Per tonight's A-block on @vanitaguptaCR and @JohnCornyn and the Tulia Texas drug arrests scandal -- go back to the beginning here with @Nate_Blakeslee at Texas Monthly:

Bust Town
It's been two years since Tulia's tainted drug busts first came to light. Do you really want to know how little has changed there?

5. K&R and thanks. Note the Texas Monthly article is from November, 2002.

Just watched Rachel Maddow's piece on MSNBC on this case and she's great as usual.

The wheels of justice turn slowly in America but for POC, they rarely turn the right way and usually have to be jump started by external forces.

We continue to evolve........

8. Yes. Someone needs to do an update from Tulia now.

That cop only got 10 years PROBATION.

6. Cornyn is a particularly disgusting piece of trash.

9. +1000. If only people LOOKED like their character. He literally

wouldn't be able to get a job as a Walmart greeter.

7. That was an amazing piece by Rachel. I had no idea Vanita was the attorney responsible

for blowing it up. Explains why Cornyn hates her.
