    Y'all all knew this was happening without an investigation and you did nothing. The same with HISD and the airport.

    Ok. Good . But this is a small fish. Now how about investgating the former mayor Turner giving his brother millions in city contracts. 🤷🏽‍♂️

    Congratulations to Amy Davis for staying on top of this investigation. Sincerely hope that this investigation, as well as any other investigation, reaches all the way to the top!! The people of Houston deserve to see that all responsible parties are held accountable for their actions.

    I wonder if anybody has looked at S. Turner while he was mayor.

    • @celloman78

      He knew when to dip out.

      Native here: Turner destroyed what precious little was left of "old Houston". Just wait until the development scams under his watch start pouring out into the public.. it's coming!

  • @Deneteus
    @Deneteus Před 27 dny +15

    These are federal crimes. Why are they hitting them with only state charges?

    • @markinman8156
      @markinman8156 Před 24 dny

      the feds can get involved, but generally the discussions start with the state and they will let that scene play out first.

    • @iMatti00
      @iMatti00 Před 23 dny

      If the state will actually take care of it then that’s all that needs to be done. FBI is only the size of the New York City Police Department and they have to investigate everywhere in the country. Plus there’s a lot of other things that they investigate that only they are allowed to. And that doesn’t even get into the non-criminal matters that deal with espionage prevention.

    Lina Hidalgo needs to be indicted

  • @janemm1567
    @janemm1567 Před 27 dny +17

    Seems just small potatoes or tip of the iceberg. What about Houston Airport system and HCTRA cases? The HISD principal? The Harris County judge?

    • @user-xq2nv4fy6x
      @user-xq2nv4fy6x Před 27 dny +6

      I agree, turner and hidalgo for sure need to be indicted

    • @Deneteus
      @Deneteus Před 27 dny

      They stole all of the HCTRA money using a loophole and Channel 13 investigated and they did nothing.

    • @iMatti00
      @iMatti00 Před 23 dny

      I hate how Texas calls it a county judge. I wish they would just call it a county mayor or a county executive. Judges are supposed to make decisions based on the law, but an executive/mayor makes more discretionary decisions based on what they feel is best for the direction of their departments.

  • @hopekadenge3741
    @hopekadenge3741 Před 26 dny +5

    Small potatoes. Go check out who lives in the subsided housing? Owners/Parents of very wealthy restaurants owners. Housing authority needs a major shakeup. Why is it that only certain immigrants do 90% of all house, and road construction? Where are the raids? More investigations are needed. You need to know someone inside the system to get contracts, in cleaning schools and offices. More investigations please

    • @wisdomsleuth77777
      @wisdomsleuth77777 Před 25 dny

      Oh because you think this generation of kids is going to harvest your food and do construction out in the sun they'd have to put their phones down but you're too busy blaming teachers for the reasons they know about Furby while completely kidding yourself about that $3,000 iPhone you bought to babysit them turn them into anti-social freaks that have access to all sorts of crazy stuff. China's laughing all the way to the bank. And you remember shipping ports were containers by the hundreds of thousands come in unchecked every single day and your concerned with migrants at the border all while bitching about a five-dollar tomato. Seems like you forgot how life works. Billionaires got tax cuts trickle down was just a slap in the face to the people at the bottom😅

    I think that these city leaders are missing something completely.....this was NOT exposed internally, this was exposed by excellent journalism . this is the type of reporting that needs to continue. Go get em tiger

    • @iMatti00
      @iMatti00 Před 23 dny

      📰 ~ This is why the news media is very important. Even when certain officials and government and business hate the news media, because they don’t want their dirty laundry being aired out. If someone complements the media, investigate them. If they push back against the media, investigate them even more. And if they scream and holler about how horrible the media is, then triple down on the investigation.b

  • @dorothyallen3614

    Please do audits on Harris County Tolls Road, why we still pay to foreigner for tolls fees over 30+ years. Tolls Roads should be return to Harris County after 20 years of collecting toll fees.

    As Americans i say we vote with our facts and intellagence the best for all not just self. We all know how much we all are struggling and those bless with comforts should feel a sence of responsability to help raise the communities that made us the agencies that supported us the costomers that keep it possable for ine increase. When we let our country down and only think about how we live and not try to make opertunities for growth around us to grow and continue to gain employments possabilities and support. Returning costomers and other networking connections is how economy grows and stay able.
