Remember how I used to tell you stories about our sheriff in my county who was so old that he still owed Noah a dollar?  And all the weird things that happened when he had an idea?

Well, he finally retired and we doubled down on goofy by electing this guy – Troy Nehls.

Nehls don’t know much about law enforcement and even less about social media. And science, math, the English language, his colors …. pretty much everything.

His office sent out a press release yesterday all excited that they had discovered a mess of credit cards, social security cards, driver’s licenses and wallets at a local picture show theater.  The process of discovering these wallets and credit cards – no cash – seems a little sketchy on its own.  But, it’s what they did after they discovered them that takes the cake.

The Fort Bend Sheriff’s Office just sent a press release to news outlets all over Texas that revealed the credit card, checking account, Social Security, and driver’s license numbers of hundreds of people. You see, the email contained a photo of these items that were kept in a lost and found room at the Santikos Palladium theaters in Richmond.

A few seconds later, the Sheriff’s Office sent another email saying that, on second thought, maybe that wasn’t such a great idea.

Yeah well, they put it on Facebook, too, asking people to come forward if they know who owns any of these credit cards.

How hard could it be to read the name on a driver’s license and look that up person or go to their home?  I’m just saying ….

Thanks, Sheriff, for letting the entire world laugh at Reba Frontage’s, of 2019 Avenue G, Rosenberg, Texas’ driver’s license picture.

Thanks to Kyle for the heads up.
