AUSTIN — A grand jury indicted Gov. Rick Perry on two counts of Friday, accusing him of abusing his veto power by threatening to withhold funding from the Travis County's public corruption unit if the district attorney did not resign following her drunken driving arrest.
The Travis County grand jury, led by special prosecutor Mike McCrum, indicted Perry on one count of abuse of official capacity, a first-degree felony, and coercion of a public servant, a third-degree felony.
Sounds like everyone involved is a douche. Travis County is basically the Austin metro area.
Everything he did was pretty much out in the open. It's not new news. It's not like they found a smoking gun. They just decided to indict him for what he openly admitted to doing. Should be interesting.
