2023 Dallas Murders Up

2023 Dallas murders up against 2022 numbers, but Dallas Police Chief Eddie Garcia minimizes numbers in public comments.

Dallas suffered through 246 homicides in 2023, up from 214 in 2022.

The Dallas Police chief noted violent crime numbers are down, but ignored that Dallas police no longer take every report – including violent crimes.

Some note it appears the police chief is continuing a pattern of self congratulations for data victories while violent crime continues in Dallas.

Dallas police have chosen to ignore multiple calls throughout the year which has been an ongoing problem.

In addition to murders, car thefts were on significantly higher.

Since 2021, Dallas Police have limited the public access to real time crime data. It is unknown how many calls for service go unanswered because officers never respond.

The numbers are unsurprising for Dallasites paying attention. 2023 started with shootings across the city.

DMN Surprised By Pension

DMN surprised by pension mess they helped create with their electoral endorsements help in 2019 for current mayor, Eric Johnson.

Today’s oped brings another glimpse into the lack of reality that is the Dallas Morning News editorial team.

The morning PR post starts “First responders are there when we need them most. When someone calls 911, they are first on the scene…”

The ivory tower approach misses the regular concern of citizens who do not understand why officers do not respond.

They don’t respond for auto theft, burglary, and many other crimes – all of which is part of the current plan.

Exact crime figures are hard to know because Chief Garcia has gone out of his way to limit crime data for citizens and the media.

Meanwhile other city council members have gone along kicking the proverbial can down the road on pension funding.

The result is a $4 billion – with a B – shortfall, we reported on in August. The Dallas pension in crisis story is far from over.

DMN Surprised By Pension

Actuaries suggest the pension systems need an immediate infusion of $1.3B to stay afloat.

In August there was a suggestion for a half billion dollar pension obligation bond during city budget discussion.

These figures though require no promise of future fiscal sanity from the financial arsonists the newspaper continues to endorse.

Other Side Dallas expects voters will see a November ballot question to take on more debt while the city wastes funds on politically expedient projects.

Sunday Tragedy After Dallas Failure

Sunday tragedy after Dallas failure to protect its citizens in a domestic violence case causing a number of questions.

On Sunday, a man shot and killed his ex girlfriend, her parents, and their one year old son. That shooter is identified at Byron Carillo.

Carillo was not supposed to be near the family. However, he lived next door to the family.

Court records show Carrillo was arrested and charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. He then posted his $50,000 bond.

Carillo’s case has been passed for more than two years and he was out on bond.

However, he was arrested again in October, but somehow managed to get out of jail again. He then skipped a court hearing – another reason for his bond to be revoked.

Sunday Tragedy After Dallas Failure

Carillo was later cornered by police in Austin. There he took his own life.

Per the Dallas County District Attorney everyone was aware of he lived next door to his victims. The police, the DA, and the victims’ civil attorney all were aware Carillo lived next door.

It is believed the judge in the case should have known as well.

Similar cases in Dallas exist right now.

Jacoby Tatum is currently released on house arrest despite allegations of being involved with the Ali Elbanna murder.

Similarly, Teilor Johnson, is out of jail currently awaiting trial for the murder of Quincy Wyatt.

Pit Bull Attack

A pit bull attack leaves a Dallas woman and her puppy in need of emergency medical care after the Thanksgiving weekend.

Laura Hunt walks her dog regularly, but on November 27 it was dramatically different.

On Sunday, she and her six month old Aussie puppy, Bean, were brutally attacked.

The dog attack came from an alley and Hunt’s screams for help alerted neighbors to her emergency.

Hunt’s neighbors heard the screaming, grabbed a shovel and beat the pit bull until it stopped.

The pit bull that attacked Hunt and Bean was euthanized.

Hunt worries there may be others in her neighborhood.

Costs Of Pit Bull Attack

Bean’s medical bills are more than $6,000. The family’s GoFundMe for medical care can be found here.

Ten Car Break In

A ten car break in this weekend in the area of Forest and Abrams has more Dallas residents frustrated by non-response by Dallas Police.

Dallas Police for years have claimed to be underfunded after multiple attempts to defund the police. Now though it seems they just don’t respond at all.

Dallas moved to an online reporting system to avoid dispatching an officer, but these crimes appear to never be followed up on.

Dallas City Council seems more focused on virtue signaling on issues than tackling problems facing every day citizens.

Ten Car Break In

This vehicle break spree in is one of many incidents where vandals and/or petty thieves target Dallasites with crime.

This follows years of Dallas residents complaining Dallas police do not respond to issues including assaults against children.

Dallas Police have yet to respond to our request for comment.

Wrong Person Intentionally Arrested

Wrong person intentionally arrested according to new federal lawsuit describing unlawful police tactics by Dallas police.

Silvester Hayes alleges in a federal lawsuit that Dallas Police officers Walter Paul Guab, Holly Harris and eight others misidentified him. Per his lawsuit they then kicked, punched, and tased him.

They also dislocated his arm before realizing they had the wrong person.

Hayes was arrested during an October 2021 traffic stop after police misidentified him as another suspect. He was then forcefully detained after police did not verify his name versus another person with a warrant.

This happened just over a year after the George Floyd death.

Hayes Life Turned Upside Down

Hayes would lose his security job after the arrest and detention and would lose his children to his wife. In addition he was unable to make housing payments due to what some call willfull negligence.

Dallas officers are recorded on bodycams stating they realize he is the wrong Sylvester Hayes. They also appear to be conspiring to create a charge to jail him under.

Wrong Person Intentionally Arrested

This case come just over a month after Dallas paid $1M over the Tony Timpa case – similar in facts to George Floyd.

One of the officers in that incident, Dustin Dillard, was promoted to Senior Corporal. That position which provides front line field training to new officers.
