Special Investigation Lands East Texas Parolee in Jail With $105k Bond
Most of us try not to make the same mistake twice, it’s always good to learn from your prior mistakes but one person on parole out of Cherokee County wishes he would have learned his lesson the first time. On Thursday, July 7th the Cherokee County Special Investigations Unit arrested Christopher Nichols on his way to check in with his Parole Officer as he had crystal ice methamphetamine, Xanax, and marijuana inside his vehicle.
The details were released on social media by the Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office days after the arrest took place. This special operation included law enforcement personnel from the Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office, Jacksonville Police Department, and Bullard Police Department. The incident began like so many other busts as a traffic stop was made on the suspect vehicle around 4:00 pm on Highway 69 just north of Rusk, Texas.
