This 21 yr old is homeless and lives on the greenbelt in elm grove...I'm hoping someine can help my friend. This was her son. Elm grove said their new policy is to email only if child is absent. This man kept her son all day. Someone at elm grove apts called the police and she got her son back. School is doing nothing. The police are doing nothing. When talking to her son last night she found out that her son had played hookey with this 21 yr old before. Also this 21 yr old has an arrest record for assaulting a police officer.

Just a stab in the dark here, but since the mohter now knows this, Shouldn't she drop her son off at school or walk him to school... just make sure he gets to school. What is the school suppose to do after the fact. Law enforcement surely should be doing something, but the school. 

Polly Ester --- 12 years ago -

hope the mother is now making sure she or someone she trusts takes her child to school. that is really creepy. I would be afraid of what is going on during the time they are together.

why would a 21 year old want to spend time with an 8 year old unless he is up to no good..especially knowing he is supposed to be in school? sounds like child endangerment or something.

I would worry about this kid if he is making the choice of his own free will to skip school. He is on a very bad path if he is that balsy at age 8. not to mention spending his time with a homeless person. 

kjdp --- 12 years ago -

Her son was a walker. Until now. This guy stops kids on the greenbelt before he gets to the school. The police said there is nothing they can do. She is taking every precaution for her son but didn't know until yesterday. The school has had priblems with this guy before. On another we tested the schools security today. A friend went and sat inside the gates at school while the kids were at recess and no one questioned that person for 40 minutes. As a mom tgat concerns me greatly 

kjdp --- 12 years ago -

I'm also concerned that now that this child won't be available any longer...who will he go after next??? 

Polly Ester --- 12 years ago -

I dont think the schools can be responsible for everything that goes on with kids off of the campus. they probably do not have the staff to call on every child that is absent. they never called back when I was in school either. this parent needs to be keeping this kid on a very short leash, IMO.

sadly, that is probably true if no crime has been committed. 

Polly Ester --- 12 years ago -

what school? 

kjdp --- 12 years ago -

I agree...and so does the mom. Problem is the school says they don't have to call you when your child is absent. This apparently changed in january...they now send an email... 

kjdp --- 12 years ago -

Elm grove 

kjdp --- 12 years ago -

My child goes to KMS and I get a phone call when he is absent. 

Polly Ester --- 12 years ago -

I didn't know the schools had gates at the recess area. I guess in KW with the schools backing up to greenbelts that it isn't uncommon for parents to be around the playground area. But maybe this is a security concern you could bring to the attention of the principal. it sounds like they need to tighten things up. 

kjdp --- 12 years ago -

I agree wholeheartedly. I have nephews at that school and have been told from them that this guy hangs out there all the time. There is just no good that can come from a 21 year old man hanging out with elementary children 

Celebrity --- 12 years ago -

Elementary schools do not have to call you when a student is absent. Atleast nobody has ever called me when my kids are absent. And, they have been to two different elementary's. 

Celebrity --- 12 years ago -

I feel awful for this mom though! That is super scary! 

kjdp --- 12 years ago -

Without a doubt this mom is so scared. With all the attempted abductions and amber alerts why would an elementary school not call if a child was absent??? Most parents I know are responsible enough to call the school when their child won't be there. Knowing this 21 (I was corrected on his age) is out there just riding the greenbelts looking for a child to spend the day with SCARES the life out of me. 

Identity Crisis --- 12 years ago -

I think schools should call as soon as a child doesn't show up for school. What if they are kidnapped or hurt somewhere???I would want to know right away!!

If I knew about this guy and it were my kid...he might disappear. I would get my daddy out there and give him some cement shoes!! hahaha 

Identity Crisis --- 12 years ago -

Also, if he is homeless, where are they going? 

tredanis --- 12 years ago -

Is that the dude with the long hair that is always walking up and down KW Drive? 

kjdp --- 12 years ago -

I'm told yesterday at least...he was clean shaven and has brown hair. His name is troy. The police arrested him in February for assaulting an officer. He has also been arrested for tesspassing. 

Loki --- 12 years ago -

The police arrested him in February for assaulting an officer.

And he's not in jail? WTH!!!?? 

Warren Peace --- 12 years ago -

There's a homeless guy living in the greenbelts near Elm Grove?

Any idea where he nests? This sounds like something the community needs more information about. What else is known about this guy? Clean shaven doesn't sound too homeless. Family in the area? Height? Weight? Scars/marks/tattoos?

Someone must know more. Could this be the flasher guy too? 

SuperFantastic --- 12 years ago -

Is this the one I heard rumors about him sleeping on top of the school 

PicklesandTea --- 12 years ago -

My son is in the 5th grade at Elm Grove and has heard all about this guy from his friends. Troy was sleeping in the bushes across from the Elm Grove Community pool. We were at a scout meeting and the cops were clearing out his stuff from the bushes and found another 5th graders backpack that my son and his friends recognized. There was a Humble ISD officer on campus today walking around as the walkers were leaving. 

PicklesandTea --- 12 years ago -

Edit: Sorry, double post! 

Meme2my5 --- 12 years ago -

The police are doing nothing


I don't understand why he hasn't been charged with "contributing to the delinquency of a minor." Also, if this guy "has kept" this child from school, or prevented the child from going, that is is kidnapping. Doesn't matter if the guy just "detains' him for a day and then lets him go, it is still kidnapping at that time. The mom should be either at the police station demanding charges OR have her son take her to the 21 yr old bum and her tell him she will have him arrested immeditately. The mom has the responsibilty of getting her child to school or the child is considered truant and in some cases the mom can be charged with truancy on behalf of the child. The mom really needs to have her voice heard and soon. I think it is terrible for this bum to get away with this. 

Warren Peace --- 12 years ago -

The police said there is nothing they can do.

This surprises me. I wonder if it's a similar greenbelt jurisdiction issue that came up when police started saying they would begin ticketing cyclists without helmets, and then recanted while clarifying they would only ticket if cyclists were observed crossing streets with helmets. I've never worn a helmet either and probably never will. Freedom baby.

I feel tempted to go find him myself. I don't mean that threateningly. But if there's truth to the story about him seeking out kids, I just feel compelled to find him and assess. 

Identity Crisis --- 12 years ago -

This may be the beer talking, but I say we " angry mob" the guy. Fiery sticks, pitch forks, and baseball bats.
Who's with me???
I am kidding I promise...... (Maybe) 

allofus --- 12 years ago -

hes... at the elm grove pool sitting on a swing in a black hat.... right now.. (at least 5 minutes ago when i passed the pool 

Loki --- 12 years ago -

I just don't get HPD. They will smack you down with a citation in a heartbeat (for anything that brings in cash), but can't be bothered to do their jobs when it comes to investigating an issue.

And yeah, I have real world examples....

Filing a report with them is about as useful as chucking it in the trash. 

allofus --- 12 years ago -

Passed him on the way home every day this week... he seemed a little "off". a little too friendly with all the kids going home.. almost seemed like he had his little "posse" of elementary students... my hubby wants me driving to pick up the kids now... 

Loki --- 12 years ago -

hes... at the elm grove pool sitting on a swing in a black hat.... right now.. (at least 5 minutes ago when i passed the pool

Isn't that trespassing since he's not likely to be paid up on KSA dues?

Go forth HPD, round him up. 

kjdp --- 12 years ago -

Ok...here is what I know...after a meeting with school officials today they should be sending out a letter tomorrow. This mom is totally frantic so please sont blame her. This could happen to ANY of our children. We allow our kids to walk in groups. We allow our kids to ride bikes and play outside. This child was not alone. He is the one who was asked to stay. This guys name is Troy King. It is said he went to KPark and dropped out. According to the child Troy goes to a friendshouse on a reregular basis to clean up. This guy met these kids at Elm Grove after school when they were playing football waiting for their parents to pick them up....This is where they meet him. He introduces himself as a 5th graders cousin. Please talk to your kids.

kjdp --- 12 years ago -

allofus --- 12 years ago -

This is scary. With school almost out, he will be able to be around even more.
