Ogg won her District Attorney race in 2016 because she took advantage of an evidence scandal in Houston that became known late in the race. Now it's her turn to face a scandal late in her race.

I would like to believe that, but I have seen only one media article which mentioned that Ogg ordered the return of guns and ammo to the killer.

How can the DA turn someone over to ICE? She doesn’t have custody over anyone. That’s the Sheriff.

They didn’t give him a gun. He didn’t have a gun on him when he was arrested. He had ammo, which they returned to him because they had no legal basis not to.

ICE Issues Detainer on Illegal Alien Felon Arrested in Shootings of Two Houston Police Officers

https://ussanews.com/News1/2020/10/21/ice-issues-detainer-on-illegal-alien-felon-arrested-in-shootings-of-two-houston-police-officers/

A man arrested in the shootings of two Houston, Texas police officers- one of whom has died- is an illegal alien.

Breitbart Texas reported that Immigration and Customs Enforcement issued a detainer request on 51-year old Elmer Rolando Manzano on Tuesday, with the immigration agency revealing that Manzano is an illegal alien with a history of felony criminal convictions in the United States.

Elmer Rolando Manzano-Martinez, 51, is a citizen of El Salvador and convicted criminal alien who is unlawfully present in the U.S. On Oct. 20, officers from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) in Houston, Texas, placed an immigration detainer with the Harris County (Texas) Sheriff’s Office (HCSO) on Manzano-Martinez after he was arrested for murder.

Two officers of the Houston Police Department had arrived at an apartment complex to respond to reports of a domestic disturbance, with officers having previously been called to the residence in response to instances of Manzano fighting with his wife. Upon the arrival of the police, Manzano opened fire, shooting Sgt. Harold Preston multiple times, including in the head.

65-year old Preston was a 41-year veteran of the Houston Police.

Houston Police Chief Art Acevedo went on to describe Sgt. Preston as a pillar of the community at a press conference at Memorial Hermann Hospital.

“We’ve lost just a wonderful human being,” Acevedo said of Preston after announcing that he had died in the shooting. “He is leading with men and women on streets, instead of choosing to sit in an office drinking coffee and reading the paper. That is the man he was — he is a man who lived with elderly parents to take care of them. As good as he was as a cop, he was a better human being, that is just the guy that he was and we are going to miss him.”

Another officer, Courtney Waller, survived the shootings and is recovering from a gunshot to the arm.

After barricading himself in the residence, Manzano surrendered to police and was arrested hours after the shooting. Chief Acevedo expects the criminal alien to be charged with murder.....

Just tragic and so sad. A piece of human excrement can be put out on the streets to kill by a Soros backed DA.

HEY ABBOTT, if you are paying attention, time to issue an order to arrest DA AND SOROS.
