They are wrong and we are right. That's why Williamson county is often in the spotlight. While they are rightly condemned for being such a stark contrast, they are not alone. Let's face it--many Texas counties are just as backward as Williamson county.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-83899698254527610622011-10-18T11:39:37.092-05:002011-10-18T11:39:37.092-05:00Over the years I have marveled at the misconduct o...Over the years I have marveled at the misconduct of Mr Bradley and how it has been swept under the rug. As I stated once before in this blog, the minute that an outrageous conduct comes to light in the news, Mr Badley typically settles with the attorneys on the allegations so that the issue is removed from the public eye - and it costs the taxpaper big time every time he does that. Of course, he must have the approval of other authorities within the close knit circle of authority loop to be able to pull it off. Even trying to find old articles of such is almost impossible years down the road. It would be informative to have a list of such actions that have occurred over the years.....I remember so many. This case is especially sad because not only did an innocent person spend years in jail, a second person may have been killed as a result of their devious and unlawful behavior. It should not go unpunished or ignored, If the Williamson County residents allow it, then they are as guilty as the folks who committed the crime in my opinion. It is time to take off the blinders and see what has been going on for years while they were touting being "tough". How sad is that?<br />Totally unacceptable. I sure that if Mr Bradley or Mr Anderson's family member had been killed instead of Mrs Morton, they would be able to understand the depth of what their actions meant to all. I do not wish ill for any of them, but it might help them to understand what they have done if they considered walking in the other person's shoes for a brief moment. <br /><br />I for one would advocate that the Courts be required to show annually the amount of funds that are expended for settlement of lawsuits filed against the courts , officials, or employees that are outside the boundaries of their authority or law. The annual budget currently lumps all that total together and represents it as a small percentage of the overall budget spent. It would have much more meaning if they were required to PUBLISH the case specific amount of selttlement, award, or other agreement amounts and the administrative costs to settle these types of things. Over the years as I watched, the amount in specific dollars expended by the tax payer is substantial and I think the Williamson County people would be surprised to see what has been going on for years and remove the blinders. I do not feel that Williamson County is tough on crime because they are not tough ALL CRIMES INCLUDING THE ONES COMMITTED BY THEIR OWN OFFICIALS AND ENTITIES. That is not justice - that is more like MAFIA rules. Unfortunately, I believe that our great nation is suffering from this sort of attitude that has been afforded to many privileged people, either via money stature or powoer afforded them via a position or public office. It is time for a change.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-61238919974773480492011-10-17T17:51:51.019-05:002011-10-17T17:51:51.019-05:00Amen Scott, way too little and way too late.
I ...Amen Scott, way too little and way too late. <br /><br />I also have concerns with a special prosecutor being appointed by the AG I was hoping for a Federal Prosecutor.<br /><br />And speaking of the local media, The Round Rock Leader is also reporting on the Michael Morton Case. Its about high damn time. The Williamson County people typically only read about what a wonderful safe place it is and how businesses are attracted to this area blah blah blah. Between the RR Leader and the Williamson County Sun very little has been reported regarding the unethical practices of quite a few elected officals.billnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-89912055010557033042011-10-17T12:59:08.720-05:002011-10-17T12:59:08.720-05:00LOL what a CRIMINAL joke!

I base that comment in part on the AGs role in the Mineola Swingers Club cases in Smith County. At one point, DA Matt (Nifong) Bingham tried to turn the case over to the AGs office after he was caught withholding evidence. The AGs office did get involved briefly, just long enough to figure out they wanted no part of the case. However, I'm sure they became aware of the serious misconduct that had occurred in the case committed by Bingham, assistant DA Murphy, and the judge, Jack Skeen. Yet, the AGs office did nothing and turned a blind eye to the abuses that resulted in several likely innocent defendants receiving life sentences (fortunately most of those have been overturned, no thanks to the AGs office). Nope, the people of Texas can't count on the AGs office to see that justice is done.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-67955843024248056832011-10-17T11:37:55.873-05:002011-10-17T11:37:55.873-05:00I wouldn't hold my breathe for anything useful...I wouldn't hold my breathe for anything useful to come from the AGs office. From what I've seen they tend to do what the DAs want them to do. So, in this case, they'll probably just do a cursory investigation and determine that there is nothing to prosecute. Then Bradley can proclaim they were all vindicated.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
