CONROE, Texas – Two former Willis Police Department officers were sentenced to one year in jail after being found guilty of two counts of tampering with a governmental record.
Kenneth Elmore and John McCaffery were each found guilty by a jury Friday.
What happened
On July 29, 2017, Elmore and McCaffery were officers with the Willis PD.
Authorities said they wrongfully used a stun gun to shock Kedric Kizzie, charged Kizzie with a crime he didn’t commit and then lied to cover up their illegal conduct.
The entire incident was recorded on video, but Elmore and McCaffery lied to the district attorney’s office, and also on the arrest, incident and use of force reports.
The lies were brought to light in December 2017. Kizzie’s charges were dropped shortly after the discovery.
Elmore and McCaffery were indicted in June 2018 on two counts of tampering with a governmental record and two counts of official oppression.
District attorney on verdict
“These defendants disregarded their oaths to protect, to serve and to tell the truth. They attacked Kedric Kizzie, charged him with a crime he didn’t commit, and lied to cover it up,” Montgomery County District Attorney Brett Ligon said. “This jury saw through their lies and convicted these defendants and in doing so protected the community by preventing them from being police officers. Justice was served for Mr. Kizzie, the community, and to all of the many good and honorable law enforcement officers in Montgomery County.”
After trial #PNC discovered a piece of evidence (a proof of mailing of the Notice of Acceleration to Mr. Howard) that had previously been unable to be located. PNC therefore moved for the admission of the additional evidence. (denied). – #ATTORNEY Mark D. Hopkins, BDF Hopkins Law

The basis of the Howards’ claim for wrongful foreclosure stems from #PNC ‘s ACCIDENTAL use of its pre-merger name within its Notice of Acceleration and the resulting Substitute Trustee’s Deed. – #ATTORNEY Mark D. Hopkins, BDF Hopkins Law Case 05-17-01484-CV, 5TH COA Dallas #Texas

We performed a detailed history of this case on our micro-blog at DBNTCO.COM. This is malicious theft on a time-barred debt.
BDF Hopkins Response Deemed Legally Incompetent by Burke in Reply in Support of Rule 59(e) Motion
If the law and Const. is applied correctly by an impartial judiciary who follow the rule of law it should have no difficulty vacating judgment
The Bounty Hunters, BDF Hopkins Response to Rule 59(e) Motion Re Burke
Burke v PHH Ocwen, Hopkins Law, PLLC, Mark Hopkins and Shelley Hopkins before Bent Judge Al Bennett, SDTX, Houston.
#ATTORNEY Mark D. Hopkins “found a piece of evidence” [never presented as evidence during the 4 yrs before bench trial] and moved the lower court to open up the record so he could file the “original wet ink note”(denied). Two high profile #Texas cases, same argument presented.

On reflection of @DeutscheBank v Burke, immediately after a bench trial with no evidence or witnesses, #ATTORNEY Mark D. Hopkins appeared insistently for the appeal and he conveniently and MIRACULOUSLY ALSO “found a piece of evidence”…LIKE the Howard v #PNC case in #Dallas
