Harris County District Attorney's Office Defending Itself In Court Today In Connection To DWI Bat Vans


Houston, Texas

In the ongoing investigation of the City of Houston and HPD’s controversial DWI BAT vans, four members of the Harris County District Attorney's office will be in court today. Instead of their usual duties prosecuting cases, they will be explaining what they were doing with what was supposed to be secret information.

Two prosecutors and two court reporters will have to explain to a judge why they have transcripts of what should have been secret grand jury testimony.

The obtaining records of that testimony by these four would be a violation of a court order. That is why assistant district attorneys Carl Hobbs and Steve Morris, and court reporters Javier Leal and Katherine Chagaris, are required to appear before a judge today.

At this hearing they must prove why they should not be held in contempt, and sanctioned.
