    I thought if the crooks crossed the county line you had to let them go.

      Well, Kerss and his supporters seem to think that, from some of the stupid comments they have posted here.

  2. Concerned Tax Payer says:

    Wish he could have investigated the burglary at my place, maybe something would have actually been done and my property found.

  3. Billy Dix says:

    Good job, Jason Bridges!

    Kerss probably wouldn’t work a case like this because he might have to go outside Nacogdoches County limits.

    We know Bridges will go wherever, whenever to work crime that affects Nacogdoches County residents.
