HENDERSON — A Rusk County constable arrested on weapons and drug charges last week is still a candidate for re-election in the May primary. According to KETK, Precinct 2 Constable Benjamin Thomas Ferrell, who’s served in the office since 2004, was indicted earlier this month. Legally, Ferrell’s name will be left on the ballot because of the deadline to withdraw was March 12, and his arrest was days later.
