Disturbing stories about the continued neglect of Liberty County’s juvenile crime problem continue. The latest story zeroes in on perhaps the worst of what is becoming a shameful lack of attention to a very serious problem that is terrorizing some of our neighborhoods and encouraging juvenile delinquency.
Up to 50 class A and class B misdemeanors appear to be shelved by County Attorney Wes Hinch. We use the word “seem” because according to our sources, the juvenile probation department, local judges, and law enforcement are left out of the loop because of the assumption that any county attorney would process the juveniles and follow through with the cases.
Liberty Dispatch invites County Attorney Wes Hinch to clarify this issue and write in and let the people of this community know what he has done with these cases. Complaints persist about juveniles committing multiple crimes and bragging that there are no consequences. Ignoring young people’s disrespect for the law encourages a downward spiral of what might start out as a minor offense by a juvenile crying out for discipline. A county attorney ignoring or shelving such cases is unacceptable.
Frustration by law enforcement and people in areas in the county that have been affected continues. Law enforcement spending time and energy investigating cases and solving cases only to meet the juveniles they arrested back on the street again and finding out after the fact that there were no consequences to their previous act has to be a hair pulling event. Citizens instinctively realize that these juveniles will be emboldened by the inaction of the system and that the juveniles could become more dangerous.
Liberty Dispatch is encouraged by accounts that one of our local judges is trying to light a fire under Wes Hinch. Mr. Hinch is up for re-election this next cycle and is vulnerable in the Republican primary.

| WHATS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE? |
August 10, 2011
As the old saying goes, “A picture speaks a thousand words”…Folks, what’s wrong with this picture?
Mr. James Evans III, Attorney at Law among others will hold a hearing in the 75th Judicial District Court on Mr. Evan’s Motions to remove Mr. Joe Warren, First Assistant District Attorney from over seeing the prosecutions of the Defendants in the Cleveland Child Rape cases. The hearing will be on Friday August 12, 2011 at 9:30am before the Honorable Judge Morefield.
Mr. Warren is the prosecutor in charge of prosecuting all of the defendants in the Cleveland Child rape cases. These are the mug shots of the adult criminal line up. We have all heard about the Criminal Justice System supporting themselves by growing their own food, making their own clothing. But this is the “FIRST” time in Texas history where prisoners are providing their own “prosecutor.”
Liberty County DA, Mike Little, should be removed from office for his decision to keep Mr. Joe Warren on as First Assistant District Attorney. Additionally, undisclosed sources have informed The Outsiders that during the time Capt. Kelley was accused of wrong doings, (NOT OFFICIALLY CHARGED WITH AN OFFENSE) Mr. Mike Little stated he would not receive any charges offered by Capt. Kelley. Mike Little was joined by Mr. Wes Hinch our County Attorney stating he would not take any charges from Capt. Kelley and he should not be sent to his office, moreover he should be terminated because he is under investigation for wrong doings. However, no word has come from Mike Little or Wes Hinch regarding the removal of Joe Warren after he has been charged with crimes.
So, here’s the question folks, which one of the defendants in this line up is Joe Warren, the First Assistant District Attorney charged with the duty of prosecuting all of the other defendants in the line up? And, don’t the citizens of Liberty County deserve better?

GOVERNOR PERRY SAWS THE LIMB OFF
After years and years of public service and elected office, Rick Perry is very aware of the criticism Democrats and the liberal media consistently dish out to any Republican who uses the “J” word. Rick Perry openly talked about Jesus and prayed aloud in a football stadium full of over 30,000 fellow believers. But with all of the eyes of the nation watching, Rick Perry sawed the limb off in his national debut. Whatever positives and whatever negatives come with expressing a strong believe in the Bible and faith in Jesus Christ are now Rick Perry’s as he runs to replace Barack Obama as President of the United States.
"Father, our heart breaks for America," Perry said in 12 minutes of remarks that included prayer and Bible passages – but no direct mention of politics or his presidential plans. "We see discord at home. We see fear in the marketplace. We see anger in the halls of government and, as a nation; we have forgotten who made us, who protects us, who blesses us."
Undoubtedly, the Democrats will send out their messengers for tolerance and argue that the Christian prayer rally planned over a year ago indicates that a President Perry would treat all non-Christians as second class citizens. Of course, they will have very little proof that Perry has done any such thing as the Governor of Texas, but their intolerance of Christianity is rarely subdued when Christians dare to raise their heads and speak like many Presidents have in our history.
At a minimum Perry’s campaign has returned to the rhetoric of former Presidents like Washington over 200 years ago and Lincoln 150 years ago and now he will face the wrath of a secular media and a Democratic party that has many in it that look at Christianity as a crutch, Jesus Christ as a myth, and the Bible as a source for jokes.
Liberty Dispatch salutes Rick Perry and asks believers who read this site to pray for him and pray for America and the choices we have to make as a country in the coming days.

Two Burglaries - Many Victims
Over the course of this weekend, Deputies from the Liberty County Sheriff’s Office responded to 146 calls for service. Many of those calls were, thankfully, non-life threatening. However, sadly, some were life threatening, even involving the use of or the threat of use by firearms or other weapons.
However, after reviewing all of the reports turned in by Sheriff’s Deputies this weekend, two calls were profound enough to stand out and warrant the attention of all the citizens in Liberty County.
The first call, reported on Saturday July 31st Deputies responded to a Burglary of a Church. The Church targeted by these heartless criminals was the Tarkington Prairie Church of Christ, located on Highway 321 in Tarkington Prairie. The criminal(s) responsible for this crime stole two 4ton A/C units, forced entry through a back door, damaging the door and frame beyond repair entering into the Sanctuary. Once inside the suspect(s) removed the Church’s stereo equipment. Total estimate of loss by the parishioners has yet to be finalized, however, initial estimates are nearing several thousands of dollars.
The second call, reported on Saturday July 31st Deputies responded to yet another Burglary call. This time, the victims are the citizens of the North Liberty County region near the Woodpecker Volunteer Fire Department. According to reports, unknown suspect(s) knocked security cameras from the outside of the Fire Station off of the building and cut the telephone lines leading to the Fire Station. Forced entry was made into the Fire Station by breaking a window, damaging the frame of the window in the process. Undisclosed items were taken from the Fire Department. A complete inventory of equipment shall have to be completed to determine exactly what equipment was stolen and or damaged by the suspect(s). This crime is such a loss not only for the completely Volunteer Fire Department, it is also a tragedy for the entire community as this crime placed many citizens needlessly in danger by the damage and theft of life saving / firefighting equipment.
Both of these crimes are a reflection the rising call volume in our County. The call volume and criminal cases has surpassed projections for the busiest year on record for the LCSO. Projections were at approximately 25,000 calls for this year. However, as of present, the LCSO has already passed 20,000 calls for service with over 5 months left within this year. Over the last five years, this is an increase of over 12,000 calls for service, all the while, the LCSO has the exact same number of Deputies and Investigators as in 2007.
The Liberty County Sheriff’s Office is asking for anyone with information about these crimes to please call the LCSO at (936) 336-4500 or log onto our website www.libertytxsheriff.com go to the Crime Stopper Tip page. Either way, your identity shall remain anonymous. Only with the support and input from citizens can we truly impact criminal activity in Liberty County making our community a safer place for our families and friends.
