Hard to believe that a DPS officer was involved. They are usually better than that.

Horse racing is a big draw to Mexican drug types and they buy horse to hide money. Good chance to see big money ties to cartels behind this.

If we look at the root source of the problem, it’s probably a pool table in the community.

the next thing ya know,
Your son is playin’ for money
In a pinch-back suit.
And list’nin to some big out-a-town Jasper
Hearin’ him tell about horse-race gamblin’.
Not a wholesome trottin’ race, no!
But a race where they set down right on the horse!
Like to see some stuck-up jockey’boy
Sittin’ on Dan Patch? Make your blood boil?
Well, I should say.

Like when when they force women to submit to body cavity searches on public roads?
