Re: Rick Perry indicted on two felony charges

Lehmberg was sued in late 2013 by Travis County Attorney David Escamilla to remove her from office. If you can stomach an op-ed piece from the incredibly left-leaning Austin Chronicle, here's a link.

The lawsuit to remove Lehmberg was unsuccessful. But there are some interesting artifacts from that case. Notably, this one: http://tacticsandtraining.com/TXCHL/Leh ... ceipts.pdf. Mind you, these represent Lehmberg's alcohol purchases from only one liquor store chain, not her total alcohol consumption.

From January 2012 to April 2013—15 months—Lehmberg made 59 purchases of alcohol at Twin Liquors stores, nearly one purchase per week, and adding up to 24.7 gallons of hard liquor.

Her drunk-driving arrest was no one-time fluke. Rosemary Lehmberg has a demonstrated history of significant and frequent alcohol consumption. She purchased vodka on the day of her arrest, and an open bottle of vodka was found in her car during the arrest.

According to the receipts, Lehmberg spent about $4,400 on alcohol during the 15-month period at Twin Liquors stores alone: a rate of $293 per month. That's at a single merchant.

This is the Austin District Attorney and head of the Public Integrity Unit of Texas.

This woman needs to be removed from office...and barred from any future judicial, legislative, or executive office.

The whole business is so nasty that I just contributed, again, to https://www.rickpac.org/.
