A BLAST FROM THE PAST: CHAMBERS ANNOUNCES FOR SHERIFF

Special to El Rrun-Rrun

John ChambersAfter careful consideration and with great confidence I am announcing my Candidacy for Sheriff of Cameron County.

Cameron County is severely behind technologically yet has left tried and true community policing techniques buried beneath self-serving ideologies. 

Too many people have died at the hands of the current administration. 

Too many unjustified uses of force. Too many shootings. 

Too many victims left without proper investigations that lead to repeat victimization.

It is time to modernize, straighten, and restore the Integrity of the Cameron County Sheriff's department.

I humbly ask for your support, thoughts and Ideas and comments. Thank you! John Chambers.

(Ed.'s Note: In June, The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals reversed a lower court’s order upholding the former Indian Lake police chief’s conviction on 14 counts of tampering with governmental records.

The Court of Criminal Appeals remanded the case of  Chambers back to the 13th Court of Appeals.

A jury in the 103rd state District Court in January 2016 convicted Chambers after a trial on charges that he falsified government records by creating false entries regarding firearms qualifications for some of his unpaid reserve police officers on or about Jan. 13, 2015.

Chambers has claimed the charges were politically motivated to remove him as the GOP candidate after having won the Republican primary and being replaced by Victor Cortez, an investigator with the Cameron County District Attorneys's Office who then lost to Democrat incumbent Omar Lucio.)

The racism here in Cameron County raises its ugly head any time a non-Hispanic runs for public office. Seems like racism is a problem that, along with corruption, plagues the politics of Cameron County.

"Hating gringos is not racism"...I don't know who said that, but somebody must have, as many thousands down here think it.

John Chambers was convicted by a jury of his peers for tampering with government papers and still a conviction until the 13th Court makes their decision! Huh, lets not forget that Chambers security company guarded illegal 8 liners within the county. I believe that his company continues to guard these places outside of Cameron County? Huh, being an LEO and allowing your company to contribute to the illegal activity, is just down right criminal!
Chambers now throwing his hat into the ring is like that former DPS officer in Joe Cisneros who kept trying to run but only did so for the political contributions and knowing that he had no chance of really pulling it off!
