This is true. I'm glad the guy's free, if he didn't really do it.
But believe me, this is the beginning of the end for the upswing in justice we've experienced since the terrible, dark days of the 1960s.

I don't believe that this guy is totally innocent either; the prosecutor decided to prosecute this man (instead of both accused) due to the lab's faulty DNA work. However, if the lab's DNA work is faulty, what else in the prosecutor's 'evidence bag' is also faulty?

I know many honest people who work at HPD. I know a few very well. They have told me for a long time that HPDs DNA lab was dishonest and encouraged its scientists to give misleading evidence at court. HPD is a very corrupt organization at the top, and decisions are made purely on the basis of how will this further my political career. Believe me, I am not anti-police; in fact, I am very pro law enforcement. Its just a fact that HPD has serious problems, and the first to tell you that are honest HPD officers, the type who have worked there for 20 to 30 years. Its very scary, and that is one of the reasons that I live in a smaller jurisdiction just outside of Houston proper (the burbs!).
