Batson hired him on the spot.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Batson said he terminated Roberson shortly after he got a call from a veterans organization, who had reason to believe Roberson was not a Marine at all. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We started to look into it and we discovered the years he said he was in the Marine Corps., he was actually in prison for sexual assault and he is a registered sex offender,\u201d said Batson. <\/p>\n<p>At that point, Batson said he formed a group to confront Roberson. It included his friend and fellow veteran, Joseph Rousell.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Pretty infuriating knowing that other people more deserving of help weren&#8217;t getting that help, and he was getting it under false pretense,&#8221; Rousell said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Well, now Roberson is sitting in Brazos County Jail.  The article doesn&#8217;t say what the charges are, so we&#8217;ll just wait patiently.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>He was wanted in Brazos County for lying to police, and in Galveston for petty theft and theft of a firearm. He is also registered as a sex offender for attempting to assault a minor. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"476\" height=\"267\" src=\"http:\/\/abc13.com\/video\/embed\/?pid=1803297\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chip sends us a link to the story of David Roberson who told an employer and &hellip; <a title=\"David Roberson; phony Marine in a Texas hoosegow\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=70891\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">David Roberson; phony Marine in a Texas hoosegow<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":70893,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30,391],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-70891","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-phony-soldiers","category-valorvultures"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/70891","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=70891"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/70891\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/70893"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=70891"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=70891"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=70891"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
