Porchman Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 KTRK just announced Wayne Dolcefino has resigned after 27 years with the station. It's been a while since he has posted a report. Anybody know what's going on?The timing is interesting considering the indictment of Trevino who he investigated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylejack Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Illegal or unethical tactics? Maybe they wouldn't give him a raise he felt he deserved? It's a mystery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
little frau Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I have always thought that one of his "subjects" would seek revenge some day, only I thought he would go the way of Hoffa.Surely the whole story will come out in due time.

Slick Vik Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 He pressed on with the story on Trevino despite warnings and this is what he knew would happen. No sympathy here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedScare Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Trevino was indicted. Do you prefer that our elected criminals be allowed to commit their crimes in peace, without harrassment from reporters? The indictments vindicated Dolcefino.

totheskies Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Yeah, I'm still really uncomfortable with how this went down. If the Trevino story was truly why Wayne Dolcefino got fired, then someone needs to tell KTRK that they're not doing their job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Victor Trevino and I know what's going on, he will be vindicated when this is all said and done, it's nothing more than racism and a political witch hunt.

Trevino is not a bad guy I've known him for 20 years. The only thing he may be guilty of is bad bookkeeping but he's not a criminal. This is just a way for certain people in power to keep the uppity Mexican Democrat in his place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victor got a good attorney, I wish him the best of luck. It's not going to be easy though he has some powerful people that want him out of his post. They couldn't do it by election so this is the next best way I guess. We will see what happens, at this point it's a power struggle and hopefully justice is fair and sorts it all out in a proper manner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kylejack Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Gee, if $130K in base salary a year is dirt poor, I must be languishing in utter extreme distressed poverty. But what you said is that he's not a criminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trevino's been dirty a long time, at least as far back as when I was a reporter. Dolcefino could be abrasive but he was a pretty solid reporter. The pols hate him. I remember when he got nabbed for DUI I was interviewing some county officials up in Humble. They were overjoyed by the news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should've taken the misdemeanor deal that he was offered earlier. He had bad bookkeeping and it was a racially motivated case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
