Looks like the Texas Rangers are calling it a bad shoot:

The dead man's family says there is video that the Chief was not happy to see. Hearsay says Wolfe City PD had 3 officers and a $119k annual budget, to answer my previous question about why such a small town had a PD at all. Edit: forgot to mention that the situation and the vigil last night got a lot of coverage in the GD Riot thread. |

Seems like small communities, regardless of population, have a right to fund a local P.D. if they are not satisfied with what the county can offer. It's called local control.

Considering Wolfe City is not even in Collin County, is the officer being held there?

Anybody have any updates or intel on upcoming stuff? |

I'm going to use the Q word. Been relatively quiet this week. Has the word spread, democrats are afraid the moderate dems won't come to the polls if there's riots and looting afoot?
Even the shingle mountain protest last Monday was pretty weak. They made a deal with one of the constables to dump everything in a dumpster. They came with about a dozen potato sacks with maybe 10lbs of shingles. |

Don't go to Downtown Dallas or Deep Ellum. Don't go there. Don't drive through that area. Don't conduct business there.

This is a nightly occurrence, especially on weekends. Lower Greenville is about as close to downtown as we go. The Kessler is starting live music up again but I'm not comfortable there because of the parking situation. |

I was on the phone with our DPD neighborhood officer this morning. I still believe it's pay for play and there are protected operations. |

Property crimes, UUMV and car breakins are super high right now. It's all sliding backwards in a very bad way. View Quote A few weeks ago, 310 was closed, blocked off by police. My dad went out to talk to the officers to find out what was going on. He was told some pimp threw his girl out of the car and ran over her repeatedly on the highway sometime in the early morning. Dad said the cop seemed visibly upset, so something obviously gruesome took place. I never found a news story to back it up. Even had a friend of mine, whose wife is a producer for a local station inquire about it. Nothing. Crickets. The usual suspects? Or another enterprise that generates enough cash to keep everyone greased? I dunno. I've had other people mention to me about prostitutes running out of that area, one specific motel. I don't know, I don't worry about the prostitutes as much as everything else. I see a lot of activity in that Fruitdale neighborhood, it's nothing to jump a fence, bust a window out of a car and take whatever you want. Fences mean zero. I've tried finding a place I feel semi-comfortable to walk into and buy a Dr Pepper. Ain't found it yet. Drive to Hutchins. |

View Quote I have it on both ends, but they aren’t cutting the transmission row this time. They butchered that 5 years ago. They are cutting across the front where I have 3 phase coming in. One white oak is going to need to be trimmed substantially, but I don’t want it stumped. Damn tree is probably older than the power line. There’s another white oak that might see a little trim and a black walnut limb that we were looking at cutting anyway. But I’ve lost way too many trees this year. I had a monster white oak die that I’m going to have to hire out removal and another huge pecan that got uprooted in a storm. |

Release from Downtown Dallas Inc about plans for election day:
October 28, 2020 DDI Members: DDI is working closely with law enforcement, private security directors and neighborhood partners to prepare for potential unrest tied to the national election. We are unaware of any credible threats and local officials predict a peaceful election in Dallas. DDI will deliver accurate, real-time information and advocate for the highest levels of safety for all in our community. I am sharing with you an overview of information and guidance we have to date*: •The Dallas Police Department is working with state, local and federal partners to support election site security and accessibility. •All sworn Dallas Police personnel will be required to be in uniform and maintain a constant state of equipment readiness during the election period in case the need for an immediate response emerges. Response and Mobile Field Force Teams have been identified and are refining their training. •The City of Dallas will activate the Emergency Operations Center (EOC). •As a supplemental resource, we will increase the number of DDI Security officers per shift before, during and after Election Day and will be in constant contact with law enforcement. We will also continue the enhanced ENP (off-duty Dallas Police) program implemented last month and the DDI Clean Team will operate at maximum staffing. •DDI will also continue providing real-time emergency response alerts via the DERT (Downtown Emergency Response Team) system, social media and emails, and collaborating with neighborhood and district organizations in and around Downtown. Please continue to utilize our dispatch at 214-741-1151 or the See Say Now app (on Android and iPhone) to report safety or maintenance issues to our field teams. •If you are implementing preparedness strategies for your building/property, please share those plans with Martin Cramer, [email protected], so we can best coordinate all of our resources. Many of you are understandably concerned about protecting your property, businesses, and employees. We encourage you to remain attuned to accurate information and have resources ready for activation. We do not want to create a perception of an "unsafe Downtown" by prematurely boarding or barricading property. We have worked so hard to reopen Downtown, maintain confidence in the market, ensure safety for our community, and allow the heart of our city to be the epicenter of peaceful public discourse for all. We can all continue to cultivate a positive environment. To that end, you may have seen DDI’s recent “We Are Downtown” campaign, including pole banners, window graphics, and social media promotion, encouraging support of our businesses and inspiring community pride. Additional window graphics and signage are in production as we speak. We encourage you to work with our team to help spread this message. All DDI management will continue to be active 24/7, communicating with law enforcement and private security, and remaining available to answer stakeholder calls immediately. We can’t predict the future, but we can influence the outcome by being alert, prepared, and positive. Thank you for your continued dedication to Downtown Dallas. Together, We are Downtown. Sincerely, Kourtny Garrett President & CEO Downtown Dallas, Inc. View Quote |

I expect to see something new. Maybe not downtown even. A distraction move? What new plays do you expect to see? I've already seen a rumor that all the car guys will be out Halloween night with the typical street blockages and racing and whatnot. It could also be a probe to see how the local police will respond. 200 national guard won't be worth shit if they are all downtown and unarmed and say something goes on at Northpark or SMU or Lakewood. Especially if DPD has been told to stand around with their hands in their pockets. Be ready for the unexpected. |

New update from DDI. Carefully trying to stay woke while realizing their business owner clientele have different interests. Bold text is in the original.
As an update to our message from October 28th about this week's public safety plans and preparations, we have provided additional information below to ensure you have the most up-to-date information. The Dallas Fusion Center, Joint Terrorism Task Force, and the Dallas Police Department Intelligence Unit, in partnership with the Texas Department of Public Safety and federal partners, are in contact with each other around the clock as they monitor all intelligence streams for possible threats to our region. Significant operational planning has been conducted to account for potential unrest, as well as to ensure DPD is positioned to support a safe environment for those wishing to express their First Amendment Rights. At this time, the intelligence community is unaware of any threats to the region, including the central business district. Many of you are understandably concerned about protecting your property, businesses, and employees. We encourage you to remain attuned to accurate information and have resources ready for activation. We do not want to create a perception of an "unsafe Downtown" by prematurely boarding or barricading property. We have worked so hard to reopen Downtown, maintain confidence in the market, ensure safety for our community, and allow the heart of our city to be the epicenter of peaceful public discourse for all. We can all continue to cultivate a positive environment. We will reach out IMMEDIATELY if we become aware of any threats or changes to known events. View Quote |
