Summary
The court accepted a $400 donation for the sheriff's K-9 program from David M. Thomas and approved a $14,323 agreement with Magnet Forensics for a phone-dumping/digital forensics tool (includes training); officials said the purchase was budgeted.
The Commissioners Court accepted a $400 donation from David M. Thomas to support the Harrison County Sheriff's Office K-9 program and approved an agreement (Quote Q35077 N1) with Magnet Forensics for digital forensics tools and access.
Sheriff's Office presenters said the Magnet Forensics tool replaces a previous system that was not working and that the purchase was budgeted. "This is exactly what we need and this was specifically budgeted for," an office representative said, noting the contract includes two training vouchers. Commissioners approved both items by unanimous vote.
The court also approved the annual interlocal cooperation agreement with Texas State University to conduct controlled tobacco compliance buys at retail outlets, a contract the sheriff's office described as the same standard form used previously.
