Judge applicant arrested as she files for 418th

"Minutes after filing her application to run against incumbent Tracy Gilbert for 418th state District Court judge, Jessica Siegel found herself in the custody of the Texas Rangers – arrested for allegedly tampering with governmental records.

The arrest took place around 4:30 p.m. at the Montgomery County Republican Headquarters in downtown Conroe as the deadline for candidacy filing drew to its official close. While Siegel’s application was submitted on time, officials with the MCRP later chose to reject it, leaving Gilbert’s 418th position uncontested."

"Stranger, she added, was that this was the second arrest she had witnessed that day of someone involved with Gilbert through legal proceedings or politics."

"Dr. Walter Wilkerson, chairman of the MCRP, said Siegel’s application appeared to meet all the necessary requirements for her to run against Gilbert; and even after her arrest, he said she would still be in the running.""
