Exclusive: Lawyer of Grand Prairie councilman charged with assault says viral video doesn't tell the whole story
CBS News Texas is hearing exclusively from the lawyer representing Grand Prairie Councilman Mike Del Bosque. The attorney said the video showing his client allegedly assaulting a man doesn't tell the whole story of what happened that day. Exclusive video released Wednesday is causing controversy in Grand Prairie. It shows Councilman Del Bosque allegedly assaulting a real estate broker in April. Police arrested and charged Del Bosque with misdemeanor assault and criminal mischief. "My response is the video that was shown does not show the events that took place before the altercation in the parking lot, Phillip Linder said. Attorney Phillip Linder represents Del Bosque. The video shows the councilman allegedly punching 60-year-old David Collantes, pushing him to the ground, and breaking his cell phone. It happened outside a medical office building on Carrier Parkway, which was owned by Del Bosque but in the process of being turned over to another owner after a default judgment. "David Collantes entered our client's private property through a back door," Linder said. "It was in a private office, uninvited. The female staff felt threatened, and when asked to leave, he used expletives," said Linder. Linder said Collantes and three other men entered the building and wouldn't leave when asked. "It really shouldn't surprise me how an attorney and politician can really twist the truth tighter than a large German pretzel that you could buy at the state fair," Collantes said. Collantes said Linder's allegations simply aren't true. "The people there that day were myself and another woman. Not two men, another woman and a male, so there's three people," Collantes said. "I never entered his business in the back door." Linder believes Del Bosque was acting in self-defense. "I've been talking with the D.A. She's given me till next Friday to produce our video, our photographs and our statement, which we're working on putting together," Linder said. "What happened was not self-defense, right? Mr. Del Bosque is not law enforcement, and if he believed that there was something wrong, what's the first thing we do? We call 911 and let the police handle it," Collantes said. Grand Prairie Mayor Ron Jensen sent CBS News Texas the following statement: "I am deeply concerned about what occurred, and the discredit the Councilmember's actions have brought to the City. I have directed City staff to place a vote to censure on the agenda for the next City Council meeting. The City Council will have the opportunity to respond accordingly on August 5." "I would ask them to wait for all the facts to come out, but their city council is their city council," Linder said. "I'm surprised it took this long. I mean, this the assault happened April 4th. Mr. Del Bosque was arrested April 10th, and they're getting around to it now almost four months later," Collantes said. Both sides have very different hopes for the future. "I hope that the Dallas County District Attorney will fairly, and I do mean fairly, properly prosecute this case that will start the restoration of my faith in the legal system," Collantes said. "We're hoping the outcome is the case either doesn't get filed or gets dismissed once it is filed," Linder said. "I mean, he was defending his office staff. The what's not shown on the video was that this man was very threatening." Collantes said it was the councilman who was threatening, even to Collantes' wife, who he said came with him to the property. "I cannot protect my wife from Mr. Del Bosque. That's something I have to live with, and that's why I'm not going to give this up," Collantes said. "I'm still working on getting statements from all of the staff. Some of them may have cell phone video and photographs that we're working on getting," Linder said. The August 5th Grand Prairie City Council meeting, where a vote on whether to censure the councilman is expected to happen, will be held at 6:30 p.m. at City Hall.

Arrested on 16 animal cruelty charges, Davie farm owner speaks out as he comes out of jail
A local farm sits empty of animals and children after Davie police arrested its owner Thursday on 16 counts of animal cruelty. Officers said the animals at "Family Farms" were severely underfed, prompting their removal and charges against owner Robert Hoover. According to an arrest report, police conducted covert investigations and observed alarming conditions on the property. "Both times the bovines on the property have their spinal columns, ribs, and hip bone protruding that would suggest they are being underfed," the report states. Officers also noted, "The bovines did not have any visible food in their pens and relied on patrons purchasing food from the business to feed them." The report continues, "The bovines stampede to visitors when they are presented with food that suggests they are hungry and not being fed." Hoover walked out of Broward County Jail on Friday night, where he stopped and answered questions from reporters. Here is what he had to say: "What I'd like to say is that the town of Davie did an overreach. We rescued animals. We've had these cows that are the black cows that are over 25 years old. We feed them. We have vet bills, we have food. We take care of our animals. We have a white cow that's skinny. That was a rescue that we got from Okeechobee, and that was done for a near, very nice purpose on our part. Nobody came and asked us questions. Town of Davie came in. They cut the power. They came in with two giant SWAT vehicles. They jumped out with ARs. They ran all over with their ARs. We were in the middle. We had kids out there and everything else. They had no concern for what really was taking place. What they should do is they should have done an investigation. They should have said, 'Okay, so let's walk around and talk and look at the animals,' and then they could have gotten a true picture and an understanding of what was taking place. The reality is, is it's either a land grab because they want their tax money or what—I don't know. But it's not-they're using the animals as just a platform. It's an easy item for you guys and for the people to say, 'Oh, there's animals in need. We need to protect them.' Well, this is true. We've been a family farm for all of my life. I've been farming. We take care of our animals. We rely on them. We don't use them for slaughter. We use them for education. We have many employees. We always feed our animals. We have a lot of food on hand and everything else. So, what they should have done is they should have come in and they should have done an investigation that was a real investigation, instead of making a dramatic event for you guys to try to create a scenario that puts us as if we're bad people. When the truth is they have hurt our reputation. Because now what can the public know or believe or understand when they have put out? Every day the water has changed completely so they can say whatever they want, but every day we change the water and give them fresh water. Number one. Number two, the ponies are of weight and perfect. We are building a pen in the back because we're going to retire those—they're part of our family. And so we were going to retire those and get more of them. We have perfect ponies that are very healthy and very happy, along with the rest of our animals—because we consider them to be our friends and our family, a part of what we do. We rely on them. It's not you guys; you have pets. We all understand how you connect with those creatures. This isn't something that—we're not monsters. We love them. We treat them the same as our pets. And so that's how I respond to your question about that. Those are allegations, and it's a sad scenario that the truth will come out. I hope. I will pursue legal recourse in this scenario, but the truth will come out. Number one, the cows. There's three black cows. Those cows are 25 years old. They're old ladies. Have you ever thought about the scenario that they're not always going to be muscular? But we don't just discard them because they're old. They're our friends. Maybe it's better for the public eye that we stay with young, freshly healthy animals, but they've become part of our family, and so maybe against better judgment, I have kept those as our creatures that we love and we care for. That's number one for the old black cows. Then there's one small white cow—that cow, we rescued that cow. All of our animals get veterinarian care, they get medicine, they're all healthy. That was a rescue animal that we're fattening up. So, are we the bad people? Because this narrative was started because we ended up acquiring a white cow that was undernourished—that we're the ones that are caring for? Isn't it Davie's responsibility, if they're going to do this type of an action, to investigate properly what really is going on behind the scenes? We're a family farm. We've been a family farm for all of this. This is what I do. It's who I am. So, what is going on behind the scenes is the question I think that should really be asked—and that will come out." Hoover's attorney, David Braun, pushed back on the allegations, calling them unfounded and pointing to Hoover's longstanding commitment to his animals. "I've been to the farm dozens of times and I know what lengths he takes to take care of his animals and make sure they have what they need," Braun said. Braun also attributed the accusations to personal grievances rather than genuine concern. "I think it's just, some of it is a lack of understanding of how a farm operates and some of it is just downright ex-girlfriends, ex-wives, other folks that have not been happy with something, some aspect or dealings with Mr. Hoover," he said. He added that Hoover has faced similar claims in the past, all of which were dismissed. "Their instinct is to just go for that allegation of animal abuse and it's really a shame, too bad," Braun said. As a condition of Hoover's release, he is prohibited from possessing any animals.
