This is the address for the latest cockfighting pit that SHARK is exposing. This pit, which we were observing on Sunday, March 12,2023 while a cockfight was ongoing, is owned and operated by Christopher Stimits. A man that local law enforcement has labeled a "career criminal."
To reach this Pit from the Jasper County Sheriff's sub-station in Buna, TX, proceed south on Highway 96 1.4 miles to Highway 96S (Business) and turn left. Continue 4.8 miles and turn right onto Highway 804 and continue to the end of the street to arrive at the cockfighting pit.

Another cockfight, another case of police inaction.
It's hard to say why the Jasper County Sheriff's Office took no action against criminals at the property of Chris Stimits at an illegal cockfight outside of Buna, Texas last Sunday. SHARK called the sheriff on Sunday morning while a SHARK drone hovered over the cockfight property. The cockfight went on for hours, but a Jasper County sheriff's deputy claimed he couldn't go past a locked gate because he couldn't hear or see anything. Nevermind that the property owner, Christopher Stimits, has a long criminal history that includes Aggravated Assault, Motion to Revoke Parole for Assault, Arson, Failure to Appear – Bond Forfeiture/Protective Order, Unlawful Possession of a Firearm by a Felon, and Motion to Revoke Parole – Unlawful restraint. Law enforcement officers have described Stimits as a "career criminal," and yet, the Jasper County sheriff took no action. In fact, our information indicates that the illegal cockfight pit has been known to the sheriff for a long time.
The Stimits pit is the first Texas cockfight SHARK has exposed, but it most certainly will not be the last. Meanwhile, the Stimits pit is supposed to run every couple weeks. If the Jasper County Sheriff's Office wants to retain anything resembling a reputation, that pit had better never run again - ever. We will keep you informed as to what happens. Please help keep our investigators on the road, ferreting out criminal animal abuse, and when it is required, the exposing of corrupt law enforcement protecting the animal abusers.
