Frazier was an active member of the Dallas Police Department until submitting his resignation in December 2023,[3] the timing of which seems likely prompted by the criminal proceedings around an incident in 2022 involving tampering with the campaign signage of Frazier's primary opponent, Paul Chabot,[4] and for which Frazier received the aforementioned charges of impersonating a public servant.
Frazier was defeated by Keresa Richardson by 68% to 32% on May 28, 2024, in the Republican primary runoff for the Texas House of Representatives for the 61st District.[5]
