Proverbs 17:15

He who justifies the wicked and he who condemns the righteous, Both of them alike are an abomination to the LORD

Have they blamed Benghazi on the PP videos yet? Those muslims are anti-choice y’know.

It’s a sad case of kill the messenger. Don’t even bother about what PP was doing. Disgusting.

Criminal discovery may not be as broad as civil discovery but it is much more unbalanced. The defense has the right to any and all exculpatory or prejudicial evidence from the prosecution while the prosecution has no such right at all due to the Fifth Amendment.

Discovery is a powerful tool. The accused will now have access to PP and the DA.

I'm not familiar with Texas law, but in most states, discovery is far more limited in a criminal case than in a civil case

In Texas, a grand jury is a tool of the prosecution. They only hear arguments and see evidence presented by the prosecutor.

Consequently, a grandy jury hearing is just a formality for a prosecutor to secure an indictment (or no-bill for police shootings).

The DA is female, Devon Anderson, a Republican...
She was appointed by Perry a few years ago to complete her hubs term after he died of cancer...
She is up for re-election this year....RINO maybe?

Governor Abbott of Texas decided on that grand jury. He was hoping it would result in charges against Planned Parenthood, but the legal system worked and the criminals themselves who commited crimes in their entrapment effort and illegaly tampered with evidence were indicted. Fancy that. If he hadn’t called the grand jury to try to score political points against Planned Parenthood this never would have happened. Ever heard of karma? Its a bitch!

Get your facts straight. Houston is a city with the city limits drawn to protect the democrat majority inside the city. Harris county has fixed boundaries and almost completely Republican controlled. The chances are very good that this stunt will cost the DA the next election since it was a county office.

Excuse me but I don’t think I implied that the County was lib, did I?
I think I implied that the city was lib within the County and the County offices are located in downtown Houston, if I’m not mistaken.....
No need to be so rude this early in the AM...

“Remember, Harris County is Houston which is a “sanctuary city”, has a lesbian mayor who does not recognize the First Amendment and is part of Sheila Jackson Lee’s district....”

“Excuse me but I don’t think I implied that the County was lib, did I?”

Yes, that is exactly what you did... and it was rude.
