Felony Arrests In Angelina County March 15 – 20

There have been plenty of arrests in Angelina County over the past few days, but not many mugshots. I believe that is to combat scrapers like Busted, which show mugshots of anyone arrested and blast them all over Facebook.

If the jail waits a week to put the mugshot up, the Facebook auto post doesn't have a photo, so that seems to be a good plan. Anyone can go to the Angelina County Jail website anytime and see mugshots, but now there is less of a chance that someone with a misdemeanor charge will have their face plastered on Facebook.

Felony arrests are taken a little more seriously, and if someone in the community is in jail for a felony, it is in the public's interest to know. Choosing who you associate with in life is a big decision, and you can use this information to figure that out.

Man That Attacked A Dog With A Machete Back In Jail

On January 6, 2023, Jesus Aguilar was the center of an animal cruelty complaint. The Angelina County Sheriff's Office was called to the Twin Oaks Subdivision.

According to KTRE the person said Aguilar came to their residence, got out of his vehicle, and started walking toward their house with a machete. The homeowner's dog was barking at Aguilar.

Then he started chopping the dog with the machete over and over, cutting the dog deeply multiple times, and then left the scene. He is back in jail for the same charge now, so he likely has had his day in court and was found guilty or is about to go to trial.
