Medical Board Witnesses Blast Sheriff Roberts In Court
In explosive testimony during the criminal trial of Winkler County sheriff Robert Roberts, the Executive Director of the Texas Medical Board and a Board investigator buried Roberts and his cohorts from the stand yesterday. They described the apathetic and even intimidating responses they received when they expressed concerns over the activities of the local officials. Mari Robinson, the executive director, testified that the Board was intentionally deceived by the sheriff, and when she contacted County Attorney Scott Tidwell was dismissed.
Linda Lancaster, an investigator with the medical board, said she was frightened by an encounter with the sheriff while in Kermit obtaining medical records for the investigation. Roberts approached Lancaster and another investigator that was with her, Marla Brooks, and in what she described as a “curt” and “authoritative” manner, told them they were at cross purposes in the same investigation.
The second Winkler County nurse at the center of the saga, Vickie Galle, also took the stand and testified that Roberts made a very strange statement about former hospital administrator Stan Wiley’s having discontinued peer review at Winkler Memorial.
“’Good, that’s the way I want it,’” Galle said Roberts told her.
A former Texas Ranger, and friend of Roberts, has testified that the sheriff’s investigation was “a mess”.
