Bay Area Houston

Once again it’s Lowry.

Every day it is something new with La Marque City Councilman Joseph Lowry. You would think a grown ass man of 45 years, someone who served time in prison for drug possession, and eventually was able to start his own business and become an elected official would start acting like a grown ass man. One way to act like an adult is to pay your taxes like everyone else does.

It’s not like he doesn’t have the money as he bragged about it on Ch13 waving stack of money and crying fake tears. At that time, in October of 2024, he claimed his CPA had resolved the problem. A year later that doesn’t seem to be the case.

The Galveston County Tax Office has updated their delinquent tax records including the year 2025. According to the records Lowry’s business owes the county $24,113, $12,459 for 2024 and $11,653 for 2025. The County’s lawsuit against Lowry for over $43,000 has become inactive as posted earlier. I speculate the case will be refiled to add the 2025 taxes for a total over $53,000 but that is only speculation on my part.

“Ya’ll better do something.”

The La Marque Police Department, Galveston County DA, and the Sheriff were all put on notice at last night’s Council Meeting. A citizen of La Marque, Mr. Re’Chard Loftis, spoke during the public input portion of the meeting and it was NSFW. (Not Suitable For Work) Needless to say he was, in his words, “f***ing pissed off”. Take 3 minutes of your time and watch his comments here. They are disturbing to say the least.

He is pissed about being harassed by a member of City Council and warned LMPD Chief Aragon and County Law Enforcement of potential violence if they do not take action. Of course it was all about Lowry. Again. Lowry conveniently skipped the meeting and for good reason. What Mr. Loftis documented was fucking horrible.

Mr Loftis told Council that last Friday Lowry and his wife, Sarah, harassed his family while at dinner. It began with Sarah confronting his wife in the bathroom then they both continued the harassment at their table and then outside where Lowry, as usual, pulled out his iPhone 11 and began taping before driving off in his minivan. Mr. Loftis states that Lowry then posted a Facebook Live video attacking his family including his 4 year old grandson. It begs the question “Who the fuck does that?” and “How old are you? 12?”. Again, watch the video.

Mr. Loftis made it clear to Galveston County law enforcement that something had to be done about Lowry and his harassment of individuals. This is the second time they have been warned, first by Council Member Yancy during a press conference where, as expected, Lowry caused a disruption. Lowry has had numerous complaints filed against him with the police for harassment and yet no action has been taken. He has a number of lawsuits pending against him for harassment. His Facebook “Lowry News Network” page has been removed a number of times for harassment. He has a history of harassment in Washington resulting in a Domestic Violence Protection Order. The list of his harassment is documented here.

Mr. Loftis wasn’t the only person providing comments about the Chief. Others accused his office of racial profiling, mismanagement of funds, and not taking appropriate action. Some called for his resignation or Council firing him. The Chief’s job is under scrutiny as is the DA’s and the Sheriff. As Mr Loftis said “LMPD, Galveston County, ya’ll better do something!”.

You can watch the entire comments from the meeting here.

Note to the Mayor and other Council Members: Do yourself a favor and just ignore CM Joseph Lowry. Don’t feed into his stupidity and pettiness. Let him make his baseless allegations and move on.

Once again La Marque City Council Member Joseph Lowry gets put into his place on Facebook Live, Facebook Live! By now you would think he has had enough of the humiliation. The discussion was accepting the independent audit of the City’s financials. All but Lowry voted to accept it. As the acting City Manager stated the audit is required by State law, is about 178 pages long, and has no evidence of malfeasance, corruption, or anything unusual. Of course that didn’t stop Lowry from talking, once again, about a “forensic” audit.

Lowry has been spouting off about corruption, bribes, recorded phone calls, malfeasance, corruption, cabals, etc etc for years now without any evidence whatsoever. As the Mayor said “You are the only one saying this. Not the Police. Not the Sheriff. Not the District Attorney”. The Mayor, once again, told Lowry is he has evidence of cabal-ness he needs to bring to the Council so they can evaluate and take action including requesting a “forensic” audit. So far Lowry has squat. He is a one man clown show.

The second slap in the face was concerning limiting the rights of citizens to address the Council. Lowry claimed people were coming to complain about him. He had the gall to claim “It wasn’t like this in the past.” The Mayor slapped his fat ass by stating “The reason they are coming is because of you! You are the problem.” (not the exact words) Lowry wanted council to be more professional which was met with eye rolling and laughter.
