Because the voters of Harris County don't care about justice. They've been conditioned to think the police are their enemies while city hall and the district attorney's office hates law enforcement except when they need them. Harris County better wise up or Houston will soon be the next Detroit or Chicago.

Smells of a Dem DA and Dem judges not pursuing criminals that need to be charged properly by the DA’s office taken to trial and if guilty then judges should apply appropriate punishment term in jail rather than slaps on the wrist…

That’s what happens when you have Democrats running things.

Disgusting! Our country is turning into "crime pays". So sad.

We had a convict in the court I use to work in and he was a convicted sex offender and failed to register for 3 years. He continued to stay on probation and nothing else happened.

UNACCEPTABLE!!😡

Houston are you happy with these liberals yet ???

Wow

That Kim Ogg for you

If they did, those registration forms would have to start at the highest level of our government, it’s agencies, and work it’s way down from, National, state, county, city, and local governments. It would show how widespread this sick, evil perversion has gone.

Wow! I really wish Harris County would have woken up and voted you for DA, change needs to come.

I THINK IT GOES LIKE THIS. " IF YOU CLAIM YOU'RE DOING IT BECAUSE SOMEONE TOLD YOU TO, THEN NO CHARGES, AND YOU'RE SET FREE!!

Ms. Huffman, can you check why human traffickers get really short sentences. Thanks

This extremely uncalled for!!!!

Sanctuary city

Such evil

wow…. Democrat run cities truly showing their true colors and intentions….

Thank you OGG.

Sorry for your loss..🙏
Point the finger to these folks..the DA..the Prosecutor and the Judge…HPD is the only Agencies that are doing their job.

You're right HPD didn't fail her the Judges and ogg the HOGG did

Elections have consequences!!!

Harris county is blue

It’s HPD and other leadership that failed to grow and get funding and resources to deal with crime . It’s not just crime, it’s crime management that has also failed to keep up and speak out politically against those that haven’t supported the police to achieve safety goals. We need more police, faster prosecutions , and judges that punish the guilty. It’s the only way to turn the city around from the path that it’s on.

I know this goes against the grain but the gag order on police really should be lifted – it’s old and probably does more harm than good. But I wish they would just come out swinging politically at those holding the police back . Just my 2 cents .

Exactly, the police are the only part of the system that actually works, sorry for the families loss, but they need to educate themselves on who is responsible before making ridiculous accusations. Curious who she voted for, hate to say it, but the communities who need the most protection continue to vote for those who provide the least.

Could have happened to any of us, Grandma is right, we need all need to step up and be better witnesses, better people and hold other accountable to do the right thing. Houston keeps getting more dangerous, it's so sad because we love our city.

I agree with Houston Police Department. They didn't fail her, our system has. The Police get just as aggravated as we do when criminals get out of jail before their time is up, or just a slap on the wrist.

It’s funny I said to a citizen that when I retire in a couple years I’m moving to Costa Rica… she responded by saying is it safe there… as I stand in the middle of Acres Homes… Um..,Yes Costa Rica is safer than Harris County..let that sink in

Kim Ogg is to blame. HPD works tirelessly to get scum off the streets.

Thank you for putting that out there. Houston PD has nothing to do with that as you say it's elected officials that are letting the criminals go. HPD is understaffed and doing the best they can

Mary Nan Huffman, are you running for office again? I’ll support you, even though I do not live in Harris County. Maybe I should move there.

Im sure "detectives" do a better job in smaller towns. But IMO the problem in harris county is full circle from the police doing a shite job investigating to the DA giving murderers plea deals to the excuses you call a judge giving the murderers a very cheap bond
When someone you know is executed with a headshot and the "detective" beleives the murderers story that it was an accident lmk..harris county is a joke from the police to the DA to the judge that gives the murderers bonds

Our Harris County justice system is a joke!

So very sorry for your loss. My prayers to your family.

Ogg and liberal judges! Commissioner court! Not the police! There was another shooting at the same corner yesterday

It’s a shame that these clarifications have to be made, but thanks for doing so.

The idiotic DA and all her magistrates, HPD does put thugs in jail but they're usually released even before the officer is even done his paperwork.

It doesn't matter who is in office DA'S judges either you stay locked up or you get out!!

Liberal Democrat judges letting the criminals off the hook with slap on wrist with wet Noodle

It's the DA and the judges they vote in. Sadly at the end of of the day, the voters share part of the blame of those they voted into office.

Amen to that.

So sad

Houston is a democrat led war zone

🥺😢😠
