Tom Delay mentioned in an interview on Fox they intend to challenge the immunity of prosecutors with a lawsuit. I don't think he will prevail, but it will be interesting. The current DA was complaining the appeal judges weren't from Austin so to speak and plans to appeal; in so many words she thought they shouldn't be making such decisions. How ironic.EEllis wrote:Delay said he raised and spent 12 mil since the whole thing started and it took something like 7-8 years of his life. The situation is political because of the way the system is set up. The DA for Austin, notorious for being much more liberal that the rest of Texas, ends up being the Dthat prosecutes all State wide misconduct and corruption cases. That's right a locally elected official gets State wide prosecutorial discretion. Austin being so liberal surprise, surprise they elected a flaming liberal who used politics to determine who to charge.mamabearCali wrote:I am glad things have been straightened out finally. But how much time and treasure has he spent having to try and clear his good name. Did the DA have to go grand jury shopping to indite (spelling?) him to begin with. I am not familiar with the whole argument, but I remember at the time it seemed to be a politically motivated shakedown.
