Liberty County man charged in shooting death of his son

Posted on by

A Liberty County man has been accused in the shooting death of his 26-year-old son during an argument Thursday afternoon at their home.

James Nesler, 61, is charged with murder in the death of J.A. Nesler about 3:45 p.m. at CR450, according to the Liberty County Sheriff's Office.

Deputies said the elder Nesler told investigators his son had an argument with a friend who was visiting the home. After the brief disagreement, Nesler said he also had an argument with his son. His son started toward him and Nesler said he opened fire on the younger man with a .357 revolver to "warn" him, attempting to wound him in the shoulder to stop the confrontation.

However, deputies said, the younger Nesler was shot in the chest and died at the scene.

James Nesler is being held in the Liberty County jail. So far, no bond has been set for him.

Liberty handles Jefferson

Posted on by

LIBERTY- In the first three possessions of the game, the Liberty Leopards set the standard for the rest of the night in their contest against the Jefferson Falcons.

In the first minute and a half, Liberty converted all three times up the floor, foreshadowing what the end result would be. They never lost the lead the entire game. When the final horn sounded, Liberty defeated Jefferson, 58-36.

Liberty took control early, winning the tip and rolling from there. They outscored the Falcons 24-14 in the first half. Marcy Dykes led the team in scoring, knocking down six field goals and two free throws for 14 points. Leah Leshnack hit six baskets for 13 points. They are what sparked the fourth-quarter takeover. Liberty outscored Jefferson 15-9, earning most of their points from the Falcon turnovers.

Ron DeJulio, Liberty's coach, knows who his go-to players are and had his team set them up to be successful.

"Leah is probably our best player," DeJulio said. "She's our highest scoring player. She did a great job of giving it up to Marcy. They were taking her (Leshnack) away quite a bit. Her shot wasn't falling but she did a great job of giving assists. Marcy is a very athletic post. It's a mismatch for anyone inside against her."

Defensively, the Leopards switched their zones sporadically from a 2-3 zone to what looked like a box-and-one in order to keep the Falcons on their toes.

"They were getting comfortable with what we were doing early on, then we changed it up" DeJulio said. "It just gets them out of rhythm a little bit. We talked about that at pregame and at halftime. We had to step it up defensively because they have some good shooters and good players inside. We really concentrated on defense during this week to win the game."

Liberty's strategy worked, causing eight turnovers in the fourth quarter, three of which turned into points for the Leopards. Jefferson coach Rod Holmes attributes the loss to too many missed shots.

"We didn't come out and score," Holmes said. "We couldn't put the ball in the basket. That first quarter, we went 3 of 17 from the field. If we don't hit those shots, they stay in their defense."

Left-handed guard, Jessica Becker, stepped up in the second half, earning 8 of her 14 points. Emily Smock backed her up sinking five shots and a free throw for 11 points for the Falcons.

Libertarian wing of GOP gains strength in Congress

Posted on by

Rep. Raul Labrador, R-Idaho, shown here Sept. 4, is a key member of the House Liberty Caucus. (AP...

A few times each month, a couple dozen House Republican lawmakers gather in a meeting room in a building adjacent to Capitol to discuss ideas and legislative proposals that focus on limited government, reducing the debt and maintaining individual rights.

The group considers itself conservative with a libertarian emphasis. They call themselves the Liberty Caucus and believe that in order for the GOP to win more elections in the future, the party must begin embracing their libertarian-minded philosophy because voters are beginning to demand it, particularly in the wake of government data collection revelations that some believe infringe on privacy rights.

"I think you are seeing a movement in the Republican Party where it is becoming more liberty minded," Rep. Raul Labrador, R-Idaho, a member of the Liberty Caucus, told the Washington Examiner.

"Issues like [government data collection by the National Security Administration] have really enlightened Republicans to the dangers of the lack of strong congressional oversight of these organizations, so I think we need to get back to the basic doctrine of the constitution. Our Founding Fathers had a fear of strong central government and too much power being given to one person. That is the premise of what the constitution was about."

Labrador said younger Republicans especially are beginning to embrace this libertarian-minded view point.

"We are the future of the Republican Party," Labrador, who was elected to Congress in 2010, said of the Liberty Caucus.

The philosophy of the caucus dovetails with the GOP's conservative wing on some issues, such as debt reduction, reining in government spending and opposition to the new health care law. But it differs on others, in particular on national security. While many Liberty Caucus members are opposed to the government surveillance program that has permitted officials to gather huge amounts of private phone and internet data in an effort to thwart terrorism, most mainstream GOP lawmakers have shown far less opposition and have defended it as necessary for preserving national security.

Despite some philosophical similarities, neither mainstream Republicans nor their leadership are embracing the Liberty Caucus and in many cases are standing in the way of their ideas, refusing to take up their legislation and stripping members of important committee assignments for bucking the leadership on key votes.

It's a clash that threatens to further divide the GOP, which has already been fractured by the Tea Party movement. Many of the Liberty Caucus members also consider themselves Tea Party members.
