Cash-hungry @HoustonTX & @HoustonMunCourt refuse to close (or delay opening) traffic ticket courts & make ppl wait in 24-degree cold 🥶

@Harvard scientist convicted of lying to federal agents. Aside from this case being extraordinarily sad, it is Exhibit “A” for why a person should never speak w/ a gov’t agent. Have a lawyer do it for you. https://t.co/HmxoeomX22

Cops claim he “smelt strongly of alcohol” had “glassy eyes” & was “swaying back and forth.” Also showed 5 of 8 clues on sobriety test. (Like every DWI police report ever written.) Blood alcohol = .02. If it can happen to #TheBoss it can happen to anyone https://t.co/7mDJ6Jdhwl

After my sweet little Daniel was murdered, I spent months calling for action to save lives like his. Now I need you to join me and sign our petition demanding more action to prevent school shootings like the one at Sandy Hook Elementary. -Mark

One criminal “justice” system for the rich & powerful and a completely different one for everyone else. Nothing new, just said to see .. https://t.co/Fh16UqJ4wd

⁦⁦@kimoggforda⁩ is responsible for HCJ overcrowding, b/c too many of her prosecutors push for jail time based on alleged bond or probation violations. Judges who don’t stand up to this BS share responsibility. ⁦@tcdla⁩ ⁦@HCCLA_org⁩ https://t.co/8cuYQqufd0

#HarrisCounty has spent millions gearing up for pandemic jury trials. It has spent *ZERO* surveying & studying whether jurors will represent a fair cross-section of the community. Huge issue ignored! ⁦@TCDLA⁩ ⁦@HCCLA_org⁩ ⁦@NACDL⁩ https://t.co/Pm88wFZog5

[Keri Blakinger @keribla]

This is wild, even by Texas standards: The judge in a death penalty case *hired the prosecutor* as his law clerk during trial.

And no one told the defense for 17 years!

Report: Harris County’s bail reforms let more people out of jail before trial — without raising risk of reoffending. Need bail reform in all 254 Texas counties! https://t.co/uHu5xUzw43

I believe ⁦@JudgeRamona⁩ is a good person & wants fairness in the 338th Dist. Court of Harris County. I hope she will immediately cease the practices that led to this complaint. ⁦@tcdla⁩ ⁦@HCCLA_org⁩ https://t.co/IUsAFFxlo5

⁦@LinaHidalgoTX⁩ : Opening local schools will not be safe “anytime in the near future”... But it’s safe to have jury duty in NRG Arena & trials in Harris County courthouses?? 🤷‍♂️ ⁦@TCDLA⁩ ⁦@HCCLA_org⁩ https://t.co/yhVGvBKYL9

When all 57 Buffalo police officers on the emergency response team resign because two were suspended for knocking down a 75-year-old man and sending him to the hospital, this seems like an opportunity to find 57 new police officers who don't approve of assaulting senior citizens.
