Q Research General #24562: End Of An Era? It Was Over Before It Began Edition
Small potatoes on the world stage, I know, but something strange be goin' on in Southeast Tx. This man is closely connected to Dade's groupies, which includes a highly-visible, alcoholic, local celebrity lawyer named Crenshaw; cousin to Congressman Dan Crenshaw.
This man is very high profile to just be a constable. I've never seen a constable promoted in such an aggrandizing way.
Just a strange story. One of the kids he alledgedly threatened with his gun was his own daughter.
Had this been (you), or me, we would have been immediately taken into custody and taken straight to the old hoosegow. No hospital for us unconnected peasants.
Vidor Police investigating alleged gun altercation involving Orange County constable
VIDOR - Vidor Police Department investigators confirmed they are investigating an incident in which a local constable allegedly pulled a gun and threatened to shoot several children while intoxicated.
Police Chief Rod Carroll confirmed the investigation is ongoing but declined to give further details.
The incident report released by VPD shows a call made at 1:05 a.m. Sunday from a woman who said her child called her crying. The caller said her ex-husband, Matt Ortego, pulled a gun out and threatened to shoot her child and other children in the home and that Ortego was "extremely intoxicated."
Then at 2:11 a.m. the dispatcher comments show the male subject, Ortego, being taken to St. Elizabeth Hospital in Beaumont.
Five Vidor police units and one Orange County Sheriff's Office deputy responded to the home on Timberlane. Ortego is the Orange County Precinct 4 Constable.
Orange Newsmedia left a message with Ortego's office seeking comment.
Earlier this year he announced his intent to run for reelection, as has Orange County Sheriff's Capt. Joey Jacobs. The primary election is in March.
No arrests were made at the time and the case is under investigation, police said.

Q Research General #7125: We Stand TOGETHER In This FIGHT Edition
Investors See Big Opportunities In Opioid Addiction Treatment
Every fake crisis presents an huge $Multi-Billion money maker opportunity. Now a global cash cow. And when it comes to opioid addiction, investors and businesses are seeing a big opportunity in addiction treatment. Private equity firms or public companies bought or invested in addiction treatment centers and other so-called behavioral health companies in 2014 and 2015 alone.
The Mental Health Parity Act of 2008 requires insurers to cover mental health care as they would cover physical health care.
"Mental health parity was the beginning. We saw a big benefit. And then the Affordable Care Act was very positive for our industry," says Joey Jacobs, Acadia's CEO. He spoke at an investor conference last month.
Obamacare is driving their growth in part because so many more people have health insurance, and in particular because of a provision in the law that allows people up to age 26 to stay on their parents' insurance policies. That's the age of many opioid and heroin abusers.
Suddenly there's a huge stream of cash for Acadia and other companies to tap into.

But addiction is certainly a big part of the business. It has more than 100 inpatient detox and rehab centers and runs 110 opioid treatment programs, better known as methadone clinics, which it bought from private equity firm Bain Capital in 2014 for $1.18 billion.
Bain, which was founded by Mitt Romney, had purchased CRC Health, a chain of treatment centers, in 2005 for $720 million. It then bought at least 20 more rehab centers and then added a Massachusetts-based chain of methadone clinics in 2014 for $58 million, just before selling the entire package to Acadia.
investor conference, the company referred to the rising use of heroin as a "favorable industry tailwind" and predicted its revenue would continue to grow.
