Repeat Offender Sentenced to 80 Years in Prison for Murdering a Concerned Father
A 27-year-old repeat offender was sentenced to 80 years in prison for gunning down a concerned father during an argument about speeding through Houston’s Third Ward, Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg announced Wednesday.
“We are absolutely plagued by gun violence,” Ogg said. “Far too often someone takes out a gun and takes a life without a second thought to the consequences, and this verdict shows that our community is fed-up with this indiscriminate violence.”
Joe Roy Cockerham III was sentenced Tuesday by a Harris County jury after being convicted of murder in a three-day trial for shooting Alfred James around noon on April 28, 2017.
Witnesses said the two men started arguing in the middle of the street about how fast Cockerham was driving through the neighborhood, which was full of kids. During the altercation, Cockerham took out a pistol and shot James. After he fell, Cockerham stood over him and shot him several more times in the head then fled in a gold Chevrolet Impala.
Cockerham had previously been convicted of indecency with a child, in 2016, which meant he faced a minimum punishment of 15 years in prison.
Assistant District Attorney Joshua Raygor who prosecuted the case with ADA Carlos Aguayo said during closing arguments that James’ teenage daughter will have to grow up without a father because of Cockerham’s actions.
“That’s a hole that will never be filled,” Raygor said. “This was an execution-style killing. Eleven shots were fired. There were five shots to the back of the head after he was already down.”
The Houston Police Department investigated the case.

Bravo’s Top Chef Selects Houston for Season 19 Houston’s Status As A Global Culinary Destination Cemented By The Emmy
With a focus on celebrating culture and diversity, the Emmy and James Beard Award-winning culinary competition Top Chef selects Houston (ranked the nation’s most diverse city) for its series’ 19th season. The series, produced by Magical Elves, will premiere on Bravo in 2022. A new batch of talented chefs will be challenged all over the city, and host Padma Lakshmi, head judge Tom Colicchio, and judge Gail Simmons will all be back to crown the next Top Chef.
Hosting Top Chef is a prime example of Houston’s continuing growth into a global culinary destination. Charged by the blend of nationalities that call the city home (one in four Houstonians is an immigrant), the city has become a mecca for discerning and adventurous eaters – a truly international metropolis where travelers can taste more than 140 different types of food and become immersed in cultural traditions from around the world. From culturally specific festivals and bold culinary fusions to heritage- rich neighborhoods, like Freedmen’s Town (Houston’s oldest Black neighborhood, known for its barbecue) and Asiatown (home to a dizzying array of Asian restaurants, including some that blend Vietnamese and Cajun influences), visitors will discover international authenticity in Houston’s multicultural metropolis. Top Chef and Houston are no strangers; Season 18 Finalist, Chef Dawn Burrell, honed her skills in Houston, representing the wealth of innovative F&B talent that can be found throughout the city.
“I cannot think of a more perfect pairing than Top Chef and the City of Houston. Both represent a celebration of cuisine, culture and innovation,” said Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner. “We are proud of the diverse community and unique heritage that makes our city such a hot culinary destination — from classics like Tex-Mex and barbecue to local inventions like Viet-Cajun and Japanese Tapas. As any Top Chef contestant will tell you, the best food is born out of passion, and Houstonians exemplify this idea with every dish we create.”
The news was confirmed on BravoTV.com: “Top Chef Season 19 is in production in Houston, the fourth largest city in the U.S. The racial and ethnic diversity of Houston’s population is represented in the city’s vibrant culinary scene, making it a perfect backdrop to inspire our next wave of cheftestants. We hope to showcase the rich heritage of Houstonians through the food that defines them.”

While the COVID-19 pandemic brought unprecedented challenges to the food and beverage industry nationwide throughout 2020 and into 2021, Houston’s resilient hospitality scene is positioned to emerge stronger than ever thanks to local culinary leaders supporting the industry by creating new charitable organizations and innovative restaurant solutions. Houston’s craft beer world has not slowed down, with 10 new breweries debuting since 2020, and Downtown Houston has experienced a marked uptick in restaurant and bar openings and announcements, with further projects set to debut later in the year and beyond.
In addition to being a city with incredible food, Houston is known for its great street art. Bringing those two strands together, local artist David Maldonado has created a spectacular mural interpretation of the Top Chef logo, attached.

1 HPD officer killed, another injured in northeast Harris County while serving warrant
One officer is dead and another is injured after a shooting in northeast Harris County.
The incident happened around 7:30 a.m. at the Timber Ridge Apartments on Aeropark Drive near Crosswinds Drive, authorities said.
Houston Police Chief Troy Finner said William “Bill” Jeffrey and Sgt. Michael Vance with the HPD Major Offenders Unit were serving a high-level felony arrest warrant at the location.
When they arrived, Finner said a woman believed to be in some sort of relationship with the suspect answered the door. At that point, Finner said the suspect immediately came out and opened fire on the officers.
Both Vance and Jeffrey were transported to Memorial Herman, one via Life Light and the other by ambulance. According to Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner, Jeffrey was killed in the shooting. Vance is in surgery and expected to recover, Turner said.
“Police officers never know what they’re going to face when they leave their homes,” Turner said. “During the course of their duty, (their work) is inherently dangerous … Pray for the Jeffrey family, and then pray for the full recovery for Sgt. Vance.”
The suspect who opened fire at the officers was also killed in the shooting. According to the suspect’s family members, the suspect was 31-year-old Deon Ledet.
Finner said the woman and a small child were in the apartment at the time of the shooting.
Witnesses described hearing gunfire minutes before 7:30 a.m. Monday. Many were parents taking their children to school.
Lynn Turner, who lives in a unit near the unit at which Ledet lived, said she was getting ready to leave for work this morning when she saw a woman, carrying a child, run.
“She was running with the baby this way and as soon as she started running with the baby that’s when they started shooting,” Turner said.
Turner was outside with her dog. She said after she saw the woman, all she could do was a duck.
“It was nothing but smoke,” Turner said. “You could hear shots and there was nothing but smoke and we had to stay down cause everything smoked,” Turner continued.
When the smoke cleared. Two men were down: Senior Police Officer William “Bill” Jeffery and Deon Ledet, the suspect.
Turner said the shooting occurred as parents brought their children to school.
“It was overwhelming and it was too much. It was a lot of kids out here,” Turner said.
Monica Scott said she was leaving to drive her child to school when she saw the officers arrive to serve a warrant for Ledet’s arrest.
“As I was leaving out, taking my son, I saw an officer outside. One was outside at their back door,” Scott said.
Scott didn’t witness the gunfire exchange which occurred after she saw officers approach the apartment. She expressed sorrow for Senior Police Officer Jeffery, Sgt. Vance, and Ledet.
“It’s just a sad situation. We just never know what people are going through and I just pray for all the families cause we never know, man, you just never know,” Scott said.
Lynn Tuner had similar thoughts. Grief swept her face as she recounted dodging bullets.
“It’s just sad. We just have to pray for the officers, and pray for their families and pray for the deceased’s family,” Turner said.
