I understand your methods , but directed name calling should be given to who you are directly dealing with such as sprayberry or Libby. Yes you did say those things to me a week before I was arrested , but I won't stand for our kids, and anyone else having their rights violated . I will always be Bluethebluelinewatcher1776 ONLY, but I do thank the Sentinel Alert for all of the support . As a journalist you could at least attempt to make direct contact with who you are talking negative about, calling names, and you don't have record anything to write down quotes and what is directly said by a public servant to include in your story; I can support ,stand behind the negativity, and name calling if you would put the effort in of directly speaking to them first ,quoting their responses, and the result earned it. I have read many of your stories , and know that you spoke to people directly,but don't understand why you chose to handle this story differently. I still and always will support The Sentinel Alert, but I will also give my opinion .
AH BLUE THE BLUE LINE APOLOGIST
There are a few
who come back for two
but most don't like
the slice and dice twice.
Blue you are more than welcome to have, hold and express your own opinion, even on my page. What you can't have are your own facts.
You said in your diatribe, "should be given to who you are directly dealing with such as sprayberry or Libby."
FACT I have never dealt with Sprayberry or Liby directly on this written interview as it was addressed to Byron Lyons by name. His proxy took it from there and replied to me with erroneous information but no answer to my request. I just want the two documents in PDF so I can read them on a backlit screen. I don't want to go anywhere or pay any money just to observe our govt in action via the wonder of the internet.
FACT Byron knows as well as you do that my vision limitations prevent me from driving anywhere and that I don't have an extra five dollars to be ripped off over .20 cents worth of public records. Twenty cents worth IF IF IF they were paper and ink. PDF is free. He is hiding something. It is that simple. History repeats itself. Probably hiding that his deputy did indeed "hot box" a vet over a bogus trumped up charge that the deputy NEVER investigated. Security cameras in plain sight from where the man was arrested but the deputy nor Byron ever asked to see the video. To her credit, Polk County District Attorney, Hon. Shelly Sitton did reach out seeking the footage after Byron sought criminal charges. Once she knew the evidence was there Ms. Sitton wanted it even though it may, if that Sentinel can be believed, prove to be exculpatory. When Truth and Justice are more important than the win column, you have a District Attorney, not just a politician.
EAST TEXAS 10/20/2023
CHILD ADVOCATE MAKES FULL CIRCLE
A longstanding track record of advocacy for children, women, minorities and any oppressed, Rosemary Covalt has now taken on the man (father) eating monster known as unenforced family court 'orders'. Long a domain many women used to deny father's visitation rights. When fathers rights are ignored and unenforced, he has no rights.
In Texas, the laws are fairly written on child support and visitation but the inequality is all in the non enforcement.
As Ms. Covalt is fond of saying, "Their power is in ignoring us". Her interest in a case in East Texas has already proven hard for them to ignore. A case where It is (sadly common) in which a step father is interfering in child visitation and engaging in intentional parental alienation efforts. Those proveable crimes coupled with serious allegations of physical abuse of the child were delivered with a bow on it to investigators who did take notice.
Is there a light at the end of the tunnel for father's rights in East Texas?
"It is public information and public knowledge", Ms. Covalt is also fond of saying Armed withphotos of at least a half a dozen sritten reports of child interference to the S.O by the father, when the secretary checked their 'official' files, she reported not a single call slip in their file. "Isn't that interesting" one member in the conference was heard commenting as Ms. Covalt hammered her with the copies. "Let me look again" the secretary said exiting then returned saying, "I found three of them". Another, "isn't that interesting" rose from the meeting as the investigators began looking over all of the evidence.
Can a mother steal her children from their father right under his nose? Only with the full cooperation of corrupt law enforcement or should I say, corrupt non enforcement?
"That is a civil matter" is the pat response of the non interested party.
NEWS FLASH Interference with child custody is a State Jail Felony.

ACTIVIST TRESPASSED FROM I.S.D.
The same group of auditors that were trespassed from Shepherd I.S.D. have now been trespassed from the Livingston I.S.D. property for an incident from the 28th of November. It followed much the same scenario of the group of three entering the property and going to the transportation / admin bldgs seeking open records.

SHEPHERD ISD 12/5/2023
SCHOOL SCARE SCORES SCRUTINY
Events unfolding on Shepherd I.S.D. property yesterday prompted a security lockdown being implemented and broadcast on the ISD FB page.
A group of constitutional activists parked and walked onto the Shepherd ISD property with no recognition of identity or purpose by school administrators and district personnel.
The first contact the group of two men and one woman made was with the Shepherd ISD warehouseman in the shop facilities on the property. Their stated purpose was to request some bus maintinence records under the public information laws.
The group was trespassed from the ISD property after entering the Administration building. "I think the shorter guy with the baggy jacket and pants believes that school property is public property the same as the courthouse or city hall and it just isn't" an ISD spokesperson stated during a Sentinel interview.
At nearly the same time as these events were occuring, there was a shooting incident that injured an Austin I.S.D. police officer. Story HERE.
The group approached the Coldspring I.S.D. with the same stated purpose and were given opporutnity to request the records and no further incident reported. Dr. Taulton amd I.S.D. Chief Dean met with the group.

UPDATE 4/26/2021
OPD PARTIALLY ANSWER OPEN RECORDS REQUEST
The below narrative is the probable cause affidavit filed by OPD's Tammy Heeth. The law firm representing the City of Onalaska is seeking an OAG opinion on witholding the body cam video because it is part of the investigation. The fact that they want to withold it confirms the video evidence does exist.
UPDATE 4/22/2021
ISD ANSWERS OPEN RECORDS REQUEST
The Onalaska ISD administration did confirm that the mom did come into the office and make a verbal complaint against the traffic control officer Heeth as claimed by the mother but no written document was made by the school or exists. Also it has been confirmed that neither camera on that side of the school captured the event on tape. "Our cameras are focused on the parking lot and the indicent occurred just outside their view."
There has been no reply by the city of Onalaska to The Sentinel request for open records and video but a non official source states that OPD officer Heeth is claiming that the mom struck her with her vehicle.
ONALASKA 4/1/2021
OPD RESOURCE OFFICER IMPLICATED IN RETALIATION ARREST
Eight year veteran of the Onalaska PD effected the elementary school arrest of a disabled mom delivering her children to school on April Fools day. OPD officer, Tammy Heeth, no stranger to controversy and "anger issue" complaints from the past, attempted to pull this mother out of her car window by the hair of the head according to the arrested mom.
School administrators confirm to The Sentinel that in the days prior to her arrest, the mom had taken the time to park and go into the school office to file a complaint about the traffic control person from an incident that occurred between them that very morning. The mom alleged that she was singled out and made to go around back to drop her kids when the cars in front of her and behind her were allowed to continue dropping kids in the normal place.
According to the mom, some days later, she and her children were confronted by Heeth in the Onalaska Brookshire Bros store and had a verbal altercation.
On the morning of April first, the mom was in line to drop her kids when she claims that Heeth, once again wearing a traffic vest only and no OPD uniform, jumped in front of her vehicle banging the hood then worked her way around the vehicle to the open drivers window grabbing the mom by the hair and attempting to pull her out the window to effect an arrest. The mom was arrested, her elementary school kids traumatized and she was charged with 'Aggravated Assault on a Peace Officer' and taken to the Polk County Jail.
8/8/2021 CORRIGAN PD DISPLAYS CORRUPTION AND INTENT TO STAY IN STONE AGES
in a day and age when criminal justice reform is in the fast lane, the leadership at Corrigan PD are having a hard time letting go of the 'old days' of Li Hon's leadership as top cop for Polk County where retaliation, fraudulent charges and harrassment of those who question or oppose him are targeted for 'punishment by the process'. Much evidence The Sentinel has published proves that arrest, bond, lawyer expense and character assination are the tools of the corrupt few in law enforcement who engage in those tired and corrupt practices.
The rank and file of Corrigan PD are not only opposed to the recent actions of their leadership but are embarrased to be associated with those who are promoting and engaging in the Li Hon play book tactics being used against Brandon White.
A precedent setting case linked here 'Turner vs Driver will give any interested reader some background on the progress that has been made by concerned citizens, activists and patriots toward protecting our rights as citizens from the over reach of the corruptwho posess tyranical tendencies. That case made it plain that photography, especially from a public right of way, is legal but Corrigan PD says no. Another precedent setting case that proved using the Fbomb in a statement or on a sign at a protest in the public space IS protected by our first amendment, 'Free Speech' protections but once again, Corrigan PD says no. All it took, according to the PD spokesperson on this video was a call from a citizen who was "offended" by seeing the word on a sign to wipe out the precedent setting case and all of Brandon Whites 1st Amendment protections. MULTIPLE arrests of Brandon White on flimsy and questionable charges that will never stand up in court have costs him bond money and much ridicule at the hands of Li Hon's personal propaganda publisherof the boot licker times. If Hon follows his normal practice, the charges will either be thrown out or dismissed but never the less, the target of the corrupt practice will have been thouroughly punished by the process. We all remember the Preaumeaux inmate that spent over 800 days in jail on charges that were dropped for lack of evidence. Sentinel readers will remember the in depth study The Sentinel did on the hundreds of cases that Hon dismissed in a four year period after punishing those folks by putting them through the process. When it came to proving his case, he couldn't do it. The Sentinel was the victim of the same corrupt method at Li Hon's hands. The last place a county needs an inept liar and tyrant is in the DA's office.
ANGELINA COUNTY 12/15/2020
DA INHERITS MARTIN'S MUCKRAKER
"NO MORE Open Records Requests is part of bond conditions."???????????????
Former Angelina County District Attorney, Joe Martin, left an open can of worms in the back of his bottom drawer when he jumped ship right after elections.
The DA elect, Ms. Janet Cassels who was appointed to finish the rest of Martin's unexpired term after winning the election, must have been cleaning out his 'uh oh' drawers because the first thing she did was distance herself from the 'special prosecutor' status Martin held on the bogus case Lee Hon had him bring against me. Having bragged to more than one constituent that he could, "get a ham sandwich indicted", Martin found out that to carry a crooks water makes you a crook too and I am not afraid to prove just that. A former employee of Hon's, Martin just assumed it would be like all the rest. Indict them, arrest them, jail them and ruin their lives. That way you teach them and theirs to never cross you again.
Making the process the punishment even when there is no evidence has worked for Hon for so many years, Martin thought one more for the road wouldn't matter. Or was it two?
A complex and fascinating Angelina County case The Sentinel has been investigating for over a year now was left in Martin's low level drawer. A lot of similarities between this case, my case and several more in this part of Texas that establish a distinct and 'by the play book' pattern of prosecutorial misconduct among the corrupt few when it comes to indicting those pesky investigative journalists that don't care who you are or even who you think you are.
A controversial and dogged muckraker from Angelina County who published The East Texas Reporter and did provocative livestreams on FB named David Stua found his ham sandwich A$$ indicted in Angelina County and charged with a sexual crime against a 'child'. The so called 'crime' was videod and livestreamed to FB. The so called child was a college student on a college campus whose hard work and gifted abilities had him enrolled in college courses when he was under 17 and still in high school.
We have not seen the video but it amounted to Stua approaching various people and saying, "I believe in circumcision. You want to see?" and then filming their reaction when he produced a paper, "Certificate of Circumscison" to show them.
Stua had been admonished in the College library not to use the word, "Circumcision" out loud prior to him having the idea to do the interviews that landed him in legal trouble. In fact, the library called the law on Stua for using the word circumcision. Stua would have to admit that he was warned that it was a bad idea to do the certificate of circumcision interviews when he voiced the idea to a fellow muckracker from near Waco. Not because he thought it was illegal but because it was distasteful. Stua did the interviews and the long arm of the law hammered down when he asked two teen males that question on video.
One man's ceiling is another man's floor on what is socially acceptable but when it comes to the law, those preferences are out the window. The very judge who imposed the civil rights denying abusive bond conditions just happened to be one of the elected officials Stua was and had investigated. There were open records requests pending for phone records that one claimed his phone, "erased them every day' and another just flat refused to answer. What in the allegations of wrong doing against Stua warrants an ankle monitor, no smart phone, no computer, no internet and no travel outside the county? Asking someone that rude and smart aleck question? NO MORE OPEN RECORDS REQUESTS is part of bond conditions for that? BLATANT CORRUPTION HERE
It has all the earmarks of shutting a vocal political liability down so he can't ask questions, communicate or publish stories or documents, not protecting the public. FIRST of all, the judge should have recused himself because of the ongoing conflict between him and the Muckraker. Then maybe his personal political goals (not being exposed for wrong doing) would not have caused this blatant abuse of power.
What most overlook is that for these kind of abuses to flourish, it takes cooperation of more than one. Can we say R.I.C.O. ?
