ABC13 spoke with a Fort Bend Co. constable who said he's re-evaluating his volunteer program after one of his advisors abused a non-deputy ranking badge and posed as an officer.
Only ABC13 spoke with a Fort Bend County constable whose unpaid, volunteer advisor flashed a badge given by the constable while attempting to impersonate an officer.A well-known political operative in Fort Bend County is sitting in the county jail on Monday evening for being accused of impersonating an officer.
"He's a friend," Shike said. "I consider everybody a friend. Everybody's entitled to due process, and everyone is innocent until proven guilty." However, over the weekend, Fort Bend County sheriff's deputies were called to the 700 block of Dulles, the apartment where Moore lives. Records show Moore had confronted a tow truck driver working in the complex.
"My deputy got out there, showed the ID again, and he noticed on the ID that it wasn't an officer, but the wrecker driver said he was impersonating an officer."The incident has spotlighted various non-law enforcement badges that are sometimes handed out by law enforcement agencies, often to civilian volunteers and friends of the agency.
