@houstonpolice @dylmcguinness Prosecutors allege Mark Aguirre slammed into the back of an A/C repairman’s truck at about 5:30 a.m. on Oct. 19 of last year. He pulled a gun, forced the repairman to the ground and put a knee on his back. houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-t…
Aguirre allegedly ordered another person to search the truck. A police officer happened upon the scene shortly after. houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-t…
Aguirre, who was fired by HPD in 2003, would later tell investigators he was conducting a “citizens investigation” into an alleged ballot harvesting scheme he thought was orchestrated by local Democrats. houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-t…
He told police they would find hundreds of thousands of ballots in the repairman’s truck.
They found only air conditioning parts and tools. Aguirre said he had been following the repairman for four days. houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-t…

Aguirre, a licensed private investigator at the time, was hired to investigate fraud claims and paid about $266,400 by the Liberty Center for God and Country around the time of the incident. houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-t…
That group is led by @HotzeHealth, the local conservative activist, and @woodfill, the former @HarrisCountyGOP chairman. houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-t…
