The bexar Democrats are mostly hampered by their factionalism than their leadership. Although leadership is an aspect of that.

The raid in Houston where HPD murdered a middle aged couple in their own home gets worse and worse. Initially, HPD stated there was a controlled buy from a CI at the house in question, which is what they used to get the warrant. Now it's come out, that after interviewing *every CI*, none have ever bought drugs from the home that was raided and it seems like the officer made it up. Additionally, the officer had bags of heroin in his own car, so it looks like they were going to frame the couple, except the officer got shot during the raid. This whole thing is loving insane. At the end it may be a narcotics officer falsified a CI to get a fraudulent warrant to bust down these people's door to frame them as heroin dealers (who knows why) and during the execution of the raid, trigger happy HPD officers shot a bunch of other HPD officers (or the male murder victim was Annie Oakley and managed to shoot 5 cops with 6 shots from a revolver). https://www.click2houston.com/news/...arrant-reviewed https://twitter.com/stjbs/status/1096490554815401984

https://twitter.com/RespectableLaw/status/1096502857208082433 Pity seeing Acevedo circle the wagons here after building a rep of going after bad shoot perpetrators at APD. Now he definitely has to go if it turns out like it looks like it turns out.

Also, apparently Acevedo's promising that they'll put body cameras on entry teams, which seems like it's not really addressing the core issue here, but what would I know?

Body cameras wouldn't have made a lick of difference in this case. They're no answer to falsifying warrants and fabricating CIs.

corn in the bible posted:he should throw the department under the bus  If he's going to fall on his sword for this, he's got some weird/stupid sense of pride. Other people in your department hosed up, which is bad on you but not ultimately your direct fault. Take the hit but not the blame, IMO.

Still just going to end up with a bunch of no necked dipshits enforcing the exact same laws and policies. Not that they shouldn't be thrown under a metro bus on principle though.

There's no way Beto beats Cornyn (the GOP numbers will improve when the race gets closer) but someone please spam Beto's inbox with this so he runs anyway and helps downballot.

DA had to recuse himself because of his close personal friendship with the Attorney General. So the CCCC tried to screw the private prosecutors (as in pay them the same fee sked as public defenders) and they were like, we'll step down if you don't pay more, and CCCC sued them and it just got adjudicated by the state CoA in November in favor of Paxton because of loving course it did.
