Had to call Harris County Sheriff the other day. 4 hours later I get a call from the deputy that was "dispatched". They never showed. He claims he did. Is there any office I can speak to about this? It seems the responses are becoming impossible timeframes or now non-existent.
I am at a loss as to what is happening with Harris County Sheriff Dept. I did live in Los Angeles for 6 years, and the law enforcement was so overwhelmed, backed-up, and understaffed to where they showed hours later or not at all. It feels this is happening in Houston now. I cannot believe I waited several HOURS for a deputy to show, until everyone eventually packed it in, and left. FOUR HOURS after my initial request to dispatch, the sheriff's deputy calls me. When I preface my statement by questioning his lateness, he becomes extremely angry, quickly tells me I am uncooperative, and hangs up the phone on me. Calls me back 1 minute later, talking over me, says I've "been documented and my remarks noted" (me the bad-guy, implied), to "have someone call and make another report", and then quickly hangs up again. Sends a text with the same words (to cover the ass, I'm sure)
WTF Harris County Sheriff ? — People skills go a long way. Bad enough he did NOT show up. Then lies and says he did. Then uses my "rudeness" as the excuse to drown me out on the phone, and conclude his "investigation?"
Who can I contact for this, who will even listen, or log it in as a problem/complaint?
