LOWERY RECORDS BEGIN TO SURFACE

Prompt TCOLE answers to open records requests provide definitive information about the service and education career Lowery has accumalted.  Lowery was Mark Price's investigator during the time Price fled bogus felony charges and bogus lawsuits against, "unnamed co-conspirators".  and drug our county through the mud of lies and inuendo.  It is that simple.  

   The reason I use the phrase, "begin to surface" in the headline is because Shepherd ISD has already retreated behind a new attorney firm since the time we fought for and won  Ruby Wells personnel file.  They have asked for 'Clarification" and we did respond.  In addition to the lawyer response to our request, we have confirmed without doubt that Kenneth Dale Lowery did work for the Shepherd ISD and did resign  his position.

A Sentinel network s

ubmitted article below overshadows (rightfully so) another issue at play here.  The mother in seeking answers about her son she wasn't getting from the S.O., reached out to the so called, "Montgomery County Police Reporter" (shoe shine boy) who failed to report on it.  

    Text messages and evidence of deeper issues were obtained by reliable Sentinel sources leading to this article seeking answers.  Scott Engle declined the mother's request for help with, "What do you want me to do about it?" if the mother is to be believed. 

The texts reveal a connection to the critically injured man.

DO WE HAVE ANOTHER?

 Code of Criminal Procedures Art. 2.139 and Art 2.1395 both say that a law enforcement agency have just 30 days to report an officer involved shooting. So what happens when agencies surpass this time limit? Well Montgomery County Sheriff's office should know seeing as they have done it at least three times in the past once in 2016 that took a little over two months to report, once in 2017 that took them almost 2 months to report, and now twice in 2022 the first taking nearly three months to report and the second on 09-26-2022 that was reported on in the media but was only reported by us 5 months after the fact. At the beginning of this month Montgomery County Sheriffs were involved in another officer involved shooting. Now we are getting reports of another officer involved shooting that has not been reported by anyone. What we know is that Alexander James Harshbarger was shot three times (neck, chest, stomach) and is in ICU. Sources say it was an officer with Montgomery County and that is why there have been no reports on the shooting. The address that is listed as his arrest address is a business yet he was arrested for allegedly burglarizing a residence. So are they saying he was shot three times by a home owner and walked/crawled with three holes in him to where he was arrested? To us it leads credence to our sources. The booking sheet has been updated in the last 24hrs to say he has been arraigned and has a $30,000 bond but when his family called Elliott's Bail Bonds / AAAA Betterway Bail Bonds they were told that has not happened and that he still needs to go to court. The first roster was saved 02/16/2023 then the second on 02/22/2023 and the new one says it was done on the thirteenth but we know that on the sixteenth it was not in the system so maybe it takes longer in Montgomery County to update their systems than anywhere else in the state. Detective Bart would not comment on the case with us but has told the family that Alex is in a ICU trauma unit and that he was shot three times. 

APPALLING COMMENTS or "The attack continues"

Dear Ms. Richardson, I will address you first."AN EVENT"??    You call a high degree FELONY ASSAULT ON A CHILD, "an event"  That is about par with our own duly elected and you can quote me here, "Squad Commies of Color" in DC who call 911 an event where some people did something".  Is that all you got for that child Ms Richardson?  Is that all you got?  

      Now for YOU Ms. Scott.  You are, I understand , a regular substitute teacher for the Shepherd ISD so when you take it on yourself to speak for "Staff", we need to regard you as such.  In that capacity of public trust, 

    Your contention that there is no apology owed this child and this community by those responsible for "the event" is the same as saying the kid deserved to to be picked up by a grown man (and I use the term 'man' loosly) and body slammed onto a gym floor with enough force to break the wrist of the hand folded under his back.  You are a SICK PUPPY Yvette Scott.  Are you really that stupid or is your racist bigotry showing?  Neither answer bodes well for the future of our students  as long as you are teaching there.

These comments absolutely floored me.  Whitnie Richardson.  My research shows you were once an administrator for Shepherd ISD.  How embarassing for our community and the ISD that you could be so callous towaard a child.  Like momma, like daughter?   You condone a full grown male body slamming a kid and breaking bones in a school gym?  I don't even have to ask the question of you ladies  because you have removed all doubt.  Yes you are that stupid and the eubonics "DATS What TF They Get' exposes the racist motivation of these verbal attacks.  

   Were you aware Whitnie that Cuz Wyatt confused two kids with the same first name?  Wyatt slammed this little boy and it wasn't even the boy who admitted to the bullying already.  But that is beside the point.

CHANCE COLLIN S TAKES DIVE FOR MCCRAW

Head of the Texas Rangers, Chance Collins has taken a dive (retired) over UVALDE in a weak attempt to take the heat off of his long time boss, Steven McCraw, DPS Director.

   Collins, Sentinel readers may remember, is the ranger who "busted" fellow cop Christopher Lima for drug dealing in Woody Wallace's county, uniform and in a Trinity Co patrol vehicle.  Instead of catching Lima holding drugs, Collins intentionally did NOT stop Lima on the road and search his Trinity Co patrol vehicle AFTER SEEING HIM PICK UP DRUGS, nor did he execute a warrant at Lima's house.  Either would have resulted in a real bust based on the statements of the drug dealer Lima was buying from.   The PC statement said  he had made drops by Lima's mailbox in Polk Co.  Instead, Collins let Woody know he had to bust Lima and let the sheriff call Lima to come in ("and don't wear your uniform) to surrender to a limp "conspiracy to possess" charge.

    Collins is the same lead Ranger over Ryan 'the broom' Clendennon that both turned a blind eye to the crimes that Lee Hon continues to commit to this day.  Good riddance and too little too late to save McCraw.  The only reason McCraw has not resigned is a TOTAL LACK OF INTEGRITY.

UPDATE According to family, an inmate known to be a severe diabetic was denied his necessary medication to the point he became severely ill.  When he kept complaing about needing his medication, they claim he was maced in his cell and passed out before being taken to the hospital according to the same source.

    Chief Childers did respond to our request for information in a timely manner and has assured The Sentinel that the inmate in question was NOT maced in the jail, that there was NO use of force and that he was transferred to the hospital strictly for medical reasons.    Hippa precludes the release of any medical information but Chief Childers stated that the inmate was NOT denied any medical needs while in the jail.

MACING INCIDENT CLAIMED TO HAVE PUT INMATE IN HOSPITAL?

Reports of an inmate at the Polk Co Jail being maced Saturday have surfaced from more than one source.  We have been able to confirm that the inmate was hospitalized. 

    We reached out to Sheriff Lyons for a comment on the incident late yesterday and did receive a reply this morning.  The initial report was that the inmate was tazed but that was not the case.  Chief Childers is looking into the incident now that we sent a corrected request for a statement.

DEAR SENTINEL READERS.  LOOKS LIKE A BATTLE FOR MY LIFE . . . . LITERALLY.  i GAVE THAT AWAY A LONG TIME AGO.  SHHH  DON'T TELL THEM.

Texas Attorney General, Ken Paxton has once again ressurected Cause 39048 Liberty County and attempt to collect a debt that I long ago paid.  

Let me start out by saying that I am a patriot, I love this state, my county and Truth and Justice.  The chips will fall where they fall but I will weild The Truth at my only weapon all the way through this ordeal ahead of me.   I on't despise government but I do despise corruption.  If exposing that costs someone their standing in the community, among peers or elected office, it is on them, not me.

I do have the greatest respect for Ken Paxton and what he stands up for.  He stood behind out county when the Freedom From Religion suit was filed to take down our crosses.    Judge Faulkner will verify that I assured him that AG Ken Paxton would back him up the day the suit was filed.  My assurance was not based on conversation with Paxton but rather on his track record.  

SHERIFF CAPERS APPOINTED TO ASSOCIATION BOARD

San Jacinto County Sheriff Greg Capers was appointed to the Board of Directors of the Sheriffs’ Association of Texas at their 140th Annual Training Conference held in Grapevine, July 21-24, 2018. More than 1,500 participants were in attendance at the Gaylord Texan Resort and Convention Center where they heard outstanding speakers, had opportunities for significant and timely training sessions and visited more than 240 exhibits each showcasing some of the latest technology law enforcement has to offer.
Sheriff Capers has been the Sheriff of San Jacinto County since November 2014. He distinguishes himself in his county and throughout the State of Texas as he assumes this leadership role within the Sheriffs’ Association of Texas.
The Sheriffs’ Association of Texas is one of the oldest law enforcement associations in the nation. The Sheriffs of Texas met for the first time on August 14, 1874, just four years after San Jacinto County came into existence. They met in the courthouse in Corsicana, Navarro County, Texas where Sheriff Sul Ross of McLennan County called the meeting to order and later became a notable part of Texas history.
The Sheriffs of Texas began annual training at these conferences just a mere four years later in 1878. These training conferences today are the largest composite gathering of law enforcement officers in Texas. Sheriffs and other county and local law enforcement officers, both federal and state officers along with security personnel attend. In addition to the annual training conferences, the Association conducts training throughout the year for law enforcement officers. The Sheriffs’ Association of Texas serves as a liaison with federal, state, county and municipal agencies and associations to promote cooperation, training, education and more efficient services to the citizens of this great State of Texas.
