This prosecutor indicted our Republican constable, Republican county commissioner our Republican county judge and our Republican District Attorney. Maybe you think that could not be done - well, yes it can. Those men had to go through trials and they were all found innocent.
Let me tell you this case. This Republican constable came upon a house trailer broken down in the middle of the road, around a curve. The man pulling the trailer had left. It was a rainy night and that trailer had to be moved or cars were going to hit it coming around that curve. The constable called our Republican County Commissioner whose district that was in. The Commissioner got a large piece of road equipment from his equipment yard, think it was a back hoe, to push it off the road. The old trailer was falling apart and some bit of damage happened while pushing it off the road.
So, this prosecutor filed a “hate crime” case against our Constable and Commissioner for damaging this trailer - it was owned by a black person so the prosecutor accused them of a “hate crime”. They, of course, had no idea a black person owned the trailer and it would not have mattered - the trailer had to be moved.
Our District Attorney was accused of spending some money in his budget without having it approved. That involved money from the state and a state official had to come to tell the court that money was spent exactly according to law. So, he was innocent.
During this time, this prosecutor would call certain people to testify before a grand jury trying to find something on this District Attorney. One of the people called was a computer person who was a friend of mine. She went to the grand jury and testified. The people on the grand jury said they did not believe her. They called her again and she testified and they said they did not believe her. They called her again, and we talked and decided she should take the 5th since they were not going to believe her anyway. So, she went and took the 5th and the grand jury (by the way the grand jury was picked by this district judge - they were her relatives and people who worked for her relatives), had a fit she took the 5th. She walked out of there and they did not call her again.
I had a townhouse in another county and went there to stay to avoid getting a summons to the grand jury. The sheriff asked my husband (he was the county chair) where I was. He said I was in another town and had no idea when I would be back. I had no information that would help the grand jury indict someone and it was evident, they would not believe me anyway.
A few years later, that female Democrat district judge was removed from office by the state commission that deals with judges. She was totally corrupt. I no longer have any respect for judges.
contact = contract
It’s a flawed system, but anything that involves human beings is flawed. I guess it will always be a bit of a shock when we realize that we’ve encountered a no-good skunk, but most people are all right, and some people are surprisingly good and kind.
The problem with judges and other state or federal types is that they have so much power. Power is seductive to the corrupt.
