Diversion Program Fail? Violent Recidivism | Houston News

A Harris County man accused of two brutal, back-to-back assaults—one near a dumpster, the other with a metal pipe at a donut shop—has a chilling history: his previous violent charge was dismissed just five months ago after he completed a mental health diversion program. Now, one victim is brain dead, another critically injured, while the suspect, with a long record of violence and court combative behavior, raises urgent questions about the effectiveness of diversion programs and whether they truly prevent future harm.

Unregistered E-Motorcycles on Campus | Houston News

Constable Mark Herman is sounding the alarm in Harris County, urging school districts to ban unregistered electric motorcycles from campuses before the school year starts—because these high-speed, unsafe vehicles are putting students at risk. Unlike legal e-bikes, these mini-motorcycles often lack registration, lights, and safety gear, and deputies are already seeing crashes involving teens. Districts like Cypress-Fairbanks and Klein are stepping up, partnering with law enforcement to educate students and parents. This push aims to keep kids safe and legally compliant as electric vehicles become more common on the roads. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
