Cop Gave Homeless Man Poop Sandwich. Now He's a Police Chief in a South Texas Town.
A former San Antonio police officer who got fired years ago after allegations he left a sandwich stuffed with feces for a homeless man has been promoted to police chief.
Matthew Luckhurst took over as chief in Benavides on June 1st. The small community of about 1,100 people in Duval County sits roughly 150 miles south of San Antonio. He makes $28 an hour in the job.
Back in May 2016, while still with the San Antonio Police Department, Luckhurst allegedly put dog feces on bread inside a Styrofoam container and placed it near a sleeping homeless man downtown. The man never ate it. Luckhurst has said all along he only meant for the guy to throw the container away. Around the same time, other allegations surfaced that he had used the women’s restroom at the bike patrol unit and smeared a brown substance on the toilet seat.
SAPD fired him over the incidents. He appealed, briefly got his job back around 2019, but an arbitrator upheld the termination in 2020.
Benavides hired Luckhurst as an officer in 2023. Then on April 30, 2026, the city council voted to make him chief.
According to Axios, the Epstein files revealed that Governor Wes Moore has been involved with Peter Thiel’s creepy billionaire society, Dialog. I’m less concerned about his participation in these creepy events and more concerned that he continues to lie to Marylanders about it.
So let me get this straight…
We’re now being told JD Vance used the Situation Room to lead “war room” meetings about the Epstein fallout.
Allegations of Trump sexually abusing minors?
I thought the Situation Room was for actual wars.
Trump keeps telling everyone to move on while the Epstein story keeps getting bigger and closer to home.
Then BOOM.
We’re in a war with Iran.
A war nobody voted for, nobody wanted, and few can clearly explain.
Straits of Hormuz closed.
Gas prices skyrocket.
The entire news cycle changed overnight.
Funny how quickly Epstein disappeared from the headlines.
You can outrun a news cycle.
The print and legacy news media is a joke.
You can’t outrun Epstein forever.
WE are watching.
WE are not stupid.
WE are united in the Tired of the Bullshit party.
You never see these politicians who talks about white and white predators. Who are raping children?. abuse of children. But they love talk about black and black violence.. enough is enough.
Carolyn Howard’s home was vandalized with racial slurs, swastikas, and hateful messages in a disturbing act of racism and intimidation. This kind of hate has no place in any community. No one should have to live in fear or be targeted because of the color of their skin. We must continue standing together against racism, fear, and VIOLENCE in all its forms.
