Keller school board candidate arrested on drug charge Tea Bagger Delux
Edited on Fri May-07-10 11:16 AM by white cloud
A candidate for the Keller school board was arrested this week after officers found marijuana, marijuana plants and drug paraphernalia inside his north Fort Worth home, police reported.


David Marlin Besser Officers searched the home of David Marlin Besser in the 11600 block of Winding Brook Road after getting a tip that he was providing marijuana and alcohol to teens, according to a police report.

Besser, 45, who was a member of the school district’s bond committee in 2008, is running against Trustee Cindy Lotton for Place 3. The election is Saturday.

Besser faces a charge of possession of marijuana, a misdemeanor. He was also being held on three traffic warrants out of Wilmer with fines totaling $1,723.60, jail records show.

The police report states that two of Besser’s three daughters, ages 9 and 15, were removed from the home by Child Protective Services because of the living conditions that officers found.

The tipster also alleged that Besser would host parties at his Woodland Springs subdivision residence for teens and provide them alcohol, the report stated.

“Narcotics investigators received a tip that there was underage drinking and marijuana use at that residence,” said Lt. Paul Henderson, a Fort Worth police spokesman. “That’s what led up to the investigation, which subsequently resulted in a search warrant being executed and the arrest of Besser.”

2. Oh boy sounds tasty!
I don't have a problem with marijuana use and frankly it's a non-violent crime. But still this guy sounds like he was very irresponsible with his kids.

What the hell was he thinking running for school board? :shrug:

go to his facebook page and post a link to this thread for him.


Serious business
Police also seized pipes used for smoking, including three glass pipes of the kind often used to smoke methamphetamine.

7. Oh people are so on this
It's all over his facebook page. I'm surprised he hasn't taken it down.

Someone posted the link to the DMN story (below) and "enough said".

http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/news/localnews/stories/050810dnmetkellerisd.5b329d.html
But the comments on the DMN site have his Tea Party connections noted.


Keller might not be able to respond right now. :shrug:

15. three glass pipes of the kind often used to smoke methamphetamine
The only thing we smoked in glass pipes in the 60's and 70's was pot, hash and hash oil. And occasionally a little opium.

10. You need to have an account to host them
Here is the DU FAQ
www.democraticunderground.com/forums/faq.html#image
How do I post an image?

There is no special code to post images. All you have to do is type the URL of the image.

If you are using Internet Explorer on a Windows computer, you can find the URL of an image by right-clicking on that image, and then selecting "Properties." Look for where it says "Address (URL)."
Follow the link above to see the format which is http: (host name) (image name)

Some common image host sites are photobucket or flckr. Both have a free account set up. Once you get your account set up you upload from your computer to their servers.

Flckr
http://www.flickr.com/

PhotoBucket
http://photobucket.com/

Then you use the full URL they provide you for your image. It has to have the http part when you use it on DU. The full URL.

For example. Here is the White House Flckr account
http://www.flickr.com/photos/whitehouse and the image below is named 4573214186_8622b901c7.jpg but with their full URL.




Bobby Jindal didn't want the Federal Stimulus money before, but he sure wants it now. :eyes:

6. Given the "morality" of your common Bagger, don't you also worry about abuse of those
children?

That would completely fit the profile.

11. LOL! I saw his story on the news last night and wondered if he was a right winger.
Figured the chances were pretty good if he was from Keller.

17. The-Boiling Point Tea Party-Group
Edited on Sat May-08-10 09:49 AM by white cloud
http://www.meetup.com/The-Boiling-Point-Tea-Party-Group/

Welcome! This is a critical time for our nation. We need to join together shoulder to shoulder and work for our right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. The far left (Progressive Democrat Socialist) are in control and they are hell bent on destroying the greatest country in the free world. We have become the servants to the elected officials instead of the masters.

Our intention is to support those elected officials who represent our goals for this country. They are:

-Control spending
-Improve our health care system - not destroy it
-enforce our immigration laws and tighten our border security to reduce our dependence on foreign oil
-promote workable solutions to address local transportation needs
-ensure our national security and strengthen our Armed Services
-provide economic security and growth through tax relief and reform for all americans

Those elected officials who do not represent us will be voted out of office because we are going to be organized by 2010. We will be going door to door. Handing out information, working our precincts, engaging the youth to get educated and involved, making phone calls, walking our neighborhoods, signing up voters, writing letters to congress, going to rallies. doing presentations to groups and setting up a network of patriots that ACORN would be jealous of. If anyone reading this has anymore suggestions, please share.

19. Something not right...
Hi all,

New to your forum. I'm not a political activist, but recent events that have affected me directly have caused me to become a bit more "interested" in what is happening around me. I'll admit that most people would label me as conservative leaning, but frankly, the big-picture liberal vs. conservative debate doesn't really matter to me anymore. I'm a resident of north Texas and have watched as several people close to me have had their families destroyed by the corruption and cronyism in the local court system (particularly the family courts).

I came across this story about Mr. Besser and I have to say that it turned my stomach. I have no interest in debating whether or not a little marijuana is dangerous or not, etc..., but it seems way too convenient that this guy has his house raided while he is away, based on an anonymous tip, and he is taken away to jail. The story implies that he smokes methamphetamine even though nothing of the sort was found. And the worst part of all, CPS took away two of his daughters. My heart breaks for all of them.

None of this makes sense to me and it is far too similar to other things I've seen and heard about locally. I've tried to determine his party affiliation and that of the person he was running against, but other than the Tea Party reference, I haven't found much. But I don't think it really matters. It seems to be that whoever has power uses it to crush and destroy their fellow citizens...their neighbors. And their kids.

I'm sick of it. I am ready to rock the boat.

20. Glad to see your concern
Jump right in and post up your story. It's all media news so who know what is really going on.

It does concern us as a community that he has meth and MJ paraphernalia in his bedroom closet with children in the house??? We have to be a responsible part of our community and abide by our comm laws?

I will see if I can find out any more about this. Maybe someone else has something to add???

I am sure Joe Mc tactics are still around.

21. Welcome to DU CorruptCollinCounty!
I agree with you that our criminal justice system in Texas is broken. We have the absolute worst in the nation.

And you won't find too many supporters of CPS here either. Those CPS agents always over react, all for media coverage.

We don't know the back story as you say. We only get press accounts. Could it have been a set up? Who knows. Nothing about Texas politics or the criminal justice system would surprise me one damn bit.

:hi:
