Good.
May God protect the sisters.
A heartening development.
I don’t trust blue zone prosecutors.
I assume this has to do with a possible shady real estate deal.
Sounds like this guy’s a real piece of work.

Shot himself in the foot that time
Good.
What a rotten individual.
“I don’t trust blue zone prosecutors.”
In general, neither do I. However, Philip Sorrells, the Tarrant County Criminal DA, is a former criminal court judge and a conservative Republican who defeated a career Democrat prosecutor by nearly 40,000 votes in 2022, 53%-47%. Biden reportedly carried the county by less than 2,000 votes in 2020. I trust that figure a lot less than I trust Phil Sorrells. There were a number of strange results and a flood of last-minute registrations in 2020, but the Texas GOP declined to pursue them since Trump carried the state comfortably and won nearly all the other races in the county. The county election administrator, at one time an employee of the company he later recommended to provide the county’s voting machines in 2019, resigned earlier this year, to the celebration of the GOP and widespread whining by the Democrats.
Incredibly, the Dems now claim Tarrant is a “blue county” or a “swing county,” despite getting shellacked in the midterms nearly across the board, by similar percentages to the Sorrells race. I believe it is safe to say that Tarrant County, despite the Presidential count in 2020, is not a blue zone, at least not yet.
