This Ft. Worth Star Telegram editorial is in alignment with my reading of Judge Richardson's orders yesterday. The orders were a set back for the prosecution. According to the judge, neither Count in the indictment was sufficient. Judge Richardson is allowing the prosecution to amend the indictment, but reading between the lines, Judge Richardson is very sympathetic to former Gov. Perry.

A crime like the Governor is accused of consist of elements, all parts of the whole that must be proven to the jury if it goes that far, by the prosecutor to be there to be convicted of a crime.

The elements are like a recipe for baking. For example, if you bake bread, you might say that the elements you use are the ingredients mixed together in making that loaf of bread. Flour, yeast, baking soda, baking powder, salt, milk, etc. All of these are mixed together to have a loaf of bread ready to eat. If you leave out an ingredient like yeast, and put it in the oven to bake, when you finish you have something, but certainly not a loaf of bread. You have a hard lump of baked dough.

The prosecutors case against Perry is like that lump of baked dough. Its half baked.

Sure, Perry wanted to deny funds to that prosecutor. He did other things too, but all of his acts considered as a whole in its entirity do not add up to a crime. Like that loaf of bread baked without yeast, it falls flat too.

I spoke to a friend and colleage of mine that is a TX DA about this case.
It’s clear that the prosecution is either incompetent or malicious.
This case will go absolutely nowhere.
The charges simply cannot be sustained.
The only remaining question is how far it gets before being tossed for good.

Is this the case brought by the whore once caught driving with a BAC of something like .21 which is almost three times over the legal limit?
