Plano Police Department actively hindered efforts to investigate a man that followed me into my former apartment complex and refused to leave, forcing her to pursue the case on her own until it reached court.

Harvy Barsoom pleaded guilty to trespassing in Collin County Court. He received a sentence of two years’ probation, and the resident was granted a lifetime protective order against him.
Plano Police Chief Ed Drain and Officer Ken Mings showed no intention of locating Barsoom or bringing him in for questioning. I had to fight to get the case into a courtroom. I have compiled audio recordings, body-camera footage, internal emails, and other materials that she says document the department’s alleged failures and efforts to block further scrutiny of the matter. I detailed those claims in a recent video report.
