Alice, Texas
A former South Texas district attorney who pocketed more than $2 million in drug forfeiture money for himself and his staff has been sentenced to six months in jail.
Joe Frank Garza, former district attorney for Jim Wells and Brooks County, accepted the punishment in a plea deal Friday. The 64-year-old pleaded guilty in March to felony charges of supplementing his paycheck, and the paycheck of employees, with drug forfeiture funds from 2002 to 2008.
