A Special Editorial – Klein Steps In

I have chosen to answer some of the radicals here in Southeast Texas, who seem more and more to come from the republican party, rather than from the rank and file.

Let me first say I love and enjoy political debate. I am friends with democrats, republicans and everyone in between. Sometimes we serve in the choir together for the betterment of Southeast Texas, and sometimes we end up in small skirmishes inside the party. But no matter what, we come out singing the same tune 99% of the time.

What I am about to talk to you about under my signature is not now, nor will it ever be, singing the same song. And that is okay too. As this entire matter I will speak of today is going to hit hard inside the Republican Party, and equally in a small community outside the walls of Beaumont, Texas.

As I have received an estimated 30 plus calls threatening my life, threatening my and my company’s future, I will tell you what I tell you what I tell them. There is a time when you must stand up, be counted, and do the right thing. And of course to F off.

The matter I am going to talk to you about is the rape of a small, young child, and a cover-up of criminal activity by two officials of the County of Jefferson. As well, I hold licenses where I am a mandated reporter of criminal activity. I have only had to do what I am doing publicly and privately today, one other time.

This past fall, Jefferson County Constable Alan Roberts was in his office when he noticed Constable Werner and Judge Justin Chesson entering with a young child. He described the child as about 11 to 14 years old. He states in both his Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department interview and his submission to the state of Texas that he and Jefferson County Deputy Adam Lovett overheard conversations between Werner and Chesson using very loud voices, telling the little girl that she was lying about her grandfather having sex with her. They were also explaining the law of lying (perjury) to a police officer or public official. They told her they would arrest her if she didn’t stop.

Later that day, they learned that the suspect, Marc Marceaux, was a good friend of Chesson’s family, and he had come by the office asking to talk to the little girl and tell her to stop talking about these made-up things she was saying earlier in the day. She had already told a counselor that Marceaux had been having sex with her for many years, and she wanted it to stop. Marceaux advised that he wanted to do anything to get the girl to stop.  Both Werner and Chesson agreed to speak with the girl.

The meeting between the little girl and Chesson and Werner was had, but most everyone in the office heard it, and the little girl came out hysterically crying and said, “Nobody believes me.” At the same time, the counselor who received the original outcry was in the process of working with the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office, the Garth House, and witnesses (family members). The child was removed from the care and custody of Marceaux after the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office advised Chesson and Werner not to contact the child and began working with the Jefferson County District Attorney. This information was learned by the Review through state, county, and other documents and recordings made by various angry and upset law enforcement officers.

According to media reports, the following were being undertaken: Magistrate DeRouen tells KFDM that an Emergency Protective Order is allowed under certain circumstances, and this case is one of them. He says it’s especially helpful because it’s a court order, so even if Marceaux is released on accusation, the order remains in effect, unlike bond conditions that go away if a defendant is released on accusation. The order remains in effect until December 8 at midnight.

In addition to the $200,000 bond, the magistrate ordered Marceaux to avoid any contact with the child, wear a GPS monitor if he’s released, and remain in Jefferson County.

In reports to the files in the case, Chesson called detectives and demanded the opportunity to apologize to the child. He was told not to contact the child for any reason. As well, Werner was told the same thing.

On September 10, 2025, Marceaux was arrested at his home. During the interview, Marceaux admitted he had told the mandated reporter that he had been having sex with the child.

Concerned with the case, one of the detectives is said to have called the district attorney’s office with his concerns about Chesson and Werner not reporting an outcry and trying to intimidate the child because the grandfather was a friend of the family. Sick to their stomachs over all of it, the investigators began to talk to their commanders as they understood that the case may be compromised, even with the confession to a counselor that he was having sex with the child.

According to media reports and documents reviewed by the Review, KFDM obtained a probable cause affidavit from Magistrate DeRouen for the arrest of Marceaux. It indicates that on Tuesday, September 9, a therapist employed by Spindletop contacted the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office, stating that during a therapy session, Marceaux admitted to sexually assaulting the child. “Marceaux told us he was waiting for us to show up because of what he told the therapist,” according to the affidavit. The Detective Supervisor says Marceaux told them he’d been touching the child for years. They brought him to the interview room at the Sheriff’s Office downtown and read him his Miranda rights. They say he admitted to sexually assaulting the child about 1 1/2 to 2 years ago.

Then, after the media broadcast it, the story took a life of its own. And the cover-up began. The district attorney’s office now had to decide whether to prosecute a judge and a constable for trying to influence a child rape victim not to talk to officials and protect a child rapist. Not to mention the attempted apology and cover-up. At the same time, the detectives and the command in the sheriff’s office were furious and wanted someone to face charges for hurting the little girl further.

The crimes they considered were witness intimidation by both Chesson and Werner, failure to report an outcry as the child kept telling both that she was not lying, and the more she said she was not lying, the louder they got at telling her she could go to jail.

After seeing no action being taken by the detectives, former Deputy Constable Alan Roberts made the heroic and bold decision to report the incident to TCOLE and the state Judicial Commission. However, according to Judge Chesson, he has never been under investigation for his OBVIOUS violation of Texas Criminal Law, as well as Werner’s violation (s).

So, according to Roberts, he filed two documents. The first was a “Misconduct” report to the State Judicial Commission, which, according to a local attorney, was never filed. After hearing this, we received a copy of the certified mail receipt submitted to us from our media source that gave us the documents and the backups from the state. Here that is:

So, we are satisfied that both the state and the commission are in receipt of the document.

Then, as we are working on all of this, the phone rings, and it is a great political friend from the north in DC. He asks what in the hell I am doing working on a vacation weekend. My response was that someone had to do it, and I told him what I was working on. Then his bombshell.

“Why are you falling into their trap. You are smarter than that. People like to play the game Gochya. There is no way to win that game. You just play and play and play until there is some type of point spread, then the game is over. Who in the hell gives a flying fuck, Klein, what agency was reported to? Think about it. It is a lost leader that means nothing. The event still happened. The meeting between the child and the two elected sickos still happened, and nothing was reported. And the state has its case pending, and whoever the sheriff is has told her gang to sit back and watch what these weirdoes are going to say to help her case. Or in retrospect, Klein, the sheriff, is going to get busted herself for not at least filing the charges against the judge and the police officer for failure to report interference in a child crime, and witness intimidation on both of their backs. My bet is with the sheriff.”

So, then we have the real discussion.

“Klein, you have pledged yourself as an advocate for young people and those who have been abused. Now go be an advocate. Go stand up for this little girl and what those two monsters did to her by not reporting it. They should have to give up their jobs and face a jury.”

Then it came to me.

I am announcing today that I have decided to shepherd two sets of complaints to the state of Texas and the Jefferson County District Attorney’s office to have these men removed from office and/or file charges against them for their alleged crimes. And if the district attorney won’t do it, then we will go to the Attorney General of the state of Texas, and if that doesn’t work, we will go to the Federal Attorney General’s office for Child Victims.

Ya, if we cannot get the local district attorney, the sheriff’s office, or at least get them to name a special prosecutor, then we will go to Attorney General Paxton. And then on to the Trump administration.

It stops here. It stops now. And we over here at the Review have the contacts on all three levels.

Friends, I have a legal and a fiduciary obligation to the citizens of the great state of Texas. The laws broken here at the behest of a little girl raped by a sick man, then two more men, this time elected officials, who try to browbeat her into being quiet because the man is a friend of the judge and his family? That is sick at best if it is all true, as I have read these documents.

As to the lawyer who keeps jumping up and down screaming it is not true and a setup in a political year? Well, if that is the case, these investigations and grand jury review of the evidence should either indict these two, or say they did nothing wrong to this little girl, that all she wanted was to trust a cop and a judge. Both of whom failed her. And then they want to go apologize to her for being wrong?

We are getting ready to find out. I have set aside $15,000 for lawyers to help me with this, and I have started a document drop with a timeline and evidence to back up that timeline.

Or it could be easy to resign from office, both of them, and do the right thing.

I have nothing against either man or their families. I cannot remember meeting any of them. But when you screw up that badly and do not report an outcry for a little girl getting raped by their grandfather? Who admits it? There is something very wrong with you. Very Very wrong.

We will keep you up to date on all of this. Should it affect the election – HELL YES. The judge should resign, the county judge should appoint someone until the election, and the constable who listened to the JP should learn a big lesson.

Today, we are going to file a Brady Notice both on the judge and the constable if they do not resign. And please, do not doubt us.

To the citizens of Fannett and Hampshire, you deserve better, and you can fix it. Before you go to the polls, think about this – WHAT IF IT WAS YOUR DAUGHTER?

Many scream that they want to stop the coverups and the political corruption in Jefferson County. Okay, let’s start here. And both are republicans…
