Kudos to The News for reporting about this and making it front page above the fold. Big props to food critic Leslie Brenner for being Petey's lifeline while he was in detention.

It's infuriating to think about how ridiculous, wasteful, spiteful, and illogical Operation Lone Star is. Petey Feng deserved better.

From the article it doesn't sound like any of his former employers attempted to help Petey.

Leslie Brenner should be on the top of the Texan of the Year list for 2026. https://www.dallasnews.com/opinion/texan-of-the-year/
