A police sergeant in Houston, Texas was shot dead Tuesday morning by a suspect who was in police custody just two days earlier, but was allowed to go free when the Democrat district attorney refused to press charges.
HPD Sergeant Harold Preston had been with the Houston Police Department for 41-years and was due to retire at the end of the year, according to the Montgomery County Police Reporter. The local pro-police paper is urging voters to oust the D.A., whose campaign for office was bankrolled by left-wing billionaire George Soros.

They need to start charging these DA's as accessories!

Beyond heartbreaking for the Preston family. May this fine police officer R.I.P.
Too bad they can’t sue this horrid DA into bankruptcy. I realize it won’t bring the former Sgt. back to life, but if it totally ruined the DA, and ruinS her permanently, it would be worth it.

FTA:
The Police Reporter stated that the carnage was “100% preventable.”
“The actions of Harris County DA Kim Ogg are inexcusable. While Mr. Manzano pulled the trigger, Kim Ogg put the gun in his hands. Her actions are directly responsible for the death of HPD Sergeant Harold Preston,” the paper said. “DA Ogg’s fate is in the hands of Harris County voters NOW. She is on the ballot today. Vote to keep your streets, your neighborhoods, your homes, and your family safe. Vote to keep the men and women of law enforcement from preventable perils. Vote to hold Kim Ogg responsible for HPD Sergeant Preston’s death.”
Left-wing billionaire George Soros made a half-million-dollar advertising buy on behalf Ogg Harris during the County district attorney’s race in 2016, according to the Houston Chronicle.
So the “Defund the Police” types like Biden/Harris are going to send psychologists on these calls?

I pray to see a gigantic uprising of good Houstonians about this totally preventable murder! I think we should expect Senators Cornyn and Cruz to be out there before the cameras.

I believe there is a little bit more to this story that should have been reported. The surviving officer was pulled to safety by an ex-gang member. He said he didn't see cops or color (I'm paraphrasing) just someone who was in danger. The officer was shot in the arm and had dropped his gun, he asked his rescuer if he had seen the gun. The man went back and retrieved it. This guy is a true hero.

D.A. Kim Ogg will probably use this event as a promotional during her next re election campaign. In fact, she should be on trial for murder.

Kim Ogg’s comments about the death of Sgt. Preston make me want to vomit. Insincerity drips from every word.
The comments by The Police Reporter posted by OP at #3, are spot on accurate. My heart is broken for the loss of life of this good man. His character is written all over his face and shines from his eyes in that photo of him. My heartfelt prayers for his family and friends. Prayers also for the people of Houston to honor his memory by voting that unconscionable Soros tool, Kim Ogg, out of office and replacing her with someone who cares as much for the rule of law as Sgt. Preston did. God bless and comfort all of those who loved him.

So many people are so disconnected, unaware and uncaring. Add in the disinformation and misinformation and people are voting for these DAs who turn loose criminals, and probably won't stop doing it until it is too late.
We are headed to being Venzuela, controlled by China.

A sneaky way to get away with murder....spend tons of money to get an immoral DA elected, knowing she'll let criminals back out into the streets, to shoot cops.

Re #5, cynical me says that story was published for a specific reason. When a longtime police sergeant is shot in the head multiple times by a repeat offender, during a domestic dispute call, there’s not much that can lighten up the situation, put a new spin on it. But they tried.

D.A. Kim Ogg is responsible for HPD Sergeant Preston’s death. A D.A. who doesn't apply the law is NOT a D.A. This amounts to manslaughter in my eyes.

The murdered police sergeant was a black man. Did his life matter?

Kim Ogg has been an utter disaster. Her department is losing ADAs by the dozens. No one wants to work for her. She repeatedly releases offenders with records. All anyone who voted for her knew about her was that she had a "D" by her name. Her campaign was not local...it was outsourced. She is bought and paid for by the lefts sugar daddies, and we can't get her out of town fast enough. Vote Mary Nan Huffman!
