Kim Ogg, an outspoken lesbian, and members of her administration, harbored deeply embedded hatred of Dr. Hotze because he has used his finances and influence for decades to advance Christian Biblical values in civil government, and to support candidates who adhere to conservative, traditional, Christian family values. Ogg also resents Dr. Hotze because he is pro-life and opposes the homosexual and transgender movements, believing that male and female are the only two genders created by God.

I met Dr. Steven Hotze face-to-face during the November 3, 2015, City of Houston General Election. The Houston Equal Rights Ordinance (HERO) was on the ballot as Proposition 1, which would allow “BIOLOGICAL MEN” to use the same restrooms, locker rooms, and showers as “BIOLOGICAL WOMEN” inside Houston’s City limits. Dr. Hotze led the opposition to this ordinance.

Ultimately, Proposition 1, the Bathroom Ordinance, was soundly defeated 61% to 39%, as African American women sided with Dr. Steven Hotze and local pastors who opposed the disastrous ordinance.

Kim Ogg’s opposition to Dr. Hotze is related to his efforts to ensure election integrity in Harris County elections. Ogg abused her power as the Harris County District Attorney to unfairly target Dr. Hotze during the 2022 Midterm Elections.

What’s unfolding in Dr. Steven Hotze’s case inside the 177th Criminal District Court is unjust. The District Attorney’s Office has been playing a “DIABOLICAL POLITICAL GAME” with the life of this “GOP PATRIOT” by implementing some underhanded Democrat political agreement.

Kim Ogg and the District Attorney’s office colluded with the civil attorneys, Dicky Grigg and Scott Brazil, who represented the illegal immigrant, Lopez, in the million-dollar lawsuit against Dr. Hotze. This lawsuit was filed May 30, 2021. Ogg and the District Attorney’s office worked hand in hand with the Democrat civil attorneys to illegally collect information through depositions in order to bring an indictment against Dr. Hotze. The District Attorney’s office never informed Dr. Hotze that he was a target of criminal investigation. Emails, phone calls and texts were made between the civil attorneys and the District Attorney’s office in an effort to trap Dr. Hotze. This violated Dr. Hotze’s Fifth Amendment Civil Rights, and made the civil attorneys agents for the District Attorney’s office, which is in complete violation of the District Attorney’s criminal code of conduct.

The civil attorneys, Grigg and Brazil, are both lawyers who have represented the Texas and Harris County Democrat Parties. They took this case against Dr. Hotze on contingency. Was it really a coincidence that these Democrat Party attorneys ended up representing this illegal immigrant, David Lopez, in a million dollar lawsuit against Dr. Hotze?

It is well known in Harris County politics that Dr. Hotze has been working to expose the Democrat vote fraud scheme in Harris County, and that the Democrats want to stop his election integrity efforts and destroy his influence.

Prior to the 2024 General Election, Dr. Hotze’s IT investigator discovered that there were over 400,000 illegal names on the Harris County Voter Registration file of people who lived outside of Harris County or out of state. Of these names, 205,000 were shown to have illegally voted in the 2024 General Election.

On October 22, 2024, Dr. Hotze filed a lawsuit, Hotze v. Bennett, against former Harris County Tax Assessor Collector, Ann Bennett, who served as the voter registrar, requiring her to eliminate these illegal names. The Texas Election Code requires the Tax Assessor Collector in every county to update the list and remove any illegal names on a monthly basis. Since the Democrats took over the Harris Tax Assessor Collector office in 2016, they have not updated the voter registration file. This is one of the ways that the Democrats have been able to steal elections and turn Harris County into a blue county, by casting illegal votes.

Kim Ogg benefited from vote fraud by illegally hiring vote harvesters in her campaigns. When Dr. Hotze’s election integrity team brought incidents of vote fraud in Harris County to Kim Ogg, her office refused to investigate them. Ogg also refused to have Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton investigate vote fraud in Harris County.

The District Attorney’s office has intentionally been dragging out Dr. Hotze’s criminal case for over three years, since April 20, 2022, in order to harass him in the same way Trump has been harassed. Kim Ogg has used, in succession, five different associate district attorneys on Dr. Hotze’s criminal case. The fifth associate district attorney, Wayne Diepraam, was hired by contract by Kim Ogg. Slow rolling this case, Diepraam missed five consecutive court hearings, all of which had to be rescheduled, costing Dr. Hotze more time and more money.

While the District Attorney’s office was compelled at numerous hearings in Dr. Hotze’s criminal case by the previous judge, Robert Johnson, in the 177th Criminal District Court, to provide all the documents of their correspondence with the civil attorneys, and other exculpatory evidence, the District Attorney’s office has failed to do so.

On August 19, 2024, two years and four months after Dr. Hotze’s initial indictment, Kim Ogg had him indicted for two additional crimes, Organized Criminal Activity and Aggravated Robbery with a Deadly Weapon.

Dr. Hotze filed a U.S.C. Section 1983 lawsuit against Kim Ogg on December 31, 2024 for Official Oppression. The following day, January 1, 2025, the contract associate district attorney, Wayne Diepraam, added a charge of Hate Crime to Dr. Hotze’s indictments.

This is why Dr. Hotze has filed his Official Oppression lawsuit against Kim Ogg, as well as a motion for dismissal of his case, based upon prosecutorial misconduct and discovery abuse. This motion for dismissal is based upon the action of the former Harris County District Attorney, Kim Ogg, and not the current district attorney’s office.

Recently, Kim Ogg has requested that the FBI investigate the current Harris County District Attorney, Sean Teare, who defeated her in the 2024 Democratic Primary, for corruption. Many political winds are swirling in this case against Dr. Hotze.

You can read Dr. Hotze’s “MOTION TO DISMISS” for prosecutorial misconduct and discovery abuse, which was filed on March 20, 2025, in the 177th Criminal District Court, that is now presided over by Judge Emily Muñoz Detoto.

Our courtrooms should not be a place to wage “LAWFARE” on political rivals or grind political axes. Kim Ogg’s Administration was as wrong as two left shoes for what they have done to Dr. Steven Hotze. One of the reasons they were able to get away with bringing the “BOGUS CHARGES” against Dr. Hotze said that he’s been fighting “DINOs,” Democrats in Name Only, and “RINOs,” Republicans in Name Only, who appear to have teamed up against him.

Dr. Steven Hotze has fought against corruption in politics for decades. He has opposed Kim Ogg and other “ROGUE POLITICIANS,” boldly and courageously standing firm for conservative values in government.

Judge Emily Muñoz Detoto, a Republican, unseated Judge Robert Johnson, a Democrat, in the race for the 177th Criminal District Court in the November 5, 2024, General Election. Detoto received 729,131 votes for 50.13%, and Johnson received 725,463 votes for 49.87%. Judge Detoto is now presiding over Dr. Hotze’s case.

While I haven’t visited the 177th Criminal District Court since Judge Detoto has begun serving her term, she has impressed everyone with her unbiased approach, fairness, compassionate but tough judicial temperament, and her command of the courtroom.

Outstanding attorney, Jared Woodfill, J.D., former Chairman of the Harris County Republican Party, is the lead defense attorney in both Dr. Hotze’s criminal and civil cases. He is capably being assisted by Attorney Oliver Brown, J.D.

The goal of Kim Ogg’s lawfare was to intimidate Dr. Hotze and bleed him financially. Those who know Dr. Hotze know that he is a Christian warrior who never backs down. He has taken the offensive by filing an Official Oppression lawsuit against Kim Ogg. Justice will be served when the outrageous criminal charges against Dr. Hotze are dismissed and when Kim Ogg is found guilty of Prosecutorial Misconduct and Official Oppression.
