A Harris County constable's office had to handcuff one of their own as part of a bizarre case: a deputy accused of robbing businesses while in uniform.
HOUSTON, Texas -- Three days after Bobby Joe Espinosa was fired from his job as a Harris County Precinct 4 Deputy Constable and charged with theft by a public servant, his former boss is speaking. Espinosa is accused of stealing large amounts of cash from victims while donning his official uniform.
Investigators say he would wear his Precinct 4 uniform during the robberies and disconnect security cameras before forcing employees to take money out of the cash register and tip jar.
