Ex-Florida Commissioner Trey Nick learned his private messages weren’t so private after the release of public records revealed disturbing texts from him to other officials.
Nick’s reported texts said “plenty of ni****s out this evening” followed by a picture from the classic film “Friday” of Ice Cube and Chris Tucker riding in a car. As if that wasn’t bad enough, Nick went on to call them “monkeys at the circus,” according to WMBB News 13.
The texts were sent back in 2022 to former Assistant County Attorney Heather Maxwell and the current commissioner, Tony Anderson. At the time, Nick was the acting commissioner of District 4 in Florida’s Walton County. Earlier this year, Nick announced he would run for a second term as commissioner of District 1, according to the county’s website.
NAACP Chapter President Frank Guillory called the messages — which were part of a public records request by citizens — “disturbing.”
