Sulphur Springs Man Jailed For Assaulting An Officer With A Knife
A 21-year-old Sulphur Springs man was jailed early Friday morning for allegedly assaulting an officer with a knife. The arrest marked the second time in two weeks the man has been booked into Hopkins County jail, according to arrest and jail reports.
Sulphur Springs Police Officers responded at 7:45 a.m. June 24, 2022, on Tate Street at Texas Street to a disturbance. Sgt. Brandon Mayes reported seeing a man he recognized as Conner Hogan, a man he and Officer Derrick Williams had dealt with just 2 hours before at the same location. In arrest reports, Mayes noted Hogan and Officer Williams standing close together, with Williams holding Hogan’s right arm, trying to talk to the 21-year-old.
As Mayes approached, Officer Derrick Williams called out to him regarding the man’s other hand. When Mayes went to grab the man’s hands, he noticed Hogan to be holding a knife aggressively against his body, the officer noted in police reports.
Mayes reported grabbing the hand holding the knife and kicked Hogan’s leg out from under him. Officers then went to the ground with Hogan. Mayes tried to get the knife away from him. During the struggle, the man continued to move the knife around and cut the top part of Williams’ forearm, Sgt. Mayes alleged in arrest reports.
Mayes continued instructing Hogan to drop the knife but Hogan failed to do so. After finally getting the knife from him, the officers were able to get one handcuff on Hogan, but the man continued to resist officers’ efforts to get the other cuff on. Mayes reported using “pain compliance,” striking Hogan in the ribs more than once after which Hogan reportedly complied by giving officers his other hand for cuffing.
Hogan was transported to Hopkins County jail, where he was booked in at 9:35 a.m. June 24. on an aggravated assault of a public servant with a deadly weapon charge. The Sulphur Springs man, who jail reports show is also known by Coca, was later served with a warrant for the June 15 criminal mischief charge, officers noted in arrest reports.
According to the June 15 arrest report, police responded to a report of Hogan running from a disturbance on Texas Street around 4:48 p.m. While en route to the address, SSPD Officer Victor Reyna reported seeing a male waving him down on Bellview Street. He requested another officer to contact the man while he continued to disturbance address.
There, Reyna spoke with a woman who told him Hogan had thrown a spare tire from her Jeep at the Jeep’s rear window, breaking the glass. She then showed the officer a video of the incident. Reyna requested the officer to take Hogan into custody and transport him to jail.
Hogan was taken to jail, where he was booked in at 6:39 p.m. Wednesday, June 15, 2022, on a misdemeanor charge of criminal mischief resulting in $100-$750 worth of damage. He remained in Hopkins County jail until his release Thursday, June 23, 2022, on a $1,000 bond on the criminal mischief charge
The 21-year-old Sulphur Springs man remained in Hopkins County jail Saturday morning, June 25, 2022, on the aggravated assault charge and warrant. Hogan’s bonds totaled $120,000 —$100,000 on the aggravated assault of a peace officer charge and $20,000 on the warrant, according to jail reports.

United Way Distributes Additional Funds Raised Over the 2020 Campaign Goal To Local Groups
Hopkins County United Way on Friday, June 24, 2022, distributed $53,689.64 in additional funds raised over the 2020 campaign goal of $150,000 to local groups.
“We are so excited to be able to give back to the organizations so much more,” said HCUW 2022-2023 President Kristy Moseley.
She and Mike Horne, who chaired the 2020-2021 campaign, expressed thanks to the generous people of Hopkins County, whose contributions to the campaign exceeded the goal by $53,689.64.
“We’re not the reason United Way is successful. We are successful and are able to give out these excess allocations from my campaign in 2020 because of our community — all the generous donors, the businesses and individuals. And, we’re successful because of organizations like y’all, that give people a good reason to give money to United Way,” Horne told the representatives from the nonprofits invited to the meeting to receive additional funding. “I want to personally thank y’all for being there so we can give you the money, because without your organizations and the wonderful things you do in our communities, there’s really not a reason to have United Way. So thank you.”
The funding was distributed to all except one of the agencies allocated funding in 2020 campaign. No funding was allocated to Jehovah Jireh Food Pantry because the group closed on May 23, 2022. Funding was designated based on the percent of the original goal each agency was allocated.
Among the recipient agencies recognized to receive additional funding at the June 24, 2022, HCUW distribution were:
- Circle 10 Council of Boy Scouts of America
- Bright Star Baseball

“Thank you. You just keep doing what you’re doing and we’ll keep doing what we are doing. Kristy was 2021-2022 campaign chair and she went over her goal, so I hope this time next year we are doing this same meeting and giving out excess allocations. Emily Glass is our new campaign chair that will start raising funds the end of September into October. We hope to just keep hitting our goals and giving out more money,” Horne said.
He also extended thanks to HCUW Executive Secretary Susan Berning, “the backbone that really keeps United Way going,” and the HCUW Board members for their “support and all you do.”

Supreme Court Order Overturns Roe v. Wade
The U.S. Supreme Court today (Friday, June 24, 2022) issued an order to overturn Roe v. Wade, the case that made abortion constitutionally legal 50 years ago.
According to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland, the Justice Department will work to protect and advance reproductive freedom. The agency will protect providers and those seeking abortions in states where it is legal, but will stand by the FDA approved use of the drug Mifepristone for medication abortions.
The court’s ruling would enable states to ban abortion; nearly half are expected to do so.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and Rep. Bryan Slaton praised the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade and leaving it up to states regarding the matter.
“Texas is a pro-life state, and we have taken significant action to protect the sanctity of life. Texas has also prioritized supporting women’s healthcare and expectant mothers in need to give them the necessary resources so that they can choose life for their child. I signed laws that extended Medicaid health care coverage to six months post-partum, appropriated $345 million for women’s health programs, and invested more than $100 million toward our Alternatives to Abortion program. This critical program provides counseling, mentoring, care coordination, and material assistance, such as car seats, diapers, and housing to mothers in need,” Gov. Abbott stated in a June 24 press release regarding Roe v. Wade.
District 2 Rep. Bryan Slaton also commended the Supreme Court for “standing strong to affirm the sanctity of human life,” in answer to decades spent praying and fighting to have the landmark case and law overturned. Now, Slaton said, Texas must stand firm by never forgetting or repeating the “evil that was allowed to fester in this country for nearly 50 years. For millions of innocent children, the light of life and liberty was extinguished, their futures erased, as they were killed in the womb. In this evil, our country has been complicit.”
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton responded to the Supreme Court ruling be declaring June 24 an annual holiday for the AG’s Office in recognition of what he called “an end to a half century of the unconstitutional and unconscionable national right to abortion.” The office closing, Paxton said, honors “the nearly 70 million unborn babies killed in the womb since 1973.”
Texas Congressman Pat Fallon (District 4) considers the overturning of Roe v. Wade, which he called a “massive federal overreach,” “a huge win for life and an ever bigger win for the United States of America.” Along with a photo of him outside the court building, Fallon in a social media post he has been “committed myself to always fight for the sanctity of life,” and feels “blessed to be on sight and bear witness to HISTORY!”
“At the end of the day — unborn children are no less alive than you and me, for precious life begins at conception. It doesn’t stop here; we must continue our fight to protect life,” Fallon posted on another social media account as his official statement at 10:26 a.m. June 24, 2022.
Before the Supreme Court decision, enacted in Texas was Senate Bill 8, which prohibits abortion after 6 weeks of pregnancy and would allow private individuals to sue doctors who perform illegal abortions or individuals who in anyway assist in an abortion. Texas law as approved in SB 8 would allow no exceptions to the abortion ban. No exceptions are allowed for rape, incest
Texas is one of 13 states that enacted so called “trigger laws” prior to the news of Friday’s Supreme Court order.
According to a legal advisory issued Friday by Paxton, Texas’ trigger law would go into effect 30 days after a judgement is issued by the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court issued an opinion Friday; not a judgement.“
Texas’ trigger law would making performing an abortion at any point during a pregnancy a felony. Approximately 2 dozen states are also reported to have near-total or six-week bans on abortion already in place before the court decision.
“Now the trigger bill we passed last session will take effect, but we cannot stop at pre-Roe laws. We must also completely and utterly abolish abortion in Texas. We must do so in a way that upholds and honors the 14th Amendment, and truly applies the equal protection of the laws to all people. I look forward to re-introducing the bill to abolish abortion next session, and I invite every member in the Texas Legislature to join me,” Rep. Slaton said.
