Friends-
Do you currently live in a community where there is diversity among your county court judges? Do you live in a community where you have county court judges who have defended Individuals and that pesky stupid Constitution? Are you sick of that?
Need a change? How would you like to live in a community where All the county court judges have a law enforcement background? Imagine how lovely it would be to live in a community where you can enjoy a homogenous county court judiciary which has almost no background defending individuals?
Well, you need Look no further!!!!
Effective January, 2015, every single Harris County Court Judge will have cut their teeth locking people up for the police or the DA. That’s right, 15 out of 15 county criminal court judges have either been police officers or prosecutors. *
… Of course, our judiciary has no inherent prejudice in favor of the DAs Office; Any such suggestion is just bad manners. Our county court judiciary are all 100% fair,impartial, neutral and detached with no pro-prosecution agenda. Yes, and my name is Bugs Bunny.
Good luck- you will need it.
