March 17th (2025) marks seven years since a suburban Dallas man was arrested in Brazos County for DWI with a child in the vehicle. In January 2019, the man was placed on five years probation. In October 2023, the man was charged with violating probation. On Wednesday (February 12), after seven delays, the driver and the district attorney’s office enter a plea agreement to the probation violation. That resulted in the driver being sentenced to eight months in a state jail. The original punishment facing Dennis Darnell Jr. in January 2019 was two years. Most of the more than five pages in the motion to revoke probation was a list of skipping required tests to measure alcohol content or testing positive for alcohol between August 2019 and November 2021. The 25th time than a 58 year old Bryan man is in the Brazos County jail, follows a plea agreement with the district attorney’s office on six felony property crime charges. Court records show Rodney Steven Washington pleaded no contest and was convicted of making five illegal credit card charges where he was ordered to pay restitution of $4,431.41 dollars. Washington, who pleaded guilty to one felony theft, was ordered to pay restitution of $2,897.90. The thefts took place between September and November of 2022.
