Los Fresnos Police Chief provided private security for a gambling arcade

LOS FRESNOS – The FBI is looking into a relationship between the Los Fresnos police chief and an 8-liner owner.

Police Chief James Harris says he had a private security business for awhile in 2005. It was contracted by the Gold Mine, which is now shut down for illegal gambling.

The chief says he hired off-duty police officers to provide security at the Gold Mine. Then, he says, he found out what was going on there.

Chief Harris says it was an oversight. He denies his officers ever provided protection from law enforcement to the Gold Mine operators. "I understand it might look like that, but I can assure you no information from the Los Fresnos Police Department or anything has ever been relayed to any of these 8 liners and it never would be."

Harris says he got out of the security business, but not before his off-duty work caught the attention of the Cameron County District Attorney.

District Attorney Armando Villalobos tells us, “We had heard from numerous sources that the owners of this arcade were connected with law enforcement. We want to make sure that wasn't true and if it was true, what those connections are and what kind of relationship it was."

Villalobos says he’s asked the FBI to investigate the relationship between the chief and the operators of the Gold Mine to see if there is any criminal wrongdoing.

Security firm with ties to police chief, casino under investigation

BY EMMA PEREZ-TREVIÑO
The Brownsville Herald

January 20, 2006 — A county anti-gambling task force is investigating a security company linked to both the Los Fresnos police chief and the operator of a casino that was raided recently.

Public records show that Los Fresnos Police Chief James Harris III owns Coastal Security & Protection in North Brownsville, but Goldmine arcade operator Eduardo Rene Peña claims he owns it as well.

Agents with the anti-gambling task force and the FBI raided Goldmine at 1005 S. Arroyo Blvd. in Los Fresnos on Jan. 6, and arrested Peña, 31, and his wife Veronica B. Peña, 27, both of Los Fresnos, on gambling and unlawful possession of a weapon charges.

Following their arrests, Cameron County District Attorney Armando Villalobos said the task force would attempt to seize the building housing the arcade. Records showed that former McAllen mayor Leo Montalvo of McAllen owns the property.

Villalobos said the task force would investigate two other businesses linked to Peña: the security company and a limousine service.

Villalobos said his office feels the businesses were the result of the gaming operations.

County public records reflect that Harris is the sole owner of the security firm. Harris registered the firm in March 2005.

But, ownership of Coastal Security at 1213 Alton Gloor Blvd. is in dispute.

Peña’s attorney, Michael Young, maintains that Peña owns the security business and had “no comment” when asked Thursday if his client was a silent partner.

Harris isn’t talking and on Wednesday said he fears his comments would be taken out of context, but he declined to forward a written statement.

“The security company is owned and operated by Eddie Peña and does have legitimate and viable contracts to provide security with several entities, both private and public governmental institutions,” Young said.

Terry Vinson of Los Fresnos and Harris are listed as owners/managers of the security firm with the Texas Department of Public Safety’s Private Security Board.

Peña’s name does not appear.

“There is only one owner (Harris) as far as the state record, and I’m not the owner. I’m the manager,” Vinson said via telephone from Beaumont where he was working security.

Vinson is a long-time law enforcement officer and has made the rounds in southern Cameron County as police chief and interim police chief in Palm Valley, Indian Lake and Los Fresnos. He also has been a candidate for county sheriff and county judge.

“Harris wants to get rid of it,” Vinson said of the security firm, claiming that Harris is transferring ownership to him. Vinson said the Alton Gloor office was closed this week and is operating the security business from his office in Los Fresnos.

“I never saw or dealt with Peña,” Vinson said, maintaining he has no knowledge that Peña could be a silent partner. “As far as the financing (for the security company), I don’t know anything about the financing.

“I’m trying to get things together and get things straight. There will be no partners in my business,” he said.

The security firm had provided outside security at the Goldmine for a few months, Vinson said.

“I don’t believe any of our guards had seen anything (illegal) out there, and I’m sure Harris would have said something,” he said. “I’m sure you can suspect it, but proving it is another story.”
