HOUSTON – Houston police thought that a war hero had volunteered to help officers handle troubled vets suffering from post-traumatic stress, but now sources say the FBI is investigating whether the man ever went to war.
KHOU 11 News first met Paul Schroeder in February of last year when we featured him in a story about post-traumatic stress disorder.
Schroeder is a full-time employee of the PTSD Foundation of America. It’s a group that provides counseling for veterans who are having a hard time after returning home from war.
HPD sources tell us Schroeder was so knowledgeable and was such a great speaker, the department decided to let him offer some training to officers at the HPD Academy. The classes were designed to help officers deal with returning veterans who are having issues.
HPD confirms that Schroeder taught six classes at the academy since September.

texassoldiersforthetruth Schroeder is a disgusting, repulsive excuse for a human being that is now trying to fade into the woodwork and use his non-existent PTSD and alcoholism to turn himself into a victim and reap sympathy from those he has screwed over for 10 years! He scammed people, used financial donations intended for true military heroes to fuel his charade, played upon the sorrows of Families of the Fallen, acted as a consummate BS artist and now wants the good citizens of Houston to believe he just up and resigned. No buddy you got caught red-handed by the police and FBI, continued to lie, had your bosses lie for you and claimed you were still actively working on classified missions with the SOF community. You got caught buddy and lied past the point of no return. And what about your fake counseling credentials, fake college degrees and your claims of a PHD in counseling and sex addiction therapy as well as your very own ministry? Shame on Paul Schroeder and David Maulsby, a church pastor, for hiding behind religion, claiming to be men of Faith yet doing nothing but lying to serve their own selfish needs. This PTSD Foundation seems to be a sham and needs to be shut down ASAP. Hope some other charity can help our veterans cause they deserve it. As for Schroeder and Maulsby, public humiliation and total disclosure is required. Everyone call the PTSD Foundation number and express your thoughts - 713-248-6205.
ReplyDeleteI have to say that after working with veterans for 30 years now, I've read a lot of stories that stunned me. This has to be one of them. Most people get into this work out of love and forget all about money.
ReplyDeleteI belong to Point Man Ministries now. I didn't serve but my husband did and that's how I got into working with veterans with PTSD. None of us make money and it is the last thing on our minds. Making sure veterans get the help they need is.
To read about someone like this,,,,,well, I have no words for how it makes me feel. Thanks for the comment.
