I wonder if it was this broad - Democrat District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg

Normally in Texas, that’s a 20 year sentence. Obviously money changed hands.
This is the state that introduced us to the term “afffluenza”?
Judges need retirement funding, don’t they?
Lot of mozque goers there both foreign and domestic.
Slip through a minor charge, get a quiet guilty plea to insulate the perp from charges on the serious crime. Then make a public record of the misdemeanor plea, and everyone wins except the victims and public.
Guessing the name. Sanchez. Dominguez. Rodriguez. Just a few stabs in the dark.

The intersection is in The Colony. the police department there doesn’t do on-line reports - you have to go in person. If it had been in Plano, getting a report would have been easy.
