There they go again... Predictably, the local Democratic Party has come to a crossroads on one of their many crises. Liberty County Democratic Party Chairman Nancy Archer called a press conference Saturday and announced that she was "not" going to declare Ken Morrison ineligible despite several efforts including a letter from Liberty County, Judge Phil Fitzgerald stating Morrison was not a resident of the county and that time was running out if Chairman Archer wanted to give Liberty County voters a viable option.
In the attached documents readers can see very clearly that Judge Fitzgerald was very businesslike and lacked any tone of vindictiveness in what appears to be his effort to avoid further embarrassment for Chairman Archer and the Democratic Party. In response, Chairman Archer took a cheap shot at Fitzgerald for initiating action for removal of the candidate running for the office he sought and lost in the primary. She did that by assuming when Fitzgerald pointed out that she should appoint a replacement after removing Morrison that he was talking about himself. Even in her angry response to Fitzgerald she admits he never mentioned the idea he was interested in being the replacement candidate. Nevertheless, according to her own press release, the Chairman rebuffed or ignored Fitzgerald at every turn.
Local Circus Show Avoided...
08/20/10- With Liberty County District Attorney, Michael Little present at the Press Conference in Beaumont, Texas called by US Attorney-
John Malcolm Bales stated:
"Promising to shatter the Aryan Brotherhood of Texas (ABT), Acting US Attorney John Malcolm Bales of the Eastern District of Texas said at a press conference on Friday, August 20, in Beaumont, that law enforcement officers “will not rest until [they] have brought to justice every criminal segment” of the white supremacist group.
Bales’ pledge followed an announcement that two people have been indicted on federal charges of racketeering and crimes related to the October 12, 2008 execution-style murder of Scott Freeman, whose body was found beside a lonely stretch of FM 787 east of Cleveland. He had been shot six times at close range by a .45 caliber pistol."

Liberty Dispatch has learned the honorable US Attorney, John Malcolm Bales has taken the criminal prosecution of alleged Arian Brotherhood member, Steven Walter Cooke and another reputed member away from Liberty County DA, Mike Little. Because of Liberty County District Attorney, Michael Little's controversial alleged political retaliations, official misconduct and other questionable activities, the US Attorney has chosen to take the case away from Mike Little's office.
Liberty Dispatch applauds the action of the Eastern District, US Attorney's office in keeping the constitutional and responsible due process observed, something which would not happen in Liberty County Texas.
Even the US Attorney's office understands the corruption which permeates throughout the Liberty County District Attorney's office.
Thank you to the Honorable US Attorney, John Malcolm Bales for saving Liberty County Texas from the circus show which would have surely occurred if Mike Little would have been allowed to prosecute this case.

D.A.’s Secretary Retires – Or Does She?
The other day a good friend was trying to encourage several of us that Liberty County was changing and that politicians could no longer be certain that whoever the Democratic Party put on the ballot would be elected here. “Liberty County is tired of the liberals in Austin and Washington and all of their crazy ideas and they have begun to question why they should help those politicians by backing the local Democrats.”
Of course that is music to many of our ears but my friend offered more analysis. Part of the evidence the friend offered was that Durlene Davis no longer worked in the District Attorney’s office. Durlene Davis is infamous inside Republican circles for being the power-broker for the Cleveland area. She was on the county payroll for years and years under District Attorney Mike Little. If memory serves me correctly, she was the subject of a complaint filed by Will Cox or someone poll watching for him in 1994. In that complaint, Davis was accused of violating the rules that protect the integrity of an election in a polling place.

PART FOUR: Rusty Hight, the "Sex Offender Judge"
It is Wednesday today, the day when most of the crowds of regular folks are not in the 75th District Court to hear what deals Judge C.T. "Rusty" Hight maybe cutting with convicted criminals. What an appropriate day for the second installment on the story about one of the cases Judge Hight does NOT want voters to hear.
Here it is:
As rare and inexcusable as it is for a judge to declare judicial clemency to anyone, much less someone who is a sex offender, I can hear those who plan on voting for C.T. “Rusty” Hight no matter what facts are revealed about his tenure as the 75th District Court Judge. They will ignore Rusty’s past history of cheating and changing documents to win a custody case when he was an attorney and other things they have heard. They will immediately assume “there must be a good reason”. The reason I feel confident some people will be like this is because I tend to be that way. But for those open-minded people who choose to think the best unless something is proven otherwise, please note that what you are about to read about how Hight handled this case is much worse than just a simple but rare declaration of clemency.
The 75th District Court docket in the criminal case State of Texas vs. Jose Gregory Moore indicates the defense plea was nolo contendere and he was found guilty and given ten years probation by the then 75th District Court Judge Zeke Zbranek. The criminal docket indicates that the court was made aware that in about the sixth year of Jose Gregory Moore’s probation for indecency with a child by contact (January 14, 2000 is the date noted), Moore was working in a Houston Sport’s Club and the Houston Police Department filed a report that a complaint was filed by a woman claiming he “fondled” her.
So what does all this have to do with Rusty Hight? Is it scandalous that Hight’s brother-in-law gave such a light sentence in light of Jose Gregory Moore’s past? Is that the point being made?
First point… The Zbranek family and Hight have been proud standard bearers for the Democratic Party and the type of liberalism that is infamous for going easy on criminals. But the idea that judicial clemency is rare and that it is even rarer to see it applied to a sex offender who pleaded guilty makes it seem almost unfathomable to think that any Judge in this country would give clemency and wipe the slate clean of someone who PLEAD GUILTY AND ALSO HAD A CRIMINAL COMPLAINT FILED AGAINST HIM WHILE HE WAS ON PAROLE!
Next point… On March 22, 2004 Hight signed the Order of Discharge for this sexual predator, Moore and October 30, 2006 Hight signed Cause #F20239 which granted Moore’s motion to terminate community supervision and set aside the conviction. Hight allowed Moore to withdraw his plea and he was “released from all penalties and disabilities resulting from his conviction.”
Effectively a one two punch by Zeke Zbranek and Carol “Rusty” Hight. A one two punch on/at the people of Liberty County. The origiginal sentence was too light. And , rather than revoke probation, the violation of probation seems to have been ignored and Jose Gregory Moore seems to have gotten special treatment.
This case and C.T. “Rusty” Hight’s behavior has an even more bizarre twist and in it we will expose as we continue to tell the story of what some may call… “The Sex Offender’s Judge”.
Another question in this series, where was Liberty County District Attorney, Mike Little in all this? Why wasn't Mike Little protecting the people of Liberty County and the State of Texas? The same careless disregard for the very people who voted him and Hight into office.
This thing whole story gets even better, or should we say- gets a great deal worse.
Stay tuned.

DAY164: WHITE HIDES FROM PRESIDENT AND HIS OWN TAX RETURNS
Wednesday August 18th is Day 164 of liberal trial lawyer and Democratic nominee for Governor Bill White refusing to release his taxes from his years in public service.
Mayor White could you please tell voters the advantage of electing a Democrat like you that hid from the Democratic President when he was in Texas for three days? Shouldn’t you, instead of Governor Perry, been at the airport to ask for more federal resources on the border?
Shouldn’t you have been there to ask him to change his mind on sponsoring the Muslim Imam as an ambassador of understanding to the Muslim world – you know the one, the Imam who wants a mosque right there near the site of the 9-11 tragedy?
Mayor, why didn’t you show up and give the President one of those conservative stop the crazy spending binges you try not to associate yourself with? You know the stuff where yiou say you weren’t for a particular version of Obamacare?
Mayor White, if you really are one of us, why didn’t you stand up for us those three days?

Day 163: White Still Hiding Taxes
Tuesday August 17th is Day 163 of liberal trial lawyer and Democratic nominee for Governor Bill White refusing to release his taxes from his years in public service.
White’s refusal has many of us asking “why”. Why would any political candidate with as much money as Bill White spend so much of it attacking someone who is an open book on a matter that is so well known? The Governor’s mansion is under repair because some criminal tried to burn it to the ground. Meanwhile, the Governor of Texas is living in a nice big house until the repairs are made. Scandal? White has spent mega bucks acting like this is why you and I ought to vote for him.

C. T. "Rusty" HIGHT: THE SEX OFFENDERS JUDGE?
Just as Judge Roy Bean became known to some as "the hanging judge", recent events may cause some to consider local District Judge C.T. "Rusty" Hight "the sex offenders' judge". As Liberty Dispatch has said, before deciding who to vote for in the November race for District Judge, it would be helpful to consider the “experience” that current Judge C. T. “Rusty” Hight is NOT touting as the reason to vote for him.
Rather than review one of the cases that we had intended to cover and that Judge Hight is NOT discussing on the political trail, it has been called to our attention that a community not too far from Liberty County is currently suffering from one of Judge Hight’s “rare” rulings – so we will begin by reviewing that ruling in this article.
