Ronnie Earl not the drunken witch. They paid nothing!

In 2011, Lehmberg denied that the sentencing of former House Representative Tom DeLay to three years in prison was a form of political payback by her office. DeLay’s conviction was reversed on appeal; the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals found that prosecutors had insufficient evidence to prove their case.[8][9]
She was also on top of Rick Perry’s partisan indictment

ormer House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-Texas) was feeling a bit of déjà vu on Monday after Texas Gov. Rick Perry was indicted by the same office that DeLay faced nine years ago.
This is what they do, this is how they intimidate the elected officials in the state Legislature and the governor and around the state, DeLay said on Fox News Fox and Friends. If you say anything bad or against this office, theyll go after you.
DeLays comments came after Perry was indicted on Friday on two felony charges one count of abuse of official capacity and another for coercion of a public servant. The case stems from a dispute between Perry and Rosemary Lehmberg, the Travis County district attorney and head of the states Public Integrity Unit who was arrested for drunken driving in April 2013 and was sentenced to 45 days in jail. In the wake of that incident, Perry demanded that Lehmberg resign or he would veto funding for the Public Integrity Unit. When she refused to resign, Perry followed through with his threats with a line-item veto.
Nine years ago, the same unit had taken issue with DeLay and charged him with money laundering and conspiracy relating to his fundraising for the 2002 elections.
