RE: Ok Texans and Attorneys
There are some other cases I've read that are almost as frightening as this one. I used to think that the legal profession was generally honest and courts were usually just. I've come to realize this is not true.
In these cases, you have to really read the court documents closely to see the corruption. Our legal system sends a lot of innocent people to jail and bankrupts people simply because their opponent has influence over the judge.
Since the media doesn't talk about corruption in the legal system, we think it doesn't exist.

Exactly. When someone with power can arbitrarily ruin your life simply because they are "pissed off" at you, that's a problem. That's how it used to happen in the Soviet Union and seems to still happen here.
