In 2010 Liberty Dispatch has had to be selective in choosing what to pursue when given tips about criminal activity. The sheer volume has required it. In this election year we received more leads than in anytime since the website was turned on. Some of them were worthless and some alleged very serious and very illegal activity.
As we near the end of the year we would like to thank those people who have read this site and those who have defended this site and even prayed for us, but we also want to say a special thank you to those who had the courage to send us information. We have investigated some of the tips, we have reported some of the facts, and even after the election, we are confident that indictments will be forthcoming. We are still looking into some of the allegations that have been made; and have forwarded some to proper authorities. We ourselves are probably not even as patient as our worst critic, but the victory goes to those who persevere.
To give our readers a taste of the kind of things sent to us that we do not have the time to pursue, below is an e-mail we received a few days before the election.
“David T McCullough who is running for Liberty County Treasurer is being sued by my family after taking 15000.00 from us in Feb for a piece of property in Dayton that he told us he owned. In JUNE we found out he didn't own this property a dead man did and it still had a 26000,00 loan on it from the Texas Veteran Land Board. Even if we paid this off we wouldn't own it because Mr. McCullough doesn't own it. The dead man's estate does. Mr. McCullough found out we had hired Walter Fontenot in Liberty County to represent us and he's done his best to file every fraudulent paper with the county and the tax authorities in Tarkington because he hasn't even paid taxes since 2006 and he is not a tax accountant he's nothing. I wouldn't want this man in my county seat as a treasurer. He has his office in Houston located at 7712 Harrisburg Houston Texas 77012 as a homestead said to be owned by Maudine McCullough Who by the way has been dead since 1997 and is also claiming a senior exemption on a dead woman. This is a Good MAN NOT!!!! this is all public record and can be verified.”
Please stay tuned as the coming months will reveal some of the self-dealing that has been going on in the courthouse. Please keep adding to our vaults and help us help the newly elected public officials restore our local government’s integrity.

Actually, you guys only report fraudulent or illegal activity when it's not Republican. You guys appear to turn the other cheek when a Republican happens to be the culprit...
Before you cry bias, explain why Liberty Dispatch posted these allegations against this Democrat AFTER the election.
Probably because this Democrat was a Demo-Rat. A Rat that was chewing away at our TAX money.

Its probably because we didnt have any Republicans in office until this election. Taylor, Hight, Groce, so on and so forth. Looks like all the democratic crooked pocket filling self serving scondrels will be scratching their terminated butts on down the road!
