Don’t say no to the judge

Last April, the Waller County District Attorney asked for the files of the special prosecutors in the Highway 6 landfill case. Those Fort Bend County prosecutors closed their investigation last year without calling a single county official to the grand jury.

That was before sworn testimony in the landfill civil trial. That was before a jury found commissioners violated transparency laws which have criminal penalties.

That is why Elton Mathis wanted to start a new investigation. The special prosecutors said no.

Now Dolcefino Consulting has learned the special prosecutors have been asked again to turn over their files, but this time a District Judge is asking.

In the letter to Fort Bend DA John Healy, Judge Buddy McCaig wrote the Waller County DA is back in charge.

“Please ask those gentlemen to return all such investigative and case files, the Fort Bend D.A. has already had months to make this happen and hasn’t,” says Wayne Dolcefino, President of Dolcefino Consulting. “You have to start wondering what they are afraid of. Are they protecting their shoddy investigation or something else?”

It is time for a real investigation. The people of Waller County deserve it. In recent days we have learned the 15-story garbage dump was going to be dug through two feet of precious ground water. That is the environmental disaster landfill opponents have been warning about for years.

We already knew some Waller County officials didn’t tell the truth about their dealings with garbage giant Green Group.

It is time to get to the real bottom of this deal.
