
In reality, a search for an actual, signed endorsement from the White House or the RNC yields a whole lot of... crickets. While Freyer touts his "energy and accountability" and his Board Certification (which, to be fair, is a legitimate professional credential), he’s remarkably quiet about the fact that his "endorsements" are mostly a collection of:
When pressed on the lack of big-name political backing, the Freyer camp usually pivots back to his 30 years of experience and his certification. It's a solid defense—after all, it's hard to argue with a resume. But let’s call it what it is: a shiny distraction from the fact that he’s running a "disruptor" campaign without the actual disruptor-in-chief's seal of approval.
He’s betting that in the 258th, if it looks like a Trump-backed candidate and sounds like a Trump-backed candidate, voters won't bother to check if the check actually cleared.
