Clay Got COVID19

Clay Got COVID19 and his political foes wasted no time attacking him.

In a statement released Tuesday, Dallas County Judge said he tested for COVID19.

Political opponents like Barry Wernick came out immediately to wish Jenkins well. They also hoped he would take his own medicine and isolate.

Clay Got COVID19 – Ignoring Own Warnings

Four sources confirmed that Jenkins most recent routine did not include masks or social distancing.

Several of those sources believe Jenkins was isolating before the diagnosis given his recent work habits.

The same sources say Jenkins wanted to run for Governor. They say he has no fire to be Dallas County Judge anymore.

One county staffer said, “he is going through the motions, but isn’t there mentally anymore.”

COVID19 Stats

Cases are on the rise again though down from last year. Dallas County is currently on an “Extreme Caution” warning level.

At this time last year, Dallas County was exeriencing its highest infection rate totals since February 2021. In early August 2021, Dallas was experiencing 700 new cases per day. We are just over half that number now.

Mayor Eric Johnson was diagnosed with COVID19 in October 2021.

Locally, school protests at Dealey Montessori led to unmasked students in classrooms and brought a spike in cases there.

DFR Unable To Respond

DFR unable to respond to several incidents in the City of Dallas per the Dallas Firefighters Association Facebook page.

The page says Desoto, Duncanville, Cockrell Hill, Hutchins, and Lancaster fire units were required for a large grass fire. Dallas units did not respond and were out of service.

The comments follow a similar post just over two weeks ago referring to out of service engines in Dallas. That post prompted questions from City Council member Cara Mendelsohn who inquired about eleven reserve engines.

DFR Unable To Respond?

The reports of units out of service come shortly after the city reported responding to more incidents over July 4.

The City of Dallas has a consistent issue enforcing fireworks related nuissance crimes. Year after year Dallas Fire Rescue conducts public safety campaigns on fireworks. Year after year, fireworks are an issue.

USA Today Shoots Down Security Theater

USA Today shoots down security theater Dallas ISD is applying to the new school year.

In a Wednesday article, USA Today quoted security experts saying this was “theater.” They went on to say that this “funnels resources away from more effective approaches.” Dallas ISD did not respond to requests for comment.

USA Today Shoots Down Security Theater After DISD Decision

Dallas Independent School District mandated clear backpacks for students starting in grades six.

From the article: “It comes across as a knee-jerk reaction to make people feel as though something is being done,” said Jaclyn Schildkraut, associate professor of criminal justice at the State University of New York at Oswego. “But it’s really not going to do what people think it’s going to do, and it’s sending the wrong message.”

DISD says it will distribute free clear backpacks to students before the school year. DISD says the decision came from recommendations from an internal safety task force.

More Fires July 4 – Less Enforcement

More fires July 4, 2022 is the report of Jon Fortune, Assistant City Manager for Public Safety. The kicker is there was less enforcement by Dallas.

Fireworks are illegal in the city limits and up to 5,000 feet outside of them.

More Fires July 4 – The Data

Fortune’s memo covers the usual potpourri of cherry picked data. The fire department responded to more reported structure fires, alarms and other incidents. Compared to last year, DFR responded to more than five times as many incidents.

There were more dumpster and trash fires than a year ago, but the biggest increase was in grass fires. Fortune notes that “further analysis is warranted” to determine causation.

This year DFR and Dallas Police issued nine citations for illegal fireworks. They also seized nine hundred thirty-eight pounds of illehal fireworks. Last year, the departments issues thirteen citations. They also seized almost thirteen hundred pounds of fireworks in 2021.

There was also a house fire in the 400 block of N. Peak Street last year which caused a criminal investigation.

The bottom line is more fires July 4, 2022 than 2021, but less enforcement.

Dallas Sheriff Violates Rights

Dallas Sheriff violates rights of incarcerated individuals per Dallas criminal defense lawyers. Deputy sheriff’s are opening attorney letters to jailed clients. The information is legally privileged and jailers are not following procedure.

Elizabeth Lutton says deputies open all letters looking for contraband. They do so as a security measure.

Per other published reports, Lutton says “that’s only done in the presence of the inmate.” She states inspection is “limited to locating contraband or illegal items.”

Defense attorneys dispute this account though. Clients have reported their letters opened outside their presence. Lawyers contend some of these involve legal strategy and client’s guilt or innocence.

The Dallas sheriff’s office did not return a call asking for comment on how long the practice has taken place.

Dallas Sheriff Violates Rights – Again

Marian Brown’s tenure as sheriff could not be worse.

Under her management the jail she oversees fails state inspections more than once.

Deputy sheriff’s have not had appropriate support – particularly in responding to COVID19.

Finally, her staff stole more than $600,000 from inmate commisary funds.
