What follows is the correspondence between Justice Brian Walker and Rob Hurlburt and then Rebecca Forest of Women On The Wall. The first message included a cc to Dave Welch, Founder and President of the US Pastor Council, and Walker's Pastor.

(8/12/24) Justice Walker -
My name is Rob Hurlburt and I am a close friend of John and Nubia Devine and their family. I work in several fields in both business and ministry, but for the past year have focused on several pro-life activism projects. I am licensed (North Richland Hills Baptist Church - now Cross Church FW) and ordained (Riverbend) Southern Baptist, but I am a member of Hill Country Bible Church and attend the Steiner Ranch campus in Austin. I am very active in the Men’s Ministry.
I read on your bio that you list first your commitment to Christ. I read that you have preached at your church, and even received a degree from Dallas Theological Seminary — an outstanding Seminary!
I entreat you to watch two excerpts (here, and here) from an upcoming short documentary I am producing called “Elizabeth’s Story.” It tells the story of John and Nubia‘s seventh child, Elizabeth, who was diagnosed with Trisomy 13, a horrific chromosomal birth defect. The story focuses on the decisions John and Nubia made, including Nubia‘s decision to carry Elizabeth to term, despite a very real risk to her life. Nubia is the main focus of the story and she is the centerpiece of a much larger project called Extremists For Life. She is one of the Godliest persons I’ve ever met, and we’ve been friends for over 20 years.
Unfortunately, your hit-piece attack video (“Devine Injustice” with Dolcefino and Hartmann) suggests Nubia is, in fact, a criminal who stole furs and jewelry from Elvie Kingston. Nubia is Elvie’s court-appointed guardian, as you know, and she was “awarded possession” of those items to provide safe-keeping of them, which she has done. Several friends of Elvie have produced the website TheTruthAboutElvie.org to refute your claims.
I was brought on the Devine campaign to help with the general election as we are pivoting toward the Democrats with their barrage of attacks on John for his Pro-Life positions. However, I am having a difficult time making this pivot because a significant number of Republicans still believe your video. I was devastated to hear reports from the RPT convention that some of the women were calling Nubia a “gold-digger” because of it.
I believe you owe the Devines and the Republican Party of Texas a public apology. You have caused significant damage to their reputation and to this campaign and to our effort to keep the insidious Democrats from gaining a foothold in our Texas state government.
Respectfully,
Rob

(8-12-24) Mr. Hurlburt,
It is obvious that you haven't read the Harris County court file in the Elvie Kingston guardianship matter. Since you have taken such a keen interest in this, I highly recommend that you do. That is all I have to say about the matter. Please do not contact me again or contact anyone else close to me. Cc'ing others was inappropriate and unnecessary.
Take Care,
Judge Walker
