Dowell was one of three undercover APD officers within Occupy Austin, the same group that ended up in the Port of Houston.

Gladden said the officers designed and built those "dragon sleeves" that got the protesters in so much trouble.

"Dowell was bragging to the wrong people about setting these kids and they tipped us off," Gladden said.
