Jefferson County Corruption
US Attorney Releases man from Federal Prison after it comes to light that Jefferson County District Attorney Investigator Marcelo Molfino set up the man and Molfino's confidential informant planted the gun
When you read this affidavit showing District Attorney investigator Marcelo Molfino's involvement in the planting of a gun on an innocent man you will wonder why he isn't in jail and why the DA Bob Wortham is protecting him!! Marcelo Molfino has been exposed in a sworn affidavit for his involvement in the framing an innocent black Port Arthur TX man, Omar Daw, with a planted gun that was put there by one of Marcelo Molfino's Informants in an effort to pad their federal task force numbers. The US Attorney dismissed the case against Omar Daw and released him from his sentence, but not before Omar Daw spent 3 years in Federal Prison. The US Attorney told Omar that the gun had been planted there and told Omar Daw that the Port Arthur Police lied about no fingerprint on the gun (there were fingerprints of only Molfino's informant) and they were sorry about the three years in jail, and then released him and told him he couldn't sue or get compensation. It was all covered up quietly. But now Omar Daw is telling his story. Marcelo Molfino was effectively banned from working with the Federal Government quietly behind the scenes, but then Bob Wortham brought him on to be the chief criminal District Attorney Investigator to protect Molfino from prosecution and to use Molfino to do his own covering up. Read the full text of Omar Daw's affidavit below and also his signed affidavit is included with this post to share and spread the word of this corruption.
AFFIDAVIT OF OMAR DAW:
“My name is Omar Daw I am above the age of eighteen years, and I am fully competent to make this affidavit. The facts stated in this affidavit are within my personal knowledge and are true and correct.”
I was falsely imprisoned for 3 years. The US Attorney moved to drop the charges and release me from federal prison after it had been discovered that a confidential informant had planted a gun in my vehicle to set me up for the Port Arthur TX police department to find the weapon and arrest me. This confidential informant was one of the informants of Marcelo Molfino who was a Port Arthur Police Officer working with a joint federal task force. Leading up to my arrest, Marcelo Molfino had driven up to me on multiple occasions and harassed me about various things such as accusing me of knowing where a stolen Port Arthur police rifle was located. Not long after these run ins with Molfino, I was arrested because the Port Arthur police found a gun in my car after getting a ‘tip” from one of Molfino’s informants. Marcelo Molfino was a part of this investigation and he even showed up to the jail and told me “I got you now.” It was not my gun and I was set up, but I had no choice but to plead out to avoid a tougher sentence. After 3 years in prison for a crime I did not commit, the US Attorney’s office dismissed the charges and released me from prison due to one of Molfino’s confidential informants admitting that they planted the gun in my vehicle. This was likely at the request of Marcelo Molfino and or one of his fellow officers. The US Attorney Baylor Wortham is who called me. He further told me that there were prints found on the gun that belonged to the informant, even though the Port Arthur police report claimed that no fingerprints were found. Baylor Wortham told me that there was nothing I could do and said I couldn’t sue anyone so it all got swept under the rug. Marcelo Molfino took part in setting me up, planting a gun in my car, and putting me in jail for 3 years. Marcelo Molfino now is the chief criminal investigator for the Jefferson County District Attorney Bob Wortham, who is the father of Baylor Wortham, so it likely that Bob Wortham knows of and accepts the illegal behavior of Marcelo Molfino.

DA Investigator Marcelo Molfino is Fired amidst Wage Theft and Abuse of Information Allegations
Jefferson County District Attorney Investigator Marcelo Molfino has been fired by District Attorney Bob Wortham. This occurs amidst a new round of corruption allegations. I have been exposing corruption in Jefferson County for some time now. It is important that Constitutional rights of people are not trampled by government actors, and it is important that communities can trust and respect all the good law enforcement officers out there, which is why it is important to expose the bad apples.
I recently did an open records request with the Jefferson County District Attorney’s office for pay records of Investigator Molfino. It was discovered that while Jefferson County taxpayers were paying Molfino emergency pay to NOT work during Hurricane Laura, he was also getting paid in Port Arthur, TX with tax payer funds to do catering. That double dipping is not illegal although it certainly seems unethical.
The triple dipping is where things start to get illegal.
Pay records show that after Hurricane Laura, Molfino took paid time off on 9/25/2020. He was paid his full salary by the tax payers for the time that Molfino took off because Molfino claimed “comp pay.” Comp pay is when Molfino says that he worked overtime on a day in the past but instead of overtime pay, he instead takes off time in the future and still gets paid in order to make up for the extra time he previously worked. The District Attorney’s Office has yet to ever produce any records of this secret comp time stash that Molfino frequently uses to get paid time off. However, on Molfino’s time card Molfino wrote that the comp time he was getting paid for on 9/25 was earned by working extra on 8/26 during Hurricane Laura. The problem is that Molfino’s time card from 8/26 and his pay records both show that Molfino was getting paid emergency pay to NOT work on 8/26, AND additionally we know that Molfino was in Port Arthur getting paid to cook and cater during Hurricane Laura. So therefore, it is not possible that Molfino had earned any comp time on 8/26. So when Molfino claimed comp time earned on 8/26 in order to get paid to take off of work on 9/25, it appears that it was a false statement on his pay card by claiming comp time that that could not have been earned when Molfino claimed it was earned, and therefore theft of taxpayer dollars.
Molfino getting fired comes in this middle of me waiting for additional records for the County regarding this potential criminal activity.
But wait, that is not the only recent allegation of wrongdoing by Molfino.
Recently, a person named Mary Bond has come forward with allegations that Marcelo Molfino had falsified information in order to have her arrested. Furthermore, she alleges that Molfino used his government computer to access confidential past information and photos in order to leak those photos to a local political blogger. It is against the law to use information and government resources for private gain. It is called abuse of official information. Furthermore, it is certainly against the law to make false statements in order to get someone arrested.
Exactly how much these recent allegations played a part in District Attorney Bob Wortham finally letting Marcelo Molfino go is unknown. Maybe the recent events were just the straw that broke the camel’s back because there is a long list of allegations and information about wrongdoing by Investigator Marcelo Molfino from over the years. Molfino recently escaped charges of perjury, thanks to the statute of limitations running out, after a Texas Rangers investigation showed that Marcelo Molfino committed perjury by lying under oath on the stand. I have not done a follow up on that story yet but I will be posting the Texas Rangers report as soon as I get it. In short, Molfino had been trying to set up me, David Bellow, with false charges as retaliation for me having blew the whistle on Marcelo Molfino for practicing without a license, a Class A Misdemeanor. All charges against me were dropped, and now I try to help others, and help society, by working to expose the bad actors who abuse their trust and position they have been given by the citizens.
There will be more to come out as I get more data and information and records.
Breaking Texas Rangers Report! Jefferson County DA Bob Wortham Falsely Charged David Bellow in Bribe to Obtain Political Website bobwortham.com – Texas Rangers Investigate and Send Official Oppression Case to Special Prosecutor - District Attorney Wortham likely to face Grand Jury
Jefferson County District Attorney Bob Wortham has been under investigation by the Texas Rangers for, among other things, bribery and pay to prosecute, official oppression, and abuse of power for crimes committed against political rival David Bellow (read below for specific details). The Texas Rangers completed their investigation and sent the case to a Special Prosecutor, and elected San Jacinto County District Attorney, Robert Trapp. The special prosecutor has the choice to dismiss the case, or present the case to a grand jury. Given the crisis in America with abuse of power by those in office causing distrust of officers, it is vital that DA Bob Wortham is brought to justice for his crimes so that Americans see that even those in power must follow the laws. Bringing the bad guys with badges to justice will help the community trust law enforcement and will allow the many good officers out there to be respected and be able to do their jobs.
I know about all of the details of this case because I am the victim of this abuse of power and official oppression. Wortham falsely charged me to shut me up. After all the false charges against me were dismissed, I took the evidence to the Texas Rangers who then opened up a case against DA Bob Wortham and Investigator Marcelo Molfino. I have kept quiet about the specific details of this criminal case while the Texas Rangers were investigating so that evidence didn’t get interfered with, but now that the investigation by the Rangers is completed, it is time the details got revealed. Part one of this public official criminal scheme was posted earlier this month: Investigator Marcelo Molfino Committed Perjury against David Bellow – Texas Rangers Submit Report to Special Prosecutor. That story detailed the perjury of Bob Wortham’s DA investigator Marcelo Molfino. I also previously wrote an article with an overview of the situation: False Stalking and Perjury Charges against David Bellow DROPPED – Texas Rangers Investigating DA Bob Wortham for Corruption. Now it’s time to reveal the shocking details of the criminal activity of Bob Wortham that the Texas Rangers investigated and submitted a criminal case on.
So what did DA Bob Wortham do exactly? In short, he tried to falsely prosecute me and used it as leverage to then demand that I sell him a private political website in exchange for him dropping the false prosecution.
It all started a few years ago when I was going through a divorce. My ex wife had been leaving our one year old son in cars in parking lots while she had an affair. She might not have fared too well in our child custody case, so she then hired DA Investigator Marcelo Molfino to try to dig up dirt against me. I turned in Marcelo Molfino for doing private investigation without a license. The Texas DPS determined that Molfino was in violation of a Class A misdemeanor. Molfino’s boss is Bob Wortham and Bob Wortham refused to prosecute his investigator Molfino. Next thing you know, I get arrested and charged by DA Wortham and his investigator Molfino. I knew it was done in retaliation for me blowing the whistle on Marcelo Molfino. I had not committed any crime and I knew they wanted to silence me.
I didn’t let them silence me though and I fought back. That got me digging even more into Marcelo Molfino and Bob Wortham and I uncovered even more criminal activity by Molfino that Bob Wortham knew about and was covering up. I started doing records requests for DA office public records, and I bought BobWortham.com to post the details of the criminal activity of elected official Bob Wortham and his Investigator.
After the main charges they brought against me got tossed out, there was only one misdemeanor left against me and I was going to fight to expose the truth and get that false charge tossed out too. However, this final charge was the last of the leverage Bob Wortham had against me in their quest to silence my first amendment Constitutional rights. That is when they made their move. My attorney got a message from the DA’s office telling me I could get an eventual dismissal of the final charge in return for me selling the DA my political website and agree to drop my information requests connected to their criminal activity.
I distinctly remember when I heard about this, the first thing I told my attorney was that what they wanted was illegal and a bribe. The DA was requesting something of private personal value from me in exchange for an official prosecution decision. Not only was he holding false charges over my head in exchange for him getting something of value from me, but the bribe offer proved what I knew all along and that was that the DA was attempting to prosecute me as retaliation for me speaking out against him and their end goal was to simply silence me.
I was a great plan, to put someone against the wall and offer them easy freedom if they pay the DA what the DA wanted. The problem is I was innocent and I don’t give up standing for what is right. The first thing I did was call the Rangers and tell them I was offered a bribe by DA Wortham. The ranger I talked to said that basically there is no solid evidence unless I go along with it. I would have to go along with the bribe deal in order to take this corrupt DA down once and for all. No matter what, I was never going to admit guilt for something I didn’t do, nor was I going to be found guilty. So the DA really wanted that website and offered me to NO CONTEST for deferred adjudication dismissal which means no guilty plea and no guilty final adjudication and in 6 months the case gets completely dismissed. If I didn’t take the deal I would be fighting for another year to be found not guilty and I might not get solid evidence against the DA. If I took the deal I get the charges dismissed and no admission or finding of guilt and I get the evidence I need to take down the corrupt DA. Then after I prove the illegal activity of the DA, I could then file to have everything against me tossed out, even the deal, based on the deal, and the underlying charges, having been part of a political prosecution and part of the illegal activity of DA Bob Wortham and Marcelo Molfino.
So I go along with the bribery offer in order to get the evidence I needed to bring to the Texas Rangers. Sure enough, right after the deal was done I got a request from GoDaddy telling me someone wanted to by my website for $200. I ask GoDaddy to confirm that the offer to buy the website was part of the DA prosecution deal. GoDaddy confirmed this for me. So I sold the website and went to the Texas Rangers. Also part of the deal was that I not use my first amendment right to get public records from the DA which could show possible Criminal actions by the DA’s office. So I abandoned those records requests.
The Texas Rangers sent an out of town ranger from the Austin public corruption unit. He did a thorough investigation. The DA had given the evidence needed to prove the corruption. Would you believe the DA’s office sent a text with the bribe details? That literally sent it in a text that I could print out! If they are that bold and feel untouchable to send their criminal activity details in a text, I hate to think of what other corruption they are involved in that they are hiding. For starters, I do know from multiple credible sources that when the Feds stopped a big time illegal gambling ringleader Larry Tillery, the first person Tillery called from his car was Bob Wortham to have him call the officers and cease the traffic stop. Tillery was convicted and sent to jail, and maybe there is a case out there the feds are working on against Wortham too with the wire tap tape recording they have of the call.
So to wrap things up, the Rangers investigated DA Bob Wortham for the crimes committed against me. The public copy of the Texas Rangers investigation Report confirms that DA Wortham and his office are under investigation for abuse of power and official oppression against me related to the political website bribe. (see report below). Now that investigation has been turned over to the Special Prosecutor. If a grand jury sees the facts and evidence that I have seen, I have no doubt there will be an indictment of sitting Jefferson County District Attorney Bob Wortham.
Investigator Marcelo Molfino Committed Perjury against DavidBellow – Texas Rangers Submit Report to Special Prosecutor
A corrupt Jefferson County DA Investigator Marcelo Molfino is likely to finally face justice as the Texas Rangers have submitted their investigation against him to Special Prosecutor, and elected San Jacinto County District Attorney, Robert Trapp. Hopefully, this compelling evidence of perjury committed by Marcelo Molfino gets presented to a grand jury so that Marcelo Molfino can finally pay for his crimes. I know all about this story because I am who Marcelo Molfino tried to retaliate against with false charges as a way to shut me up after I blew the whistle on him for illegal activity. I fought back. All charges against me were eventually dismissed. And now it is time for this bad cop to be held accountable and be held to the same standards as everyone else. Bad cops like Marcelo Molfino must be held accountable in order to bring credibility and trust back between law enforcement and communities who are hurting and rioting due to another bad cop who senselessly put his knee on the neck of George Floyd until he died. Until we stand up and hold accountable the bad officer like Marcelo Molfino who clearly violate the law, we cannot bring America back together and help communities to trust law enforcement so that they can do their jobs and do it the right way. I am not the first person Molfino has wrongfully hurt. There is a long list, including Omar Daw who is a black man from Port Arthur, TX who was let out of federal prison by the US Attorney after serving 3 years as an innocent man after Marcelo Molfino, a Port Arthur officer at the time, conspired with a Confidential informant who planted a gun on Omar Daw to set him up.
I have stayed fairly quiet about the specific details of the illegal activity by Marcelo Molfino during the investigation by Texas Rangers so as not to damage the investigation. Now that the investigation is over and has been handed over to the Special Prosecutor, it is time the world hears more of the details. Plain and Simple, DA investigator Marcelo Molfino took the stand and lied like a dog. He committed perjury and official oppression so unbelievably blatant that it is hard to believe. Maybe he thought I would be in jail and no one would know like the others he has framed, or maybe he just thought he was above the law and protected by his boss the District Attorney Bob Wortham, who has protected him from criminal charges in the past and is also under investigation by the Texas Rangers under the direction of the Special Prosecutor. When a deputy chief in Port Arthur went to Bob Wortham about criminal activity of Marcelo Molfino, Bob Wortham told him to back off because Molfino was “his boy.” He probably would have gotten away with it this time too had the Texas Rangers not gotten a special prosecutor who was not connected to Jefferson County. Robert Trapp is an elected DA from San Jacinto County and he has no special interest connection with Jefferson County and has, from my perspective, asked the Texas Rangers to do a fair and thorough investigation. Now that the Mr. Trapp has the investigation, I don’t believe that he will just toss the case, especially after such an in-depth investigation by the Texas Rangers after the special prosecutor widened his investigation into Jefferson County District Attorney corruption to specifically include investigating Marcelo Molfino. The stakes are too high and the evidence is too compelling. I believe Mr. Trapp will present the case to a Grand Jury, and if the grand jury sees the evidence that I have seen, I believe there will be an indictment of Marcelo Molfino.
I previously wrote an article with a general overview of what was going on which you can read here: False Stalking and Perjury Charges against David Bellow DROPPED – Texas Rangers Investigating DA Bob Wortham for Corruption
However, I didn’t really get into a lot of the specific details of the criminal activity that the Texas Rangers were investigating in that previous story. Now that the investigation has been completed, I will be releasing more of the details. First, I will go over the perjury of Marcelo Molfino that I know happened because I witnessed it with my own eyes. Then, a second soon to come article will detail the District Attorney Bob Wortham’s bribery and abuse of office scheme in which he used the false charges against me by his official position in order to personally obtain a private political website from me in exchange for prosecutorial decisions (you can’t make this stuff up!)
So what happened and how did Molfino commit perjury? A few years ago I uncovered illegal activity by the Jefferson County District Attorney Investigator Marcelo Molfino. I turned in Marcelo Molfino to Texas DPS. Texas DPS in a written report determined that Marcelo Molfino violated the law. Jefferson County DA Bob Wortham refused to prosecute his own investigator. Instead, Bob Wortham puts Marcelo Molfino directly on a bogus case to retaliate against me with false charges. You would think that would already be an obvious conflict of interest right? Well it gets better. Throw in my ex-wife in a bitter child custody battle paying Marcelo Molfino at least $1500 cash to try to frame me, a good and loving father, in order to get a leg up in the custody battle in which she would not win after she had been caught leaving my one year old son in parking lots crying alone in cars while she had affairs in a different vehicle. That’s not shady right? The DA investigator Marcelo Molfino got paid cash by my civil court opponent right before he charges me with false charges. How do I know this cash exchanged hands? Both Marcelo Molfino and my ex-wife admitted to the exchange of cash when they testified in court. So you see, after I blew the whistle on Molfino, and after my ex paid him cash, Marcelo Molfino then personally wrote the affidavit to have me charged with aggravated perjury. I fought back and took it to trial to clear my name. Marcelo Molfino was called to testify, and he lied through his teeth. That my friends is aggravated perjury and official oppression, and It is the worst perjury of all because this is a law enforcement officer using his position of power to lie in order to try to get someone wrongfully put in jail.
In the mistrial of the case, Marcelo Molfino testified under oath against me. In his sworn testimony, Marcelo Molfino committed over a dozen instances of perjury. Many of the instances of perjury involve Marcelo Molfino adamantly stating under oath that he was never involved in any part of the investigations against me which led to charges against me. There are numerous facts and documents the prove otherwise, and Marcelo Molfino even admitted to much of his involvement in the investigations when pressed under oath on the stand.
To make things easy to prove the Perjury by Marcelo Molfino, I will focus on the two most obvious, egregious, and easily factually provable instances of Perjury by Marcelo Molfino.
First, the REPORTER'S RECORD VOLUME 3 OF 4 CAUSE NO. 16-25250 Jefferson County shows the sworn testimony of Marcelo Molfino on April 12, 2018.
This transcript shows, from page 262 to page 266, Marcelo Molfino on several occasions, adamantly denies that he ever was part of any investigation of the charge of perjury brought against me. In fact, Marcelo Molfino specifically testifies that he never even did any interviews nor did he ever get any information, nor did he get any statements. Marcelo Molfino testified that if he participated in those ways in any investigation against me that he would have stepped back away from being involved in the case. In fact, the transcript goes on to show that, when pressed with contradicting information, Marcelo Molfino admitted or was shown to have been involved in nearly every aspect of this investigation from the beginning against me which led to his personally filing perjury charges against me after I blew the whistle on him and after he accepted cash from my ex-wife. Specifically, the most direct and most compelling factual evidence proving that Marcelo Molfino committed perjury is a sworn statement during the bogus investigation against me that notary Crystal Hebert signed. The sworn statement specifically states that she gave the statement to and for Marcelo Molfino. This statement was taken by Marcelo Molfino and only done for the purpose investigating me to that Marcelo Molfino could personally charge me. This statement by Crystal Hebert, which was signed on 5/25/2016 the day before Marcelo Molfino then used the statement to support the charges he brought against me in his probable cause affidavit. This proves that Marcelo Molfino lied when he testified that he was never part of the investigation and never took and statements or interviews. Further proof that Molfino committed perjury is a search warrant that Marcelo Molfino personally wrote and went to a judge to confiscate my cell phone to singlehandedly gather evidence in the bogus criminal investigation Molfino brought against me. This search warrant was done by Marcelo Molfino on 5/25/2016 the day before Marcelo Molfino personally brought charges against me. This search warrant proves that Marcelo Molfino lied when he testified that when he personally wrote the affidavit to have me charged, he had never been involved in any criminal investigation against me and specifically that he had never went to get any information in the investigation.
These above factual pieces of evidence showing the search warrant by Marcelo Molfino and the statement of Chrystal Hebert taken by Marcelo Molfino, which were part of the investigation and evidence used against me by Molfino to charge me, prove in a very clear and convincing way, that Marcelo Molfino knowingly and intentionally lied under oath on April 12, 2018 when Marcelo Molfino repeatedly testified and swore that he never was involved in any part of the investigation against me and specifically had not gathered any information or statements nor done any interviews in the case he brought against me.
Second, in his sworn testimony on April 12, 2018, Marcelo Molfino, on page 216 and 217 of the transcript, Molfino was asked about the criminal activity that I blew the whistle on Molfino to the Texas DPS well before Molfino brought any false charges against me. Molfino, when asked under oath if Texas DOS Agent Oduwole had informed him that Molfino’s actions were against the law and a class A misdemeanor, Marcelo Molfino on more than one time under oath stated NO that Oduwole did not tell him it was against the law. In reality, Agent Oduwole did in fact inform Marcelo Molfino that he was violating the law a class A Misdemeanor. Not only did Agent Oduwole put that it was a violation of the law in his report against Marcelo Molfino, but additionally, former Judge Layne Walker recently talked with Agent Oduwole and told him about Marcelo’s testimony. According to Layne Walker, Agent Oduwole stated that Marcelo Molfino had lied and that he did in fact inform Molfino that his actions were violating the law. This is another instance of clear and convincing perjury by Marcelo Molfino.
The evidence is clear, Marcelo Molfino committed perjury on April 12, 2018 in his sworn under oath testimony. Marcelo Molfino lied under oath in a trial where he was personally accusing me of lying and had brought charges against me with his power as a public official. Marcelo Molfino seemingly did this as an attempt to retaliate against me after I had blown the whistle on him and after he accepted cash from my ex-wife. Marcelo Molfino lied under oath in an attempt to deceive the jury and Marcelo should be charged for these serious crimes especially since he is a person of power and trust who was lying in an attempt to deprive me of my rights and liberties.
The Texas Rangers did a fair and thorough investigation and I believe the Special Prosecutor will present all these facts and evidence to a grand jury and Justice will finally be done and Marcelo Molfino will be indicted for the abuse of power and official oppression and perjury committed by Jefferson County District Attorney Investigator Marcelo Molfino. God has blessed me. Through my trials I was able to uncover the illegal activity of these public officials which has and will help many others by putting a stop to their corruption. All cases against me got eventually dismissed and I moved on and have a wonderful family. My wife Denise Bellow and I recently had a son and that makes 3 boys, and we are having a blast together as a family. Those three boys could have been without a father due to a bad officer Marcelo Molfino who tried to falsely charge me as he has done to many other innocent people in the past. Its time he is brought to justice. His existence as an officer, with the knowledge of the facts and evidence which prove his criminal activity, is a slap in the face of the good officers out there trying to do their job the right way.
False Stalking and Perjury Charges against David Bellow DROPPED - Texas Rangers Investigating DA Bob Wortham and Marcelo Molfino for Corruption and Official Oppression
Jefferson County District Attorney Investigator Marcelo Molfino accepted CASH to Falsely Charge Political Activist David Bellow with Stalking and Perjury following Bellow’s Whistleblower complaint
the following is a press release sent to the area media and posted up by David Bellow on his personal blog and we are posting it here as shocking corruption breaking news:
My name is David Bellow and I have been vindicated and am telling my story of corruption in Jefferson County, Texas. I am happy to announce that the horrible, politically motivated false charges against me of Stalking and Perjury have been completely dismissed (Click for Dismissal Orders Here: Perjury, Stalking), and now the Texas Rangers have opened an official criminal investigation against Jefferson County and Corrupt District Attorney Bob Wortham for abuse of office and official oppression against me with District Attorney Robert Trapp being appointed attorney Pro Tem as Special Prosecutor (Click Here for Texas Ranger Report of Investigation obtained through an Open Records Request).
BACKGROUND
I used to be very active in the political world, standing up for what I believe is right and fighting to expose corruption. I frequently blogged and wrote articles and got involved in the political process, even being elected as a political party official. Back in 2014, my now ex-wife started leaving my one-year old son in cars in parking lots while she had an affair. I was told of the affair and of my son being left in cars and I did what any parent would do and I went to that parking lot and got my crying and hyperventilating one year old son from that abandoned car where he was left alone. I went home with my son and then tried to set up marriage counseling as a reasonable non-violent person would do. We went to what we thought was Christian Counseling at First Baptist Church Beaumont where Texas Licensed Counselor (and pastor) Larry Walker’s not so Christian advice was to suggest divorce instead of reconciliation attempts, and he even suggested a divorce lawyer on standby in the church. That is unfortunately the sad reality of many churches who are falling away from faith and family values. This is important though because it is the first instance where the State of Texas opened an investigation into what would be a long excruciating story of corruption in Jefferson County. The state began investigating the professional counselor license of Larry Walker for such things as not reporting suspected Child abuse or neglect as required by law after hearing of my son being left in cars in parking lots. During the divorce and child custody proceedings that followed, there were no accusations against me. I was a good father involved in my son’s life and I was never accused of being threating or abusive, and in fact, my ex-wife signed multiple under oath sworn statements stating that I had never committed family violence and she was only seeking a no-fault divorce. However, she didn’t want our son to have me as a father, which is similar in many custody battles in which people allow hate and bitterness for another person to rip children from loving mothers or fathers whom the children need and deserve equally, which has created the greatest societal crisis of our time with the effects of single family homes and children without fathers being well documented and catastrophic for the children involved and for society as a whole (Click here for government statistics: https://thefatherlessgeneration.wordpress.com/statistics/). I, however, intended to fight for and protect my son and be in his life as his father. In fact, I had the upper hand in the custody case as my ex-wife had admitted in sworn testimony to being violent towards me and leaving our son in cars while she had affairs. That is when her attorney (who was also the attorney for the church where the counselor was under investigation) started to pull out some tricks against me to delay justice. For instance, If you try to sanction the other side with petty complaints such as turning over discovery items a day late, then you can wear down and drag out custody litigation cause the other side to run out of money, then you win. So that is what her attorney tried to do. They even hired a “private investigator”, Marcelo Molfino.
CORRUPTION: MARCELO MOLFINO and JEFFERSON COUNTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY BOB WORTHAM
They hired Marcelo Molfino to download my cell phones and allege that not all the data was turned over so that they could try to get all evidence tossed out in the case on a technicality. My side hired our own, more reputable private digital forensics, Red Forensics, from out of town who determined that not only was the report and data from Molfino false and misleading, but it also apeared as though Marcelo Molfino was practicing as a private investigator without a license. So I blew the whistle on Marcelo Molfino with the State of Texas, and the Texas DPS determined that Marcelo Molfino was practicing without a license which is a Class A Misdemeanor. And that is where my real troubles began. You see, Marcelo Molfino was the lead Criminal Investigator for Jefferson County District Attorney Bob Wortham. Not only did I uncover the illegal activity of Marcelo Molfino in my case, I then discovered many other instances where Molfino was violating the law and using his position in the DA office to oppress people. Through Open Records Requests, I even discovered false contradicting statements on government documents, and uncovered many instances where he would get paid by people in the “private civil arena” and then turn around and try to get people charged criminally under his criminal prosecution hat against the people he was paid privately to oppose. The Texas DPS asked the Jefferson County DA if he would be filing charges against Molfino, and the DA said no. The DA decides who to protect and who to prosecute. After protecting his investigator Molfino from criminal charges that I blew the whistle on, the DA Bob Wortham then put Marcelo Molfino on a mission to personally bring false charges against me using the power of his prosecution office. Can anyone say clear conflict of interest? This was done for 2 reasons. This persecution against me was done in retaliation against me for my whistleblower complaint to silence me and discredit my complaints against Marcelo Molfino, and it was also done because, as would come out in criminal trial testimony, my ex wife, at the direction of her attorney, paid Marcelo Molfino at least $1500 cash shortly before Molfino brought false charges against me. She even went to the Jefferson County Courthouse government building to meet Marcelo Molfino as part of this “private exchange” of services, according to trial transcripts.
After nearly 2 years of a custody battle, the money ran out for me to fight and I offered my ex-wife 50/50 custody of our son, which she accepted. Her acceptance was just another trick though as her acceptance was only so she could get the custody case against her out of the way so that she could transfer the proceedings to Jefferson County to do an immediate modification custody suit to change the child custody order to try to take my son from me. She brought the case to Judge Larry Thorne, who her attorney had made a rare large donation to. Judge Larry Thorne would later be found by the State of Texas as having accepted tend of thousands of illegal contributions from attorneys and fined nearly $40,000 (Click Here to see Order against Judge Larry Thorne). Not surprisingly, the local DA Bob Wortham who holds the power to prosecute, did not prosecute judge Larry Thorne for the felony violations the state found him to have violated.
So back to the custody case, only a month after accepting the final 50/50 custody agreement order which I hoped would bring stability to my son’s life, and after years of a bitter divorce case in which she swore against any allegations of family violence from me, my ex-wife simply then went to Jefferson County Investigator Marcelo Molfino and paid him cash money. She then filed criminal complaints alleging that, three years earlier, even before the divorce started, she felt “alarmed” when I, while we were married, went to a parking lot to get my son from an abandoned car. So she filed felony “stalking family violence” charges against me as her basis of trying to change the agreed custody order with the new Judge Larry Thorne. The DA’s office of course fast tracked a prosecution against me with Marcelo Molfino at the helm. Molfino was under investigation at the time as a result of my complaint BEFORE he brought retaliatory charges against me. Even worse, Molfino was paid cash money by my ex. Literally the prosecutors office was taking money “bribes” to prosecute, and they put Molfino directly on the case to silence me and discredit my legitimate complaints against him which were validated by the state of Texas. That wasn’t enough to silence me and I kept fighting and I kept investigating, so then Molfino personally wrote out an affidavit alleging I am a liar and charged me with felony perjury. What better way to discredit your accuser than to bring false perjury charges against him so you can just say don’t believe him he is charged with perjury. At one point the DA wanting a ONE MILLION dollar bond or NO BOND. I guess the only way to keep me from talking to the Texas State investigators was to try to put me, a non violent political adversary, in permanent confinement with bond higher than an alleged murderer.
I fought and I exposed and finally one by one the charges went away. Felony Stalking case dismissed. Felony Perjury case dismissed. I have never been convicted and have never pled guilty and never been found guilty. I have been vindicated with all criminal cases now gone away. Of course you won’t find word of my cases dismissed in the news like I was in the news when the DA’s office sent word to the news stations of my initial arrests so they could parade my mugshot though the news and all but convict me before a trial.
This story I bring to light only touches the surface of the roller coaster ride I have experienced, and barely addresses all the instances of criminal activity and corruption I uncovered involving the Jefferson County District Attorney’s office. There have been many less fortunate than me who might have pled guilty just to cut a deal to get out of the false prosecution, or maybe they were found guilty based off of fabricated evidence. I will continue to fight to protect and defend the Constitution and the rights that everyone should enjoy by fighting and exposing corruption.
The big news to top off my vindication from the false prosecution by Jefferson County, is that the Texas Rangers have officially and formally opened a criminal investigation against Jefferson County for abuse of office and official oppression against me. Yes, the Jefferson County Criminal District Attorney Bob Wortham and his office are under official criminal investigation by the Texas Rangers with a special prosecutor even having been appointed from another county.
So I am back! I got to settle down for a bit and I have a beautiful wife, Denise, son and stepson, and baby boy arriving next month! I will be writing and blogging more about politics I am passionate about and about political news, with a focus on the broken family court system that needs drastic reform to save and stabilize children and society, as well as a focus on public corruption and criminal justice which need drastic reforms to prevent innocent people from going to jail due to faulty or fabricated evidence and a lack of Constitutional protections and due process, and due to even intentional false prosecutions that are rampant and allowed to happen.
