  1. Tired of all the Evil in the world says:

    I am so sick and tired of people that commit a serious crime and is not being held accountable, I know it’s not just in this county it’s everywhere. I’m not mentioning any names, but this woman is the biggest hypocrite, her husband is too. They talk about god this and pray and yet she’s a drunk and their both on drugs, this is a fact. Every problem they have ever had is not their fault. This woman has literally got on Facebook and telling horrible lies that could get people in trouble and saying their names. I am one of them. Last year she and her husband got into a argument and he was going to leave to diffuse the situation, she shot at the vehicle missing his head by an inch. This is normal behavior for her , every other day she tries to get someone, mainly her husband in trouble when she is always the instigator.. she went to jail for a few hours if that on Felony 2. I was hoping they wouldn’t let her out. But this is Bull crap she is friends with the idiot over county jail. He made sure her mugshot wasn’t on roster as well, she called him late at night to help her get out. I don’t know what favors this toothless drunk did for him. But it’s not right. If u go to jail in nacogdoches just call Jason bridges to help you.. this woman belongs in rusk she is a danger to society. I promise she’s a loose cannon and I want to say her name but I’m not like her.

      Have you ever noticed all the trash around the compactor; advertised as gated community but the entry gate is never closed.

      • Anonymous says:

        When we moved my daughter there, we were told it was student housing apartment complex. While visiting my daughter last weekend, we were at the pool and there are several older men hanging out at the pool, overheard them talking that they live at The Overlook, their families eventually joined them at the pool. Im not comfortable with my daughter living at The Overlook, its clearly not a student property as we were told…WILL NOT BE RENEWING THE LEASE.

  4. Children Come First says:

    Want to know what is really going on in Nacogdoches?
    Call Harold’s House and ask for the statistics on how many children are abused in this area. It is sickening that we are letting this go unnoticed in our town. Maybe we should start taking care of the people who are truly in need instead of worrying about people who simply refuse to stop living off of our tax dollars?

    • Terrible says:

      AMEN!!!

      If we keep bending our values to fit the “new normal,” we will lose everything this town holds dear. Our children should be taken care of! And anyone who abuses a child should get more than a slap on the wrist! The Daily Sentinel loves to put nonsense on the front page, maybe they should start exposing the facts that are right under our noses.

  5. FED TF UP says:

    Our town is being taken over by people who do not uphold any kind of morals or respect for family, God or human rights. It is getting more and more evident that we are losing our town to people who are out for themselves and not the citizens who live here. Why are we letting this happen? Why are we not holding events for the people who live here? Instead, we are allowing food trucks to take over downtown and feed those visiting our brick streets. Stealing directly from the small restaurants downtown that would love that business! The small restaurants that are paying TAXES / PERMITS / ETC.

    We should not have to constantly bend over backwards for a college that sh*ts on the town and expects unending donations or the town representatives that increase our taxes all the while collecting their checks and living out life in their vacation homes. We are feeding a machine that is destroying everything that people used to love about a small town. Our streets are no longer safe, our kids are not being protected, we turn a blind eye to the fact that there are now A LOT more homeless people on every corner. Our small businesses are fighting to survive while the big chains are ok with having a junk location that they can write off at the end of the year. What the hell is going on around here?? OPEN YOUR EYES PEOPLE. This isn’t a right or left thing – this is a HUMAN thing.

    • Reanisha Alexia says:

      Do you have any idea how many jobs the college supplies? Do you wonder why homelessness exists? Food trucks also pay taxes and have permits. I suggest if the high dollar restaurants want more business, they should provide it at a lower cost. Nacogdoches would be nothing without the colleges it brought your taxes down and like I said provided employment for many. You need to get a grip and stop thinking the world revolves around you. The whole world is going through exactly what your town is toche….. What in the world do you think it has to offer. Tourism nah!!!lol

      • Another Shocked Citizen says:

        Do you know how little the college pays its employees?
        The college does not lower the taxes in Nacogdoches, it severely increases them.

        You have clearly never owned anything by the attitude you carry, so please allow me enlighten you, most SMALL business owners in Nacogdoches who have restaurants are not “high dollar” earners. They are watching every penny just like everyone else living in this “new” world.

        By stating that this is not your town and asking what does this town offer, you are proving that you are just another idiot trying to kill the towns that are rooted in faith and freedom and protecting our children.

        Please go back where you came from and take your crazy ideas with you.

    We need a more liberty minded government, or maybe just less government in general. The private sector outperforms the government in virtually every category… even space travel. We have let the federal government trample all over the constitution for the past half century, not even counting local and state law and mandates. We are born free and no threat is worth giving that up, especially to an ever-growing authoritarian government. If they nullify the 2nd Amendment, the dream will be over. Just look at Australia.

  7. Sad says:

    The fredonia hotel is a nacogdoches staple that we all know and love. However, it is not doing as well as a lot of us would like to think. My wife and I visit often, and love the historic site, delicious food, and INCREDIBLE staff. From what I understand, the hotel is experiencing lots of budget cuts, and the staff seems to be suffering. I would hate to see this hotel go, but it unfortunately seems to be going down with the way it is being ran. I don’t know if that man who owns it is at fault, but it needs to be in the hands of someone who is willing to put the proper money and time into caring for the hotel and it’s staff. I notice such few workers in the restaurant, and it’s always the same faces when my wife and I visit. Recently, we went for breakfast and decided to stop in again for dinner, and we had the same server both times!!!! She said she had been there since 6:30 AM and would be staying to close as well. She said she is a college student, and that working these hours is normal for them on weekends. they don’t have enough workers. This is just so sad and I hate to see it.

    Memorial Hospital on mound street have there nurses a $1000 incentive for working with COVID it was approved last Friday form administration.But another employees like the nurse aids and techs physical therapy dietary and maintenance all work with COVID too but they did not receive anything…this is ridiculous and not right

  9. Jack says:

    In case you have not heard, Glenn Oldham of FUMC is a child molester. He should be due to report to jail any time now. He was caught by a federal task force in Montgomery County tx. You can google his image and see his mug shot. Look for June 3rd, 2020 arrest reports from Montgomery county and you will see it for your self. The two kids were to be ages 3 and 5. Burn in hell you bastard!

  10. bob schieffer says:

    Unfortunately it all about money. And of course not what you know but who you know in a small town. Nac pd is corrupt so are the courts with shady lawyers and a D A. that’s just as bad. Most problems are from the failed war on drugs that have ruined citizens life. They (law) steal from ppl mainly poor & ppl of color. If we end the war on drugs we end mass incarceration and broken families. The war on drugs is a hoax created by Nixon. He hated hippies (pot) & blacks (heroin) to infiltrate these groups the dea was created which gave them a loophole to kick in doors. Steal from citizens with civil forfeiture laws. Hopefully ppl will realize this is against our rights as Americans but also human rights as well. It’s a cash cow for the county, state. On top of your tax dollars you pay to house non violent drug offenders. And for the bible thumpers wwjd? I don’t think he would imprison anyone but I do think he would offer love. Not man made laws for greed and money which is a sin. And we wonder why ppl despise law enforcement. No one truly trust them. And the ppl that do haven’t been impacted yet. We still have a chance to turn things around. I encourage everyone to find the truth

  11. Wishes they had decent internet in nac county in 2019... says:

    Why can’t we have broadband internet in 2019? People like myself that live on FM 225 toward lake nacogdoches have horrendous internet throughput. ATT DSL is crummy to say the least, and satellite internet is an absolute joke…However, FM 343 has cable internet through suddenlink almost all the way to looneyville…whats stopping suddenlink from running down FM 225 toward the lake? We have speeds that were offered 10-15 years ago, and we pay more than those near town. Its crazy…at least Garrison has windstream, offers faster speed three times that of ATT for less money…was hoping the bill that passed would help us out…unlikely…Guess I’ll continue living in the stone age of broadband internet.

    • Understand says:

      I agree …out 21 east toward Melrose and chireno we can’t get anything beside AT&T or satellite as far as I know…it sucks

      • Anon says:

        Try starlink. They are looking for people in this area to test drive their service. Equipment is $500 and service is $100 a month but you have unlimited fast 50-200mbps speeds.

  12. Just Curious says:

    Whatever happened to Richard Epps? Not in County Jail, not in TDC.
    Did he escape from Nacogdoches County jail?

    • Anonymous says:

      If you go to Vinelink.com, it will show you where an offender is located. There are currently two Richard Epps in custody in Texas – one in Houston County Jail, another in Harris County Jail. Maybe one of those is the one you’re curious about?

  13. Nicole Meek says:

    I sit back 37weeks pregnant about to pop any giving time. The he band and father to his first born is about to discover life and my husband is locked led up in Nacadgoches county in Texas for a hold for love Oklahoma for court cost and fees. I would understand if he was in there for some something major but please release him so I don’t have to go through this birth alone. Inmate name Herbert Meek please

  14. Sad in this community says:

    We moved here 5 years ago thinking from all the things we’d heard it was a nice friendly community. Great place to raise our kids who are now in high school. We live in a very nice neighborhood too. I have to say, my experience has been anything but pleasant. Only 2 people have actually said “hello” and or “excuse me” in a store. 2. Since I’ve been here. My next door neighbor came over the day we were moving in and I haven’t seen them since. I’ve forgotten their names! The others across the street and everywhere else in this neighborhood are so freaking snobby. I have come to find it that everyone here in Nac is snobbish, upity, judgmental and all just seem to be straight up rude. If I could afford to move I so would. I just don’t understand why people here all seem to be this way.

    • Hang In There M'am says:

      Yes M’am you are EXACTLY RIGHT!! I found out rather quickly and continued to find out constantly over a duration of many years that the vast majority of people ( young, middle age, old, high class, middle class, low class, educated, uneducated, different races, different nationalities, etc ) living in Nacogdoches all are most certainly self centered, unfriendly, purposely have no respect at all for others including thier own “friends” “family”, hypocrites, demean everyone, beyond rude and snobbish, absolutely two-faced, highly judgmental, and definitely care about know one at all but themselves!!!! I can now honestly say that as an outsider looking in Thank the Good Lord!! Me being out from under neath the Nacogdoches Cloud now for a couple years I truly see how the people there are so outrageously abnormal in the most negative ways!!! Its by far not understandable, incomprehensible, and ultimately indescribable!! I wish you the best it can be while you and your family are in Nacogdoches and I will Pray for God to give you and your family the tools and the ability to soon be able to relocate to place full of Joy, Friendliness, Open Hearts, Respect, Smiles, Helpfulness, Considerateness, Great Hearts, and Loving!!!!!

    • Gerry says:

      I’m sorry you have had this experience. I have lived in Nac for 10 years and I love it and the people here. I’d say hello to you if we were neighbors, but to be honest, life gets busy and people have to be very intentional with their time. I go out of my way to help my neighbors, and generally. they return the favor. Anyway, hang in there, we aren’t all rude, you just need to find the right crowd. Come to Grace Bible Church, nicest folks I’ve ever met.

    • Mrs. K says:

      Dear Sad in This Community,

      I am not sure where you are in this fine city, but I assure you that everyone isn’t snobby, judgmental nor rude. All I can advise you to do is be the person that you want to meet here. You may come across a few that just aren’t going to be genuine nor friendly but don’t let their behavior dictate how you respond or behave.

    • Stop complaining Snowflake says:

      Why don’t you leave other people alone and stop judging them for not behaving the way you want them to. You should take the lead and talk to your neighbors. Don’t blame other people for things you don’t even want to do yourself

  15. ShouldHaveKnownBetter says:

    Why is it that every college age person in this town is completely clueless and without common sense? It makes me ill every time I encounter these people. I do not understand it, because these people are not much younger than I am yet they act like immature brats everywhere they go. Is SFA just a crappy college? I have lived in many other cities with a large amount of college students, and they were always normal functioning people.

  16. Patricia Cochran says:

    We need a brighter street light at entrance to Old Post Oak Rd and Appleby Sand Rd. And need about 3 street light’s added to Old Post Oak Rd from entrance off Appleby Sand Rd. There are many people walking and kids riding bikes on road and at night on early evening you can’t see them.

  17. Potato says:

    Nac County doesn’t care about your military service. They’re trying to tear apart my family. The whole GOP I’m proud of your service stuff is baloney here. FYI to any military past or present who are looking to relocate.

    • Hmmm says:

      Does anyone really care about military service anymore? I do not think the majority of people in this town even realize we are still fighting a war. All they seem to care about is taking selfies and being the best social justice warrior they can be.

    • Jay tomy says:

      Yep. The VA clinic in Lufkin is a joke to.

  18. Frustrated says:

    Correction: If you want to walk all you have to do is talk.

  19. Frustrated says:

    You think that is something. How about a person who gets arrested with 3 new felonies and a new Misdemeanor B, with 2 prior felonies, all done in the presence of a minor child, and walks away because the D.A. won’t seek an indictment from the Grand Jury. If you want to talk, all you have to do is talk in Nacogdoches County.

  20. thinks nac county is f'ed up says:

    Can someone explain why one person receives 10 days in jail and another person receives 1 -2 years probation or jail time for the same charge?? That’s ridiculous… Guess the county court docket really shows who snitches if you pay attention to it huh?
