I had hoped staying silent was taking the high road. But Jennifer's relentlessly detailed public "hypotheticals"—which are clearly directed at me—are no longer just hypothetical questions. She has posed identical statements to me via email. These are extraordinarily serious allegations, apparently intended to discredit me while deflecting from a valid six-figure breach-of-contract claim. A few documented facts are worth addressing:

• Dragging a good man and his grieving family into her dispute with me is DISGUSTING. Kenny and I contemplated an ownership arrangement in exchange for a substantial contribution of materials and labor. Those contributions were never made, and we mutually agreed to terminate the entire arrangement, including the contemplated ownership interest, before his passing. We parted on GOOD TERMS and even discussed working together on future unrelated endeavors. His passing was so devastating for everyone who knew him. He was a friend then, and he would be my friend today if he was still here. I really can't articulate what a rad dude he was to anyone who didn't already know him. To the best of my knowledge, Jennifer never met him and does not know him.
• The corporate consent she is sensationalizing concerned a separate nonprofit association that was formed solely for TABC compliance. It did not concern the LLC. I have supporting documentation regarding all of this, including the contemplated arrangement and the absence of the required investment with the LLC, and I find the attempt to exploit his tragic death to advance her wacky theories absolutely abhorrent. I will not address this again or dignify the insinuations surrounding his passing by turning his personal circumstances into a public spectacle. Her desperation level and vindictiveness is off the rails for her to distort the relationship and friendship I had with Kenny as she has – which is WILDLY inappropriate. If Kenny’s family is reading this: please reach out to me privately if you want clarity. I am truly sorry from the bottom of my heart that she has involved you in our personal contract dispute and I want to put your minds at ease.
• My two former “business partners”: Their proposed ownership arrangement was conditional and never came to fruition. Our agreement was terminated following documented breaches. It was not pretty. But contrary to Jennifer's allegations, BOTH WOMEN WERE PUT ON PAYROLL even though our arrangement documented that NONE of us would take payment or profits. I have the payroll records.
• The business was funded overwhelmingly through MY personal investment and credit line. Neither one of those women could even tell you how much was spent to open the restaurant because they didn't come out of pocket for any purchases or renovations after we met. I also allowed one of them to enter the building at the end of our relationship and take boxes I had packed with their personal effects, as well as look around and retrieve additional kitchen tools, a portable Bluetooth speaker, two refrigerators, and more. I still have the video security evidence documenting what was removed, including items whose removal I dispute. What little equipment was furnished by these women was documented as being furnished to the business effort without reimbursement. If I recall correctly, only a few items worth a few hundred dollars were left with the business at termination, either way, under our contract: they stayed with the business. Dragging them into this dispute is also in very poor taste.
• Jennifer's contracts: She signed 3 agreements with me, including a lease and two purchase-related agreements. Once executed, THE TERMS OF THOSE AGREEMENTS NEVER CHANGED. Subsequent discussions about purchasing different combinations of real estate were just that—discussions-and yes the numbers for these discussions changed a few times, but there were NEVER changes to our signed agreements. No amendments, no restatements, nothing.
• The Lease and Money: I set her rent at $1/month because I genuinely wanted her to succeed and be able to pay on the OTHER agreement. She couldn't even muster the wherewithal to pay the flippin' rent. Nor did she pay the $100,000 contractually due. Not one cent toward either obligation for 15 months. ALL DOCUMENTED.
• Re. her alleged “every intention” to purchase: On August 31--just ~24 hours before our contractual closing deadline that never transpired, she told Judge Parker: "…we decided we're not going to purchase the property, and we’re going to vacate September 1st." If she was planning to vacate, when was she going to provide me notice? I'll let y'all reconcile the above statement intending to vacate with her newly professed "every intention" to purchase. Those are HER words. And they're documented ON VIDEO.
• And why am I to blame for her alleged lost profits when our SIGNED agreement expressly required her to relinquish ALL NET PROFITS from the business each month toward satisfying her $100,000 contractual obligation that went unpaid? Whatever may have been "lost" was supposed to go toward our agreement anyway...
• The court ruling: A writ of reentry addresses possession of the premises—not final ownership or title to disputed business assets. The hearing occurred August 31, the FINAL DAY of Jennifer's lease, which was never renewed. When she asked Judge Parker to extend her lease an additional six days, he declined and expressly instructed her to retrieve her items and remove them from the building that day. This is documented ON VIDEO. My concerns regarding the hearing extend well beyond disagreement with the ruling and are being addressed through the appropriate channels.
• The “hypothetical” pattern of criminal conduct: These were separate business arrangements, with entirely different facts, terms, and outcomes. Jennifer was a party to OUR transaction only. Jennifer was NEVER a party to these prior arrangements, and is making extraordinarily serious insinuations -based on incomplete information- that are absolutely worthy of a defamation lawsuit. I have documentation to refute all of her nonsensical theories. She has wild speculation dressed up as "hypothetical" questions. Further, I consider this ongoing campaign of targeted social media posts blasted in groups from Tyler to Longview to be online harassment and bullying. Jennifer has publicly insinuated that I engaged in serious criminal conduct, while I have remained silent until now. I am preserving the evidence and expressly reserve my right to pursue any legal remedies available to me.

”We see things not as they are-but as we are.”
None of the “hypothetical” accusations being made against me are a reflection of me, despite her best efforts to push that narrative. Jennifer has not satisfied the $100,000 payment obligation under our signed agreement. Rather than addressing that obligation, she continues publicly challenging the authenticity and enforceability of our contracts.

I will not address this again, no matter how wild her theories get because I AM DONE with the public BS, but BEST believe I will be saving EVERY screen shot. I will not be intimidated by increasingly outrageous and offensive allegations tho. The documents, the payment records, and the video evidence literally(!) speak for themselves. I have all of it.

Here we go again with the made up crap. Guess I’ll stew on it and address it in a day or two….

10/13/2026

For a short window of time (through year end), I will consider selling this building to a willing, able and interested buyer. Off market-no broker fees.

I will not seller finance-as that is a variation of the structure Jennifer and I designed… and that didn’t go well. So CASH or third party financing only.

I will consider selling the 8 acres and rental cabins behind the building to the west with the building as a combined transaction. This could be an excellent community property with clubhouse/similar.

Yes, I used AI for this video-it’s not perfect but it gives you an idea of the space and how it currently looks. 📨DM if interested.

Tacky comments will be deleted. 😘🫶🏼

PART 1 - HANGOUT SAGA

Okay, Everybody. Here’s what happened during the Lockout hearing before Wood County Precinct 3 Justice of the Peace Jerry Parker on August 31, 2026. This is long, but it is ALL important - please read. This is Part 1 of the drama with Jennifer regarding the court proceeding and attempted appeal. This is the hearing that Jennifer is using to say “the judge ruled in her favor.” (Which is COMICAL…)

The contract dispute (that she has made false statements about online) will be posted as PART 2 later...

I am the building owner and the original owner of the Hangout. This post is not about me losing a hearing and being salty about it. I did and I am, but I've had some time to sleep on it and I've slept off the rage-now I'm just here to INFORM THE PUBLIC. The concern here is: how an elected judge conducted the proceeding, what the court documents say occurred, and what happened when I attempted to appeal. It is also about how much financial harm was caused (and may continue to be caused) by Judge Parker’s wildly egregious and erratic judgment and courtroom behavior. Jennifer is using his ruling to assert that he "awarded her possession" of the assets inside. His ruling ABSOLUTELY DID NOT do that.

I have obtained (via public information request) the complete body-camera recording from the bailiff, the court-produced file, receipts, the public docket, the judge’s calendar, and written communications from the court. Here are the FACTS reflected in the records that support **SUBSTANTIAL** judicial misconduct and an erroneous judgment made in that courtroom by a man who lacked the authority to do so at that proceeding:

• The court-produced file contains an unsigned typed document called an “Oral Statement for the Court Hearing.” It is not visibly sworn or signed, and the exhibits it references do not appear in the produced file. It was also clearly copied over from an AI output (nice work, Jennifer) because part of the final prompt output was never deleted from the "statement" furnished to the Court. And the Court accepted that slop as some sort of authority or petition - it's still not even clear what exactly it is referenced as to the Court.
• The body-camera recording includes the entire hearing (and several minutes before and after). No oath or affirmation is audible before substantive questioning begins. No witness was sworn, and no exhibit was clearly admitted during the proceeding.
• Despite that, the signed writ states that the court acted on the tenant’s “sworn complaint” and “heard all of the evidence.” Nope and nope! Critical evidence regarding the actual purpose of the hearing (the legality of the lockout) was NEVER reviewed or taken into evidence.
• The proceeding lasted just under 11 minutes (mind you, we were the only hearing on his calendar for the day… and all he could spare was about 10 minutes and 45 seconds). I brought the lease, rent ledger, lockout notices, photographs, and other supporting documents that PROVED the lockout was LEGAL. Rather than conducting a focused inquiry into whether the commercial lockout complied with Texas law (the literal SOLE PURPOSE of the hearing), Judge Parker repeatedly focused on who owned the equipment and other personal property inside the building (a topic he had NO AUTHORITY to rule on). I repeat: he only cared to rule on a matter that was completely outside the scope of his authority for the writ of reentry hearing. And when I tried to defend my position on the ownership of the equipment (after he heard HER position), he told me I would have to take it up in another court... so another court has the right to hear why I own the assets, but his court has the right to determine why she owns them? MAKE IT MAKE SENSE. He told Jennifer in the hearing she could obtain the belongings inside but HE HAD NO RIGHT TO!! The writ itself does not address title to ANYTHING. The writ was solely regarding temporary entry into the building. THAT IS IT! Specifically, Judge Parker stated to Jennifer and her husband, “I’m letting you get your equipment back,” followed by, “Y’all need to get it out of there.” The written writ, however, granted temporary possession of the premises. It did not identify any equipment, determine ownership of personal property, or authorize its removal. (…And that is because, for the 843,018th time, Judge Parker had no authority to make that call.)

Then, when I stated, “Your Honor, I intend to appeal,” Judge Parker responded, “This is not appealable.” When I asked (in UTTER shock) for him to confirm that I just heard him correctly -that the hearing was not appealable, he reiterated that it was not. But guess what? Approximately two hours later, HIS court accepted my appeal paperwork and $54 payment. Judge Parker personally signed and approved both my appeal bond and my affirmation on appeal—documents stating that an August 31 “judgment for re-entry” had been entered and was being appealed to the Wood County Court. Yet the public case-event history contains no identifiable appeal entry, even though the court retained the approved appeal documents and recorded the payment. I never received confirmation that the appeal was perfected, transmitted, stayed, or otherwise resolved.

The court’s records also describe August 31 in materially inconsistent ways: the public docket calls it a “Hearing,” the writ describes an ex parte proceeding, and the appeal documents describe an appealable judgment. Thanks to all of his BOTCHING, I was completely unable to actually perfect the appeal and I now have a MOUNTAIN OF EVIDENCE on how much misconduct was performed at the hearing that day.

After the writ was served, I complied with it to avoid contempt, and THOUSANDS of dollars worth of equipment and other property were removed from my building: Improvements were taken down that they had no right to remove. And all that equipment that our signed contract gave me the ability to repossess within the next 24 hours were carted out of the building in just 6 hours. That ownership dispute is a separate legal/contract issue, which should have never been at issue before Judge Parker. I attempted to provide a statement regarding the complexities of the deal with Jennifer so that he would understand that the matter should be deferred to County Court in lieu of being adjudged by him, a non-lawyer JP, but he refused to hear it. The judicial-conduct issues from this hearing covers multiple issues and layers, but the part that I am most upset about is that Judge Parker orally asserted the ownership of tangible assets and removal during a summary reentry proceeding that was only supposed to address a VERY NARROW scope: whether the lockout was performed legally and if reentry was warranted—, and even the written writ only addressed temporary possession of the premises. And what a disservice to Jennifer because now she thinks she has title to property that is in dispute, and in some cases, were never even sold to her (ahem, this page). This will not go well for her if she continues to falsely rely on his judgment as some sort of "proof" that certain "assets" are "hers."

I know a lot of this is a bunch of legal mumbo jumbo, but here’s what it boils down to: Judge Jerry Parker violated his own procedures and protocols. REPEATEDLY. He didn’t document anything correctly or perform the hearing the way the law requires. He failed to follow standard protocols required of all JPs. He contradicted himself by saying I had no right to appeal and then later signing the appeal bond and affirmation. He ruled on something he had no authority to rule on because (???) he either honestly believes he has that much authority (alarming) OR perhaps he thought he would not be challenged (ALSO alarming). I don't know, but I'd love to understand why he thought his behavior on 8/31 was remotely acceptable. This man has no business sitting behind a bench anymore and needs to be suspended from office. I have submitted a sworn complaint to the State Commission on Judicial Conduct that has been received and is pending before the Commission-they will hopefully investigate all of these issues and I PRAYyyyyyyy they find the evidence supports that misconduct occurred and removal is warranted. I could not have possibly given them any more evidence to support the facts and the conduct errors that happened that day in court. If they do not pursue severe admonishment, I will immediately pursue my right for reconsideration; I will find any state legislator with an ear I can bend about the failures of the SCJC; and there are other remedies available to try and have JP Parker removed from office as well -I WILL PURSUE THEM if the SCJC fails to act on the substantial evidence I have against him. I will NOT LET UP. What he did in that courtroom was unacceptable. He ruled on 8/31 with complete impunity and disregard for the law that he is supposed to honor and uphold. He absolutely deserves to be suspended...

I am sharing this publicly because Judge Parker is an elected official, and Wood County residents deserve to know how proceedings are being conducted in their local JP court. I have the documented proof and a full recording of the hearing—this is not just me blithering over an unfavorable decision. It is offensive to me that this man has so much control, and please hear me from the rooftops, friends: If this is how an elected official handles a relatively straightforward statutory proceeding when someone like me (with a legal background) who happens to know enough to question it, I think the people of Wood County have every right to wonder what happens to people who DON’T know enough to question him. How often is procedure mishandled in his Court? How often are determinations made and ruled upon that are not actually at issue before his Court? Determinations that should have been deferred to a County Court at Law? How often does he erroneously misstate rights of citizens/business owners who are subject to his rule of law? I have all of the evidence to back up and support these claims and if ANYONE else has had an issue in his Court or is scheduled to go before him – PLEASE CONTACT ME. I will help for free. I do NOT want another person to get bent by this Judge mishandling their hearing.

Please share this with anyone in Wood County, especially residents of Hawkins and Holly Lake or anywhere in the blue area of the attached map. Stay tuned for updates. I WILL provide them.

Does anyone have a recipe they would like for me to share from when the first owner (👋🏼) opened the Hangout? Like the candied bacon burger maybs? It’s not proprietary by ANY STRETCH and I am feeling petty since someone still owes me $100,000++ and won’t respond to my requests for mediation under the contract she signed…(but I’m “the thief”🤭okayyyyy)

More soon, I PROMISE, because I have a LOT to say and I am just waiting for the right time… but for now I’m taking recipe requests and will post them one at a time starting next month!
