East Texas just seems like Western Appalachia

How do you not know where your property lines are???

I have no idea why the charge of Agg Assault was not filed and then I can see taking a plea of Deadly Conduct. I would have been all over the DA in this case and I would call directly and demand to know the case. We “the People” need to hold our prosecuting attorneys accountable and demand better

Exactly what I was thinking....

Wondering same myself.

And people wonder why I hate east tx

The punishment definitely didn't fit the crime.. It sounds like small town politics got involved.

What is 903?

Inquiring minds want to know….

I think it refers to a "questionable" area code thing in east Texas.

strangely we dont have pigs there, but we did sell the place this spring and bought a new place with Darton in oklahoma!

the guy we sold it to told me to keep using the place however i want, so all my stuff is still out there and weve been hunting it since then, just a bit more carefully lol. 140" deer 30mins from home for free is tough to pass up!

ironically, the husband is the preacher at a local church and local handyman. if i remember right, all she had was a theft charge from a long time ago.

and yes, the Lord was watching over me that day no doubt.

These were my thoughts, I think I would put the place up for sale! I couldn’t imagine sharing a fence line with the trailer park!

glad you are OK.

Glad it turned out ok for you op.
I grew up in east Texas and moved backed to retire close to my hometown I 2015. No doubt there are issues but myself personally have never experienced any of these events thank goodness. I have owned a second home there sine 99’ and my primary home is there now as mentioned and never had anything stolen. That being said it could happen anytime.

What town is this near?

My Mom & Step-Dad had a place just outside Harleton in the "903" - Lake Deerwood, just South of Lake of the Pines. There were always some "questionables" that lived around them and we always had concerns on whether the neighbor's house would blow up at some random time in the night! They both have since passed and I still have a step-brother that lives there. Definitely some rowdy types up that way, but mostly some darn good people.
