A quick check on Ronnie

So Ronnie is currently located at the Stringfellow unit of the TDCJ.  They have programs for sex offenders, for literacy, and for job skills - all of which Ronnie needs.  All of which I doubt he will willingly take advantage of.  Ronnie used to be good at conning people - I fully expect that if he takes part of any program he will be doing it to "play the game".  Oh sure, he may feel bad about getting caught - but I don't think he's capable of true remorse.

Here's Ronnie's basic information:

SID Number: 02567306
TDCJ Number: 01253039
DOB: 1952-01-13
Case number: 962202
Offense: INDECENCY CHILD-TG
Projected Release Date: 2013-09-25

I did a search tonight on the Harris County Clerk website to see Ronnie's earlier sexual predator case. I saw it mentioned briefly years ago online, but after my initial discovery it disappeared, and I can't seem to locate the details on the TDCJ website anymore.  I did capture that information for my records 

A review of my records shows that Harris County charged him with one count of indeceny with a child of 11 years old, on 22 March 1996.  He was sentenced to 5 years of probation, and registered as a sex offender.  However, this was not treated as a felony.

Tonight I learned that Ronnie was charged with the felony burglary of a habitation in February of 1979. He was convicted of this felony in June of 1979, and sentenced to 5 years of probation. He was 27 years old at the time, and finished probation in 1984 at the age of 32.

This just about covers the whole time that he was married to my mother and was the bane of my sister's existence. During this time I never heard the word "probation" mentioned about Ronnie. No probation officer spoke to our family that I was ever aware of. I'm also sure that the probation officer didn't know that Ronnie, a felon, was in possession of a couple of fire arms - namely a shotgun and a rifle.

I'm starting to realize that I should do a little more serious homework on Ronnie's life. 

Ronnie is getting out of prison in September. I expect him to play "nice" for a while, and then I expect he will re-offend, getting his third strike.

If you are a family member in the Houston Darsey clan, please be aware of Ronnie's proclivities, and do NOT let him stay with your children! My sister and I know of at least two of Ronnie's victims, not including the little girl he abused when he was arrested.  Please don't let there be any more.
