Phil was raised in southeast Houston attending school in the Pasadena Independent School District. Growing up, Phil was very active in Future Farmers of America raising livestock to show in the Pasadena Livestock Show and Rodeo. After graduating from Dobie High School in 1987, Phil attended San Jacinto College majoring in Criminal Justice. In 1990, he accepted a job with the Harris County Sheriff's Office as a civilian jailer. In 1991, Phil graduated from the Sheriff's Academy as a certified peace officer and was assigned to the Detention Bureau. 

He left the Sheriff's Office in 1992 and accepted a job with the Harris County Precinct 8 Constable's Office as a patrol deputy. Over the years, he rose through the ranks at Precinct 8, being promoted to Corporal, Sergeant, Lieutenant and Captain. In February 2005, Phil was appointed to the rank of Chief Deputy of Precinct 8 where he oversaw the day-to-day operations of the agency. On June 1, 2011, he was appointed Constable by Commissioner's Court before winning the 2012 election decidedly to keep the position. 

"I am proud to have served the citizens of this community for over 35 years, and I want to continue serving as Constable. Giving back to this community, keeping our families safe and protecting our streets are my top priorities. I have always striven to build a strong relationship with both the citizens of this community and with the various other law enforcement agencies in our area. As a result, our department receives calls on a daily basis from citizens who know they can count on Precinct 8 to respond quickly to their needs. It is also common for other law enforcement agencies to call on us when they need assistance. I am proud of these partnerships and without a doubt; we have a solid reputation in this community. I intend to keep it that way".

"I entered this leadership position with somewhat of a unique perspective on what the job requires and what is expected of me. This is certainly not the time for an inexperienced leader who does not understand the complexity of running an agency. I have dedicated my career to serving the citizens of Precinct 8 and I believe in leadership through honesty, integrity, professionalism and fiscal responsibility. These are not just words to me but rather are the principles on which I have built my career."

He currently serves on the Senate District 4 Advisory Board to be a proponent of grassroots initiatives.

A proud Houstonian for over 50 years, Fred has been a part of District E since childhood. He grew up in the Sagemont area, lived in Clear Lake and now resides in Kingwood.

As an FBI spokesman, Connor Hagan manages daily press inquiries, coordinates media matters during critical incidents, and amplifies major FBI investigations for public awareness. In this role, Connor enjoys building lasting relationships with law enforcement partners, journalists, and community leaders across Texas while maintaining a dynamic FBI presence on social media.

In addition to his public affairs duties, he also serves on FBI Houston’s lifesaving Crisis Negotiation Team.

Over a decade ago, Connor began his FBI career as a covert member of FBI Milwaukee’s Special Surveillance Group. As part of that team, he conducted clandestine surveillance operations targeting foreign intelligence agents, suspected terrorists, and corrupt elected officials. He later transitioned into an investigative support role where he assisted counterterrorism, counterintelligence, and violent crime squads with complex investigations.

In 2018, Connor accepted an FBI public affairs position in Houston. Two years later, he transferred to serve as the sole FBI spokesman for Arkansas. During this time, he was selected for the FBI’s elite Media Fly Team where he deployed to numerous mass casualty incidents and special security events across the country.
