In talking about his indictment, Mayor Darryl Humphrey addressed what happened and what is being done to prevent this from taking place again.
Kendleton Mayor Darryl Humphrey was indicted for a public records request. Now he's setting the record straight about what happened.Darryl Humphrey is accused of failing to comply with an open records request in 2021, which reportedly involved a request by the owner of an RV park who wanted city documents. The Fort Bend County District Attorney investigated the claim, and Humphrey was indicted back in December.
Humphrey said this was the first time something like this has ever happened. When asked about how things got to this point, he said it was a lack of communication. "I can speak to the citizens of Kendleton, they know me, and they know how long I've been there. Roots from the beginning, my great-grandfather was first there when the first freed slaves settled there," Humphrey said. "I'm there not because of trying to obtain any kind of goal for myself, it's just help the city of Kendleton and the things that I know that's needed there in the city of Kendleton.
