Have you heard of Tulia, Texas?

In Tulia, Texas a washed up officer from San Antonio joined the Sheriff's department as a narcotics officer and proceded to take the money he was given to make drug buys and used it to pay off his debts, then trumped up charges on 40 mostly black citizens. With incompetent defense attorneys and prejudiced white juries they started handing out lengthy convictions to this group. Finally, some liberal east cost types got wind of this and came in to their rescue ;-). Given my personal experience, I have no doubt that this thing is routine in the war on drugs. Wake up!.
