Judicial Ethics Under Scrutiny: Judge Seth Jones and Sheriff Fullen

You can’t make this stuff up.

The Houston Chronicle published an investigative article about Galveston County Judge Seth Jones and Galveston County Sheriff Jimmy Fullen. Jones and Fullen are buddies. Jones donated to Fullen for his campaign. Fullen appeared in campaign videos for Jones. They pal around with each other. They probably go fishing together and attend local crawfish boils hosted by Commissioner Hank Dugie. Jones was Fullen’s best man. (ok. that’s not true but you get the idea. They are buds.)

So guess who the Judge is for Fullen’s lawsuit against the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement? Yep. Judge Seth Jones. (Background here) According to the article:

“Whenever you’re looking at judicial ethics, the first thing you want to decide is, does it pass the smell test?” Teachey said. “Most of the time, if it feels like it’s stinky, it probably isn’t appropriate for a judge.”

This stinks as bad as the garbage cans at the League City Park after Hank Dugie’s crawfish boil. (Seriously 3 days after the event the smell was horrible for those going to the dog park.) Jones should recuse himself in this trial. It just stinks. Lucky for Fullen Jones is a republican whose party has shredded law and order. They will do anything, pardon anyone, and look the other way for all MAGA republicans no matter what the crime is.

Fullen is in good hands.
