Montague County SO ‘Night Out’ activities

Published

on

Montague County Sheriff Marshall Thomas invites everyone to attend the third annual National Night Out event from 6-8 p.m. on Oct. 4 in Montague on the courthouse square.
National Night Out celebrates the police-community partnership and allows an opportunity for the groups to interact on a more personal level. Thomas said this will be a family event that includes a free meal of a chopped barbecue sandwich, chips and a drink. Activities will include an inflatable BB gun range, door prizes, a bounce house, face painting, free popcorn and more.
Thomas said he has been very pleased with the turnout during the first two years, even last year with COVID looming there was a good crowd.
“It is a way for my staff and the public to interact and meet each other in a different atmosphere. It also is a good educational event for younger kids to meet law enforcement and see we are not the bad guys,” explained the sheriff.
The Montague County Child Welfare Board and Crime Stoppers will be participating to provide information, along with fire departments and other law enforcement that are being invited. The SO also will have a table with information about job opportunities within its office.
“It has been pretty successful, even last year when the pandemic slowed things we had a good turnout. We hope for a good crowd because it is a good opportunity for law enforcement and the public to get together and talk, share ideas and they can see what we are all about,” concluded Thomas.

Former DA Hall remains in jail

Published

on

As of June 9 details on why an appeal bond was revoked on Casey Hall which prompted her arrest in Sulphur Springs on June 2 remain unclear.
The former 97th District Attorney was convicted of misapplication of fiduciary property and theft by a public servant on May 13 in the 16th District Court in Denton County.
The jury gave her a sentence of one year in state jail for misapplication of fiduciary property and six years probation for theft by a public servant.
The 38-year-old Hall was booked into the Hopkins County Jail on June 2 on a warrant after a Denton County judge revoked the appeal bond that was $10,000.
Hall filed her intent to appeal the conviction and sentence, so after posting a $10,000 bond, she was released on May 14 instead of beginning her sentence.
Denton County Court records indicated on June 2 Judge Sherry Shipman, who presided in the trial, declared Hall’s bond insufficient and a warrant was issued for her arrest.
There were rumors Hall may have opted to drop her appeal, but that information has not been confirmed through the court. As of June 9 Hall remained booked into the Hopkins County Jail.
