Dear Friend of the Police,
A George Soros-supported prosecutor wants to throw my son in jail.
And you may be his last hope for
freedom.
This is a photo my son, former Deputy James Johnson of the Williamson
County, TX
Sheriff's Department with two of my four grandkids.
On
the night of March 28, 2019, my son conducted a routine traffic stop.
But instead of pulling over, the driver -- a convicted drug dealer named
Javier Ambler -- floored the gas and tried to flee.
Speeding at 100 miles per hour, he collided with signs, fences, and other
roadside objects in a chase that lasted 22 minutes.
At any moment, another driver or a pedestrian could have been struck and
killed by Ambler's reckless driving. It was a deadly serious situation.
Eventually, the chase ended when Ambler crashed into a tree.
My
son ordered him to get on the ground at gunpoint. Ambler refused.
James ordered again, and still the driver did not comply.
That's when another Deputy and an Austin Police Officer arrived on scene. Together, they tried to handcuff the giant man --
but he kept fighting to get back on his feet.
Ambler weighed nearly 400 pounds.
So, to put a stop to his fighting and get
him handcuffed, they deployed a taser again.
But he kept resisting.
They tased him again and were finally able
to get him into handcuffs.
That's when Ambler lost consciousness. Without missing a beat, they
immediately began life-saving tactics and radioed for an ambulance to respond with high priority.
Ambler was rushed to the hospital -- but
despite the prompt medical attention, he was declared dead on arrival.
According to the medical examiner, Ambler's "morbid
obesity" had given him "congestive heart failure" and "hyper intensive cardiovascular disease,"" which, in the heat of
the struggle, caused his death.
Soon after, an internal affairs investigation by my son's department
found that the deputies did nothing wrong.
A second investigation by the Austin Police Department concluded
my son and the other officers did not cause Ambler's death.
But two years after being cleared, my son
was charged with manslaughter!
So what changed?
Well, Travis County -- where Ambler
crashed and the chase concluded -- elected a new District Attorney.
A George Soros-funded District Attorney . . .also endorsed by Bernie
Sanders and Elizabeth Warren.
More such officers who sacrifice so much for will face similar fates unless we speak out and stand up for the brave men and women in blue. The next time you see a police officer in your community, please thank them for their service.
