AUSTIN A San Antonio senior judge confirmed Thursday that he will appoint a special prosecutor to investigate possible charges of abuse of office and coercion against Gov. Rick Perry.
Judge Robert Bert Richardson said he expected to select someone early next week, at which time an order will be prepared and filed with the court.
The investigation stems from the governors veto of $3.7 million in annual funding for Travis Countys Public Integrity Unit, which oversees public corruption and malfeasance complaints.

Rick Perry is one of the most corrupt Texas governors ever - quite an accomplishment.
