  • More than a dozen people are facing upgraded disaster-time charges in Harris County, District Attorney Kim Ogg tells KPRC 2, accused of targeting homes and businesses dealing with the aftermath of Hurricane Beryl.
    Speaking exclusively with KPRC 2′s Bryce Newberry, Ogg said additional enhanced charges are possible.
    “If you try and kick us while we’re down, we’re going to punch you back even harder,” Ogg said.

    A lot of people with no power are not home and are in family's house or hotels. Their homes are easy targets for these crooks.

    A lawsuit needs to happen because this is the craziest thing I have ever seen and experienced being here and we have been without power for 4 days feels like 4 years. And I'm from the Caribbean and we have a better planning system than this (depending on which island). This is wild and for them to say by Sunday they will have 80% of customers back online is even Wilder. The only way to get them to budge is if everyone sues them. One massive lawsuit by the 2 nearly 3 millions that have been without power, including the ones who have died by trees, heat and drowning. Seems to be the way of how America or Texas work, not forgetting guns seems to be a big talk here more than common sense.

      @Yelo_54 Před 25 dny

      What do guns have to do with it my brother. There are so many times more guns as well as people who’s sole job in life is to use that gun effectively in Washington, and Hollywood, and every Fortune 500 ceo in America but you have no problem with any those guns it seems. So obviously you have a problem with a culture that glorifies violence which is reasonable but you fail to realize that the mindset where violence equates to power and success is actually what is causing all the problems and the guns are merely imaginary for the screen.. The real issue is that guns mean the whole world to a person who is responsible for protecting his or her own life and by that alone is the right of no man to take from another man.

      @@Yelo_54 my guy read my sentence again. People here worry more about obtaining guns than they do using basic common sense. If it wasn't clear enough then read it again. Reason why I brought up guns again is that it seems easy for people to plan on how to obtain a gun whether that may be illegal or not versus planning effectively to avoid the lives and livelihood of others. Oh what I meant about livelihood u ask, well this hurricane and preparedness following before and afterwards showcases how it has affected not only businesses but those who are without jobs prior to this event.
