FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH MOVEMENT

Citizens of Covington, TX are living in fear of police accused of using their influence to operate a drug ring and arrest and terrorize citizens who speak out against their activities.

“They are scared to death now,” said Covington City Council member Marty Smith. “They lock their doors, they lock the car doors because they are scared of the police.”

Covington Police Chief Wade Laurence has emerged in the center of the accusations,WFAA.com reports.

“Wade Lawrence asked me what it was going to take to shut me up, and them to arrest me and handcuff me at a council meeting,” Smith said. “I’m 69 years old and I don’t need the hassle of it.”

WFAA spoke to former Covington police officer Kayla Richardson who said the trouble began one year ago when she discovered drugs missing from the police evidence locker. Police Chief Laurence was the only officer who didn’t take a lie detector test.

Richardson filed a report against the department with the Texas Rangers, but it was never investigated. When Chief Laurence discovered Richardson filed a report against him, she was fired.

Soon after, the arrests of her boyfriend and a former mayor were ordered. WFAA reports that Richardson’s boyfriend was charged with assault and the ex-mayor with credit card abuse. Both are saying the arrests were out of retaliation.

fountainofyouth:I live an hour away from the border, and it’s a reality: The government and state refuse to make marijuana decriminalized, non-medicinal, and completely illegal; Meanwhile the cartels that are moving and recruiting here in texas while making that billion in revenue they talked so much about in california. Cali got it easy cuz they cut into the cartels drug and traffic trade, but texas and arizona are fucked up. These conservatives don’t realize what they’re really doing to our state; Seeing our needs are different becuase we are miles away from a country at a civil and drug war. I think Politics knows the statistics of races and ethnicity in south texas and arizona. And I think they purposely keep pot illegal. Whether they get paid by the cartels/gangs, employ them or what, they know what they are doing. It’s genocide. Plain and simple. My car is the most likely thing to kill me, shortly followed by what I eat and drink. All because of oil. Got all sorts of shit in my water, my streets aren’t safe for shit, all because we got more oilfield eighteen wheelers making potholes and groves. People I know and love get cancer without even smoking, cuz 15 years ago we used to be able to see our street without a black haze. Texas is fucked up, but south texas is just plain fucked. All the trucks from the oil are dangerous, they kill at least 1 person a month, sometimes as high as 5. I know the true price of oil, and the pricks in washington are still trying to extend they’re tax evasion loopholes. Oil, Drugs, And Politics are the main things that will kill you here in Laredo Texas. Texas needs to make gambling legal, or medicinal pot, or even make emissions better; But like is said they know what they are doing, KILLING us without going to trial for murder. Doesn’t matter though, sooner or later us kids going to bring and new order..lol.
