Texas Equusearch Says Cars Have Bodies

City of Houston Says They Won't Pay To Find Out

Houston, Texas - If the headline and byline seem ridiculous, the actions of Houston leaders appear outrageous.  After extensive searching, a private, non-profit, search organization says there are at least 130 cars in Houston Bayous and some of those cars may contain the bodies of missing persons.

Texas Equusearch has formed a public-private partnership with many law enforcement agencies. The organization uses high technology to find missing persons the cops are unable to find.  The organization worked on the Natalie Holloway search effort and has solved multiple high profile missing persons cases.

One of the techniques Equusearch uses is sonar which can identify sunken objects in murky water much faster than divers can through a physical search.  Unfortunately, perhaps, Texas Equusearch has been so successful at finding sunken vehicles in Houston Bayous, the City says it could not possibly afford to pull the vehicles from the mire.

Tim Miller, Texas Equusearch founder, wants Houston to use it's resources to recover suspicious sunken vehicles just like other cities use their resources to clear abandoned vehicles.  Miller and high ranking volunteers at Texas Equusearch are not afraid of controversy.

Last year, Miller waged a battle against the FAA after it imposed over-broad sanctions in the use of drones to search for missing people. Despite Texas Equusearch being a non-profit organization, the FAA decided the use of drones to search for people was a commercial venture.  Perhaps the FAA could use a page from the President Obama playbook in using prosecutorial discretion in the cases it asserts against non-profit organizations doing the job of government.

In a surprisingly arrogant response to news inquiries about why Houston is not interested in pulling discovered vehicles out of the murky depths, Houston police officer Victor Senties claims the department already knew about many of the vehicles.  A few years ago, Houston P.D. even searched a few of the wrecks.  But beyond that, Houston shows no interest in yanking vehicles from bayous.  They say it simply costs too much money.

Of course, the families of missing persons don't agree.  What is a police force supposed to do, if they can't be instrumental in the search for missing persons?  Little buffers community morale more than a police department which solves crimes.  To most families, there is no price too high to put an end to the suffering they face in not knowing what happened to a family member, spouse or child.  Tim Miller, supported by city council member Michael Kubosh, says some of those answers lie in the sunken remains of over 130 vehicles.

Meanwhile, in 2006, before red light cameras were installed on selected Houston intersections, the constabulary planned to spend the anticipated $6 million in fines on higher salaries for Houston officers. Texas ranks number 5 in the nation for handing out traffic citations.  While reporting a missing person is easy in Houston, finding the person is another part of police work altogether.  Houston is at risk of being more interested in fining red-light violators than it is in finding missing persons.

Dugger Parents Protected The Guilty, Trivialized The Innocent

Protection of Josh Dugger Allowed Molestation To Continue

On the face of it, the decision to protect one of your children from life changing felony charges for sexual molestation of "little girls" might be difficult.  By protecting one child, Jim Bob and Michelle Dugger assured a second event:  Little girls would continue to be at risk of future "inappropriate touching" by son Josh, the predator who has no conscience.

Years later, after the statute of limitations had passed for the prosecution of the crime of sexual molestation, as well as the crime of child endangerment for which Jim Bob and Michelle Dugger were likely guilty, all three of the Duggers moralized to a nation of Christians about the evils of pre-marital sex. They remained mostly quiet on the topic of child molestation, though.

The Duggers insist they are not mandatory reporters, a class of people including teachers, doctors and others of responsibility who MUST report molestation confessions.  While parents do not fall within this class, they do have a fundamental obligation to protect the true victims against sexual perpetrators.  The failure of the Duggers to appropriately inform the authorities meant their own daughters as well as a family friend would suffer at the hands of Josh Dugger.

Interestingly enough, the police officer, Joseph Hutchins, who the Duggers sought out to handle the investigation of Josh, is now serving a lengthy spell in prison for distribution of child pornography.  Hutchins now says Jim Bob told him Josh had only molested one little girl.  One has to wonder how many little girls it takes to be fingered in their most private parts in order for the authorities to take drastic action, but then, considering who was investigating this crime, perhaps the result was to be expected.

While it may be too late to prosecute Josh Dugger and his parents for the crimes they perpetrated against society, they will likely never earn the trust of broadcasters to parade their family in front of TV audiences as the moral example of what all families should be like.  In fact, the Duggers are one more in a line of television personalities who moralize to their audiences while committing private sins.

It is not too late for authorities to step in to protect the remaining minor Dugger children against thier parents who trivialize touching of childhood vaginas "over clothes" except on those occasions when the touching was directly with the innocence of our nation. There are 19 reasons and counting why these parents deserve to lose the right to parent their children.

This crime of robbing the innocence of defenseless children has sullied more than just the Dugger's "19 and counting".  After Fox News promised there would be no passes in the interview by their reporter, Megyn Kelly, by the end of the interview, it was clear the Duggers had chosen Kelly for the same reasons they had chosen officer Hutchins.  Clearly, the Duggers were looking for another pass, and Kelly gave it to them.

For years, Fox News has espoused the conservative line, while their reporters have given conservative personalities far more grace than they ever deserved.  Kelly's gentle nature allowed Jim Bob and Michelle to trivialize the sexual molestation of their own children so the Duggers could perpetuate their fame and fortune on a reality show.  The actions of the Dugger parents are as dirty and disgusting as Josh's nasty fingers...or at least a close second.  Thanks, Fox News!
