Police officers death maybe could have been prevented?
Montgomery County – Montgomery County deputy James Francis was indicted by a grand jury for the crash that killed his partner in 2024.
In February 2024, Francis and his colleague, Deputy Charles Rivette, were transporting a prisoner from Oklahoma to Montgomery County when the crash happened. A crash report indicates Francis “failed to control speed” when he crashed into an 18-wheeler.
The impact caused Francis’ county-issued SUV to roll over. Rivette, who worked for the sheriff’s office for 18 years, was flung from the passenger’s seat and run over by another vehicle. The initial collision sparked a chain reaction that eventually involved a total of five vehicles.
The crash report lists the posted speed limit as 75 miles per hour but doesn’t say how fast Francis was driving. The police did not do a drug and alcohol test on the deputy. That’s standard practice in Texas when someone is killed in an accident.
* I would think that an 18 year veteran would have told his partner to slow down or pay attention to the road?
* There’s doubt that the deputy was not wearing a seat belt. Buckle up!

So what does Texas Governor Greg Abbott do? He sends in 100 Texas DPS troopers in full riot gear and military fatigues to break up the protest.
When it comes to children the Texas DPS troopers are cowards when it comes to saving children. Put them in riot gear and they are ready to rush in and bust some heads open. Cowards!
“But what do you expect…. one AR-15 keeps 376 coward officers at bay.”

Uvalde police officers ‘exonerated’ for being cowards
UVALDE Texas – Families of children killed at Robb Elementary School walked out of a Uvalde City Council meeting Thursday as the city unveiled a report that recommended all Uvalde police officers be exonerated of wrongdoing in their response to the shooting.

The report recommends that each police officer should be “exonerated,” stating in most of their cases: “No evidence of serious acts of misconduct in direct violation of Uvalde Police Department’s policies was found in his behavior in response to the incident. I find that (this officer) acted in good faith.”
The meeting often erupted into frustrated screaming, the crowd chanting “coward” directed toward Prado as he left the room shortly after his remarks. Pressure from the crowd brought him back, in which he spent about an hour listening to families lambast his report.
