1. I seem to remember Molly Ivis saying Tom found the one law
in Texas about fund raising and broke it - which is a neat trick. However I think the rest of the stuff he was doing, while unethical as hell, was not illegal in Texas. Which again brings one to stand in awe of Delay's Hubris.
The same prosecutor brought an indictment that was immediately thrown out of court against Kay Bailey Hutchison shortly after she was elected to the Senate.
I saw a post here not just a few moments ago that Earle had declined to pursue the indictment at trial and so she got a directed acquittal. That's different than it being quashed over the prosecutor's objections.
