DPS trooper busted on steroid charge

[fed up in SA]

By Zeke MacCormack - Express-News A Department of Public Safety trooper based in Boerne was jailed Friday on a felony charge of delivery of a controlled substance.

A DPS press release said Trooper Jeffery Jerman, 33, was arrested after a month-long investigation into alleged steroid-dealing and was booked into the Kendall County Jail. He was released on a $15,000 bond.

“Everybody was shocked by it,” Kendall County Chief Deputy Matt King said of the arrest.

Jerman began working out of the sheriff's department offices there earlier his year, having previously worked in Kerrville.

DPS officials said Jerman, who worked for the agency for nine years, was suspended pending the resolution of the joint investigation by the agency's criminal investigation division, the Texas Rangers and the federal Drug Enforcement Administration.

DPS spokeswoman Tela Mange declined to discuss any details of the case, saying the investigation was ongoing.

A statement released by the agency quoted DPS Director Steven McCraw as saying, “The Department of Public Safety is made up of thousands of hard-working and honest commissioned officers and non-commissioned professionals.”

“Unfortunately, as with any large organization, isolated incidents occur when individuals violate their oath of office and run afoul of the law.“

One dealer arrested and no users? Who the fuck do they think they are kidding?

By Zeke MacCormack - Express-News Two brothers are no longer Kerrville police officers after a probe concluded they allegedly obtained steroids from Department of Public Safety Trooper Jeff Jerman, who was arrested last week on a charge of delivery of a controlled substance.

Kerrville City Manager Todd Parton said Patrolman Danny Sanchez was fired Friday, and Larry Sanchez resigned as a school resource officer on Thursday.

No prosecution is expected of the pair, who Parton said were suspended this week pending an internal investigation.

He said that inquiry indicated the brothers violated agency policy by allegedly buying steroids from Jerman, who was arrested at the Kendall County Sheriff's Department Sept. 11 and is free on $15,000 bond.

Court records allege Jerman, 33, sold $800 in steroids to “a cooperating individual” on Sept. 7 at a store in Kerrvlle.

Parton couldn't say how long the city had employed the Sanchezes, who couldn't be reached for comment.

Texas Ranger Wayne Matthews said the city's actions concerning the Sanchezes was “outside the scope” of his investigation of Jerman, who lives in Boerne.
