TUESDAY, JANUARY 29,...FREEPORT PUTS MORROW ON LEAVE<br />TUESDAY, JANUARY 29, 2013<br />By SHANNON DAUGHTRY<br />shannon.daughtry@thefacts.com<br />FREEPORT — Police Chief Tyrone Morrow has been relieved of duty with pay and benefits, but city leaders are mum as to why. City Manager Jeff Pynes told Morrow he was relieved of duty Monday evening, and he will remain off duty pending the outcome of an independent investigation into complaints lodged against him, officials said. “We’ll bring in an out-<br />side investigator,” Pynes said. “He was only relieved of duty to protect the integrity of the investigation, the victims and/or complainants and for him.” Morrow, reached by cell phone, said his attorney advised him not to comment. “There are multiple allegations that will be part of the internal affairs inquiry,” Pynes said.<br />“There was one today and several others in the recent<br />past. There were some events that happened Monday that prompted a stronger administrative response.” No real time frame has been established for the investigation, Pynes said, but another police chief from another location or a<br />retired police chief will be brought in to conduct the<br />investigation. “He’s not suspended indefinitely. He hasn’t even been suspended. He’s been relieved of duty with pay and benefits,” Pynes said. Mayor Norma Moreno Garcia had no information about Morrow being relieved of duty. “I don’t know anything about it,” Garcia said. “Just that he’s under<br />investigation.” Pynes appointed Lt. Dan Pennington as the interim chief until the city determines the next step, he said.“Morrow is still employed by the city,” Pynes said. “He’s not losing any benefits.” Morrow is paid about $90,000 a year. Morrow has been Freeport’s police chief<br />since February 2010. He is a 31-year law enforcement<br />veteran and former Bryan police chief Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11646417.post-2512883858018780712012-12-13T05:56:02.726-08:002012-12-13T05:56:02.726-08:00"...Do you really think a DA would've pas..."...Do you really think a DA would've passed up a juicy case like this if it could've been won?..."<br /><br />That make no sense.

EVERY PERSON HAS THEIR CHOICE OF THEIR LIFE. HE IS OUR FIRST AFRICAN AMERICAN CHIEF AND WHAT ROLE MODEL DO OUR YOUNG MEN AND CHILDREN HAVE TO FOLLOW. SURE HE IS SMART BUT THEN HE IS DUM. WHAT FREEPORT NEEDED WAS A BLACK MAN WITH A BLACK WOMAN BESIDES HIM. WE WERE LOOKING FOR A OBAMA AND MICHELLE LOOK FOR OUR TOWN. OBAMA SAID YES YOU CAN. WELL HE SHOWS THAT THE BLACK MAN CAN BUT THAT THE BLACK MAN IS NOT DESERVING OF A STRONG BLACK WOMAN. MANY MEMBERS OF MY CHURCH AND NEIGHBORHOOD WERE LOOKING FORWARD TO A INTELLIGENT, SUCCESSFUL, STRONG SUPPORTIVE BLACK WOMAN TO COME INTO OUR TOWN TO ENCOURAGE OUR YOUNG BLACK LADIES AND GIRLS. AND HE BRING US A CAUSCIAN WOMAN. THAT IS HIS CHOICE BUT I FEEL AS IF THE TOWN SHOULD HAVE SELECTED A FAMILY AFRICAN AMERICAN TO LEAD FREEPORT. I JUST HOPE HE DOES WHAT HE CAME TO DO IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME AND GET OUT. THEN MAYBE THE NEXT ONE WILL BE ABLE TO SHOW THAT ITS OK TO BE WITH A WOMAN THAT IS OF YOUR RACE AND BE SUCCESSFUL. THEN IT MAKES ME WONDER HOW HE CAN SPEAK SO HIGHLY OF HIS MOTHER AND SHE IS A TOTAL BLACK WOMAN BUT HE FEELS THAT HE IS TO GOOD TO HAVE ONE. WAKE UP TYRONE MORROW. THATS WHAT GOT YOU IN ALL THAT MESS IN BRYAN. GIVE A AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMAN A CHANCE. I DID MY RESEARCH. HE HAD ONE IN BRYAN WHO WAS ACTIVE IN THE COMMUNITY, SUCCESSFUL, POWERFUL. AND A MENTOR TO NUMEROUS YOUNG GIRLS. SHE WAS WHAT FREEPORT NEEDED. BUT HE FELT SHE WAS NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO HELP HIM CLEAN UP HIS CAREER. THANK GOODNESS HE LEFT HER BECAUS EHE MAY HAVE ENDED UP HAVE A DOMESTIC ALTERCATION AND FOUND SOMEONE WHO WOULD NEED THE POLICE TO AID HIM THIS TIME.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11646417.post-70733261040853269532010-02-09T21:48:27.991-08:002010-02-09T21:48:27.991-08:00why would the city of freeport want someone who ha...why would the city of freeport want someone who has a history of what it is that he did. of course he is going to cry and claim innocence. he lost alot because of what it is that he did. and then he had to go and get another causcian woman. what does he have against a strong african american woman. but then he cant beat then because they match him hit for hit. he had a very intelligent career orientated successful strong black woman he was dating but he chose someone who he felt he could beat i suppose. thank goodness byan rid our street sof him.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11646417.post-90483567106155089432010-02-08T06:47:51.903-08:002010-02-08T06:47:51.903-08:00http://www.theeagle.com/local/Morrow---Every-saint...http://www.theeagle.com/local/Morrow---Every-saint-has-a-past--and-every-sinner-has-a-future--2010-02-01T20-47<br /><br />“Why would you pick a chief that you knowingly know had issues in the past?” Morrow said. “My answer is this: Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future. I am a child of God, and I am a sinner. I have made mistakes and I am not happy about things that have happened in my past. I am not proud of them. But sometimes in life, there are circumstances that happen that are beyond your control,” he said.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11646417.post-39328605946842728652010-02-08T06:41:28.700-08:002010-02-08T06:41:28.700-08:00MORROW SWAGGERED INTO THE MEET AND GREET GRINNIN&#...MORROW SWAGGERED INTO THE MEET AND GREET GRINNIN' AND WINKING - TOLD PEOPLE HE WOULD ONLY LET THEM ASK HIM THIS ONE LAST TIME ABOUT THE DOMESTIC VIOLENCE INCIDENTS / ALLEGATIONS IN HIS [NOT-SO-LONG-AGO] PAST. HE'S THE MAN!!! BRYAN TEXAS IS HAPPY TO SEE YOU GO. DON'T LET THE DOORKNOB HIT YA WHERE THE DOG SHOULDA BIT YA. WHAT IS THE SOCIAL IQ OF FREEPORT CITIZENS? AND OFFICIALS PUT MORE WEIGHT ON MORROW'S EDUCATION - LIKE HE'S APPLYING TO BE A PROFESSOR, WHILE IGNORING HIS PAST IN CRIME - WHICH IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE HIS JOB TO PREVENT OR HOLD PEOPLE ACCOUNTABLE FOR.<br /><br />IS HE GOING TO ALLOW THE CRIMINALS IN FREEPORT TO DO WHAT HE DID - CRY PITIFULLY, ADMIT THEY HAVE DONE A BAD THING, AND THEN LET THEM WALK AWAY TOO? OR WILL JUST FREEPORT'S ACCUSED DOMESTIC VIOLENCE BATTERER'S GET A FREE PASS? CERTAINLY THE POLICE CAN'T HOLD THE CITIZENS TO HIGHER STANDARD THAN THE ONE THEY HOLD THEMSELVES TO! NO. <br /><br />AND IS TEXAS SHORT ON AFRICAN AMERICAN QUALIFIED LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS? FREEPORT IS JUST PINK ABOUT THEIR NEW CHIEF BUT THEY COULDN'T FIND AN AFRICAN AMERICAN WHO WASN'T ACCUSED OF ATTACKS AND CRUELTY TO HIS WIFE? DON'T BRING UP HIS WIFE'S RECANT BECAUSE SHE RECANTED HER RECANT. SHE WAS TRYING TO SOFTEN THINGS BUT THINGS ONLY GOT WORSE... HER RECANT DIDN'T SAVE HER. OUR SILENCES WILL NOT PROTECT US.<br /><br />OUT OF HIS OWN MOUTH HE REFERS TO IT ALL AS A "PRIVATE MATTER". WHAT SCHOOL DID HE GO TO THAT LET HIM GRADUATE THINKING LIKE A CAVE MAN - OR WHAT CENTURY IS HIS DEGREE FROM - OR<br /><br />ARE HIS DEGREES<br /><br />AUTHENTIC?<br /><br />HE IS WHO IS DISHONEST IN LITTLE IS ALSO DISHONEST IN MUCH.<br /><br />OR IS THAT THE OTHER WAY AROUND.<br /><br />DID YOU TAKE HIM AT HIS WORD?<br /><br />A MAN WHO TERRIFIES HIS WIFE IS ONE OF INTEGRITY?
