#NEW: More info from the Texas and Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association into the arrest of Loving Co Judge Skeet Jones. 
This isn’t my first time reporting on Judge Jones.
In 2014, I did a story about how he was helping CDL drivers.
He was taking speeding tickets and turning them into illegal parking tickets. The driver would pay a higher fine and keep a clean driving record. You can’t do that.

Back to my original reporting on changing speeding tickets:
More than 90 citations filed as an illegal parking ticket that started as something else.
One included, assault resulting in bodily injury charge. It was dropped and changed to an illegal parking ticket.
