Upholding the Rule of Law

Continuing education in action! Attorney Michael Ray Harris recently attended a hands-on training on forensic blood testing methods used in DUI and THC cases.

Why does this matter for clients? Because lab science isn't as black-and-white as prosecutors make it sound. For example, did you know there are legal and illegal variants of THC that look nearly identical under standard testing — and that something as simple as a hot car can chemically convert one into the other?

Michael breaks down exactly how this happens (and how it can affect your case) in our latest blog post. Link below 👇

A forensic lab test for THC is one of the biggest areas where things can go wrong. There are three THC variants that we know of at this time. Delta-8 and Delta-11 variants are legal and don’t impair driving. The Delta-9 variant is currently illegal in Texas and potentially impairs driving. The mai...

We can’t go on with a legal system that punishes private citizens for insider trading while over looking it for those with political power.

Conservative commentator Tucker Carlson has delivered a sharp criticism of President Donald Trump over the issue of political power and personal financial gain, saying any president who uses public office to enrich themselves or their family should be considered unfit for the job.

Speaking during a podcast conversation with former US Senator Jim Webb, Carlson argued that there should be a clear ethical line for anyone holding the highest office in the country. According to him, presidents should never use their position, influence or government power for personal or family benefit.

“You can’t use the office to enrich yourself or your family,” Carlson said. He added that any president who does so is “by definition unfit for the office.”

Carlson also criticised the political culture that, in his view, has become increasingly willing to overlook such behaviour. He suggested that the failure to openly condemn the use of public office for personal enrichment shows how political standards and accountability have weakened.

While his remarks were made in the context of his broader criticism of Trump, they have added to the debate over presidential ethics, conflicts of interest and whether political leaders should face greater scrutiny when their actions are alleged to financially benefit themselves or their families.

BREAKING: 50 Officers Accused Of Using Flock Cameras To Stalk Women.

Officers allegedly used the cameras to track wives, girlfriends, exes, exes’ new partners, and women they wanted to meet.

Flock cameras do not just read plates. They can tie a car to a time and location, creating a map of where someone lives, works, worships, takes their kids, and who they see.

Most were not caught because police were looking for misuse. The women had to realize they were being watched and report it themselves.

That means someone could be searching where you go, and you may never know unless you figure it out first.

The same technology is already used all over Collin County.

Police say it helps find stolen cars, missing people, and dangerous suspects.

But who watches the people with the power to secretly search where someone goes?

Should Collin County cities require independent oversight before expanding Flock cameras?

I handled federal financial fraud cases as an attorney. So I can tell you the feds either have Jeffery Epstein’s financial records or they chose NOT to have them so that the didn’t have to release them.

Speaking as a lawyer, we can’t have one set of insider trading crime laws for ordinary citizens and another set of laws for those with political connects. That’s what led to the French Revolution.

I think we’re just seeing the start of a pattern of people in law enforcement mis-using surveillance technology.

Nearly 20 officers have been fired and charged with crimes related to their illegal use of the surveillance technology, and the number continues to rise.
