WHY THIS PROFILE IS HERE

Role in the paper trail

Named in the October text and RMS sequence and the environmental-complaint routing. Police records are included within the narrowed case, call-count and fire-watch scope.

CHRONOLOGY

Key dates & context

  1. Source record

    Texts, dispatch and the criminal-trespass warning

    The displayed 8:47 a.m. text attributed to Carrie Mahon asks Buhman to call. The computer-aided dispatch record opens at 8:53:41 a.m.; the written criminal-trespass warning is timed 9:03 a.m. Later Beasley–Buhman texts discuss the warning and possible litigation.

    Context, limits & source references

    “He can bring it” appears after the CT in the supplied exchange, not as a prior instruction. Phone-screen clocks differ from message times; clocks have not been synchronized. No retaliation finding is made.

    • Selected text messages, computer-aided dispatch pages and criminal-trespass warning · October 22, 2025
  2. Timing comparison

    Police records-system access follows the displayed warning time

    Case-system screenshots show Odom-account access at 09:52 and entries from 10:03, followed by later activity. These are shown beside the same-day CT sequence.

    Context, limits & source references

    The case already existed, with September 19 creation and activity before October 22. Insert/delete labels do not reveal changed field values or motive. Minor-sensitive narratives and identities are excluded from this map.

  3. Source record

    EPA → TCEQ → City / MPPD routing

    EPA routes the complaint to TCEQ. Hodo emails James on October 27; James forwards the quoted chain that evening to Bryan Denney and Code Enforcement, copying Buhman. On October 28 James separately asks Hodo to send the video to the Chief because she cannot forward it.

    Context, limits & source references

    The correspondence establishes the forwarding route and the request to send a video. It does not independently establish a later direct Hodo-to-Chief delivery, that the Chief viewed the video, or an investigation outcome.

    • O008/O009 · EPA October 23; TCEQ/City October 27; follow-up October 28

Source notes

This profile is drawn from the case study’s reviewed chronology and correspondence index, through September 21, 2026. Roles identify the capacity described by the linked material; the date range is not a verified employment term.

Source statements, transcript excerpts, reported concerns, historical comparisons and timing analysis retain their separate labels. An invitation does not prove attendance. A copied recipient does not establish agreement or action. A call-number match does not establish call content.
