Montgomery County authorities arrested former Precinct 3 Constable’s Office Deputy Louis Norman on May 29, 2026, ending a months-long investigation into alleged misuse of official information. Norman is now in custody at the Montgomery County Jail after being terminated from the office he once served.
The arrest gives county investigators a concrete outcome in a case that began with a complaint from a former girlfriend and moved through the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office Major Crimes Unit and the Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office Public Integrity Unit. In search terms, that is why Montgomery County is drawing attention now: a former deputy is facing a felony case tied to how law-enforcement information was handled.
Investigators say Norman allegedly accessed sensitive information through the National Crime Information Center and Texas Crime Information Center databases for personal, non-law-enforcement use. Misuse of official information is a third-degree felony in Texas, and the sheriff’s office said the matter remains an active investigation.
The Precinct 3 Constable’s Office turned the complaint over to county authorities under established protocols and said it fully cooperated throughout the inquiry. That cooperation matters because it places the complaint inside the agency’s chain of command, even as the allegations center on whether Norman used law-enforcement tools for reasons outside his job.
What has not been disclosed is the specific information investigators say Norman accessed or how it was used. With the case still open, the arrest answers one question and leaves another hanging: how much of the sensitive data trail can investigators document before the next court filing in Montgomery County.
