little frau Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Surprised no one has posted here. I considered it yesterday but thought I'd wait. Personally, I like Ron. He's my go to guy at noon when 13 does not satisfy earlier. Often, I'm not awake before 7 for the local shows. I'm actually too lazy to look up the stats to see how many beers, drinks or whatever it takes to blow a breath test but if I remember from younger days, it's not too many. I always had a personal limit of two beers if I was driving. I use past tense because I now always have a designated driver. He may have committed some infraction, rolling through a stop sign, or yellow light, we don't know but whatever, he was stopped by law enforcement. Until anything else comes to light, I'll continue to watch and consider him human. I am glad that nothing involving bodily injury resulted from his arrest. I'm also glad the station is offering support, whatever that involves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryDierker Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 What has happened to Ron since the incident? Is he still working for the station? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Dogs Posted March 17, 2014 Author Share Posted March 17, 2014 Dierker, I believe KHOU is going to support Trevino in his situation with court of law, Sherry Williams was doing the weekday morning newscast with Lily Jang in his absence.

trymahjong Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 wasn't he on the early morning news this morning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Dogs Posted March 17, 2014 Author Share Posted March 17, 2014 I meant to say Sherry filled in for him last week.Yeah, Ron was on the news today and apologized.Reminds me of what Michelle Valles did while she was at KXAN-TV NBC 36 Austin back in 2007, when she was arrested for DWI and a mug shot of her was posted online. She apologized during the 5pm newscast I think, and later started crying on the air . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
