Jacksonville, TX:
"He admitted to sexually assaulting a child, then threatening to kill her if she said anything. Jacksonville police arrested 50-year-old Richard Dishman, after the young girl told family members of the alleged attack. Police say Dishman admitted to the crime and could be sentenced to anywhere from 25 years, to life in prison. "(He admitted to sexually assaulting a child -KLTV March 20, 2009)
After admitting to raping a 14-year old girl and threatening to kill her if she told, then 53-year old Richard Glenn Dishman sat in the Cherokee County jail and on the criminal docket for over 2 years. (Source: KLTV March 20, 2009) Dishman was indicted by Cherokee County jury for Aggravated Sexual Assault of a Child in July 2009. His child sex assault charge was eventually dismissed after "cooperating" with the Cherokee County District Attorney's office. He was sentenced time served (450 days in the Rusk, TX jail) for INJURY TO A MINOR after the underage victim's forensic RAPE EXAM, and after being Indicted for Aggravated Sexual Assault of a Minor. He was more valuable sitting in the Cherokee County jail, and he was rewarded by the Cherokee County DA.

Dishman has a long history in-and-out of Cherokee County jail and making sweet deals with prosecutors to remain on the Snitch Roster. Jacksonville PD arrested him again in 2018 for burglary and carrying a gun. As long as he stays in Cherokee County, Dishman has the blessing of District Judges to continue his services unincarcerated. It only makes sense when taxpayers understand how paid drug informants are treated by law enforcement. They make loyal State witnesses and reliable jury members.

In fact, Richard Glenn Dishman was arrested again in 2018 for burglary of a building. He was 60 years old at the time. (Source: Jacksonville Progress, Aug 25, 2018) His most recent criminal case has also been buried by the Cherokee County District Courts.
Why would aggravated rape against a minor charges be dropped after a confession, the 14-year old victim's statements at the hospital; and after a DNA test? Because the Cherokee County District Attorney's office wants the world to know that The Law does not apply to them. They can pick and choose whatever they want to do, to whomever, whenever they feel. Local judges, law enforcement, and attorneys are intimidated, plus it gives them a hard on witnessing the Constitution get butchered. Dropping charges on a would-be murderer puts them in Hero Status with the child molesters in their own clique.
Cherokee County's longest serving government employee is a child molester.
Cherokee County Probation Director Carl Phillips supervised probated sex offenders for 35 years, and after his retirement party, was caught repeatedly molesting a child. (Former East Texas corrections director molested child for more than 18 months- KETK)
Man admits to weekend rape of child - Jacksonville Progress March 18, 2009
The Jacksonville Police Department arrested a local man Tuesday who confessed to sexually assaulting a child under the age of 14 last weekend.
Richard Glenn Dishman, 50, has been charged with one count of aggravated sexual assault of a child. Due to what authorities are calling “aggravating” conditions, Dishman faces a minimum of 25 years in prison for the crime.
Detective Travis Cearley said the crime occurred on the morning of Saturday, March 14, and was reported the following day to Trinity Mother Frances-Jacksonville.
“The child was being supervised by her adult brother, and they went together to the house of one of the brother’s friends for the weekend. That friend lives with his uncle, Richard Dishman,” Cearley said. “On Saturday morning, the little girl left the house and entered a detached garage to get some ice cream for herself and her older brother. Mr. Dishman followed her into the garage and sexually assaulted her there.”
According to the victim, during the commission of the crime, Dishman threatened that he would kill her if she told anyone about what happened.
After leaving Dishman’s home, the victim notified a family member of the attack and was taken to the hospital for medical treatment. A forensic medical examination was conducted at the hospital.
“The child was able to provide good details about the scene of the crime and the events that took place. During an interview with the suspect, he not only corroborated the details of the offense, but he also confessed to the crime. He has since been arrested and charged,” Cearley said. “Aggravated sexual assault of a child is a first-degree felony. Due to the fact that she was placed in fear of serious bodily injury or death during the commission of the crime, that aggravates the offense even further so that it carries a term of between 25 and 99 years or life in prison.”
Dishman confessed to the crime on Tuesday, and that evening he was transported to the hospital where a DNA search warrant was executed and his DNA was collected. That sample will be compared to biological evidence recovered by JPD during the investigation.
According to Cearley, Dishman has an “extensive” criminal history with the department — dating back 20 years or more — mostly for property crimes and narcotics charges. This is the first time Dishman has been charged for a crime with a sexual component.
“I’m glad to have this case resolved quickly and to have him where he belongs. As long as he is in jail, he doesn’t have the opportunity to victimize this child again or any other children; just the fact that he is in custody makes me happy,” he said.
Bond for Dishman’s release was set at $750,000. (Source: Jacksonville Progress)
