Very good report. I attended the hearing also and just got back into Arlington.
The Harris County Assist. DA really opened my eyes to the way these guys think. His major complaint was about how hard it would be to overcome a presumption of innocence with the way the law was worded. He mentioned that outside of the traveling law, presumptions were in place to make it easier for prosecutors, not harder.
I have not had a chance to read the new text.
