Simply put, the subpoenas seek, among others, confirmation that Danielle Weston and Mary Bone unlawfully assisted Jeremy Story and Vanessa Ruiz using both district resources and information they were only privy to by virtue of their positions as elected officials in order to advance their causes.

It is already public knowledge that Danielle Weston, in violation of Texas law and with reckless disregard for both her previous state and military training, destroyed or failed to retain text messages for the year 2021. In some since-retrieved messages, she repeatedly conducted district business, solicited advice from TEA officials, and conspired with Jeffrey Cottrill, the former director of governance and accountability at TEA. When confronted with an official grievance and proof beyond a reasonable doubt that she had deliberately refused to turn over government records, Weston admitted on the record that she knowingly and willingly broke Texas law regarding records retention (see below).

As such, should former Trustee Weston turn over any text messages from 2021, regardless of counterparty, this would mean that she lied on an official government record. As her confession was part of an official proceeding, her previous admission of destruction of government records would then be proven to be a lie, at which point she could face charges of destruction of or impairment of access to government records with intent to deceive the both the custodian of records and the requestor. Per Texas Penal Code 37.10, Weston could then face second-degree felony charges for her self-admitted actions.

She would also have further broken state law regarding records retention and should face prosecution for any applicable violations, up to and including perjury and destruction of government records during the commission of a crime, both of which constitute official misconduct and would have immense consequences on her professional and political careers going forward.

It should be noted that the current owners of this site, who are not affiliated with the now-apparently-defunct Round Rock One Family PAC, will gladly turn over or publicize any and all materials in their possession relating to this matter, Jeremy Story, Danielle Weston, Mary Bone, or Vanessa Ruiz in an effort to see justice done, up to and including items from PIA requests to law enforcement agencies, educational institutions, and regulatory entities.

The subpoenas are below. Per Texas Government Code – and out of courtesy that they and their friends don’t extend to others – their home addresses have been redacted.

Furthermore, it appears that Vanessa Ruiz lied to TEA investigators about providing said letter to superintendent of Wayside Charter Schools.

On October 28, 2022, Ruiz said the following to TEA SIU Director Adam Benthall:

However, five days later, on November 2, Superintendent Abbott directly contradicted Ruiz’s claims in an interview with SIU Director Benthall.

This doesn’t begin to scratch the surface of what’s in those investigators’ notes and call records, and from what we’re seeing, it’s entirely plausible – if not a certainty – that Jeremy Story and Jennifer White, the leaders of Round Rock One Family, conspired with Vanessa Ruiz to use an easily-provable forgery to help the candidates they endorsed in their campaigns.

And, of course, they specifically chose Orlando Salinas to amplify their fraud – the candidate opposing Trustee Landrum (Feller).
