The Kerrville Daily Times ran a half page ad yesterday paid for by the Friends of Bob Waller for County Judge, about his opponent's old indictment for tampering with evidence. A local reporter called me yesterday and asked if I paid for the ad. The answer is no.
The indictment was part of the fallout from the Kerrville Slave Ranch/Ellerbrecht case, and I do cover it in my Kindle book, The Texas Slave Ranch - How a Degenerate Ranching Family Got Away With Murder, available on Amazon.com

Kerrville Police report more rapes, murders in 2013
Kerrville Daily Times 02/17/14
Figures recently released by the Kerrville Police Department indicate rapes, murders and robberies increased in 2013 compared to the year before, while the number of less serious assaults and property crimes remained fairly steady.
There were three murders last year and seven reported sexual assaults, according to data the city submits to the Texas Department of Public Safety and the FBI. That was three times the number of killings and more than three times the number of rapes reported the previous year. There were two additional killings reported near Kerrville last year — in Harper and Ingram — and criminal charges are pending in those cases.
