TRINIDAD, Texas (KLTV) - The police chief for the City of Trinidad has resigned his position, the mayor confirms.
Police Chief Charles Gregory is resigning from the position, which comes in the wake of arrests made by the police of two people speaking out about the alleged poor water quality in Trinidad.
Jennifer Combs was arrested and charged with making a false report, according to a lawsuit filed in federal court. Combs shared on her Facebook page that at least one person had been hospitalized because of the City’s water.
The City’s police department said there was no such case and arrested her.
Youtuber Otto the Watchdog was arrested for disorderly conduct while protesting her arrest. He’s now suing the City as well.
Combs’ charges were no-billed by a Henderson County Grand Jury. Municipal Judge Shellena Bivens dismisses the charges against Otto.
