A Liberty County constable accused of being in cahoots with a phony Beaumont cop is back in uniform after a Travis County court granted an injunction that temporarily lifts his suspension while felony indictments are pending against him. The Texas Commission on Law Enforcement in May suspended Liberty County Pct. 6 Constable John Joslin and his chief deputy, Jim Cooper, citing an amended state law that allows the agency to take action against officers indicted on felony charges. Chris Tritico, Joslin's attorney, filed suit against the state agency, arguing in part that the suspension violates Joslin's right to due process.
