Is This The Person Cops Found Buried Near Wise County

This "missing person" story is poorly written, but it appears she was last seen in early 2012 at home where a murder* of another person had occurred (or would occur), and the body in that murder was found at a different location on the northeast side of Eagle Mountain Lake. I don't know exactly where the body found this week was located, but it was in that part of Tarrant County.
_________
*That murder, authorities claim, had ties to the Aryan Brotherhood. That's a coincidence because that organization, if you can call it that, has been mentioned today in connection with the Kaufman county prosecutor.

Edit: Channel 11 says victim is DA's investigator.

Edit: WFAA says it is a prosecutor.

Edit: It's a prosecutor and it sounds like a "hit".

Reporter With A Somewhat Shocking Retort

Random Thursday Morning Thoughts

• There's all sorts of talk of Rick Perry making another run for the Presidency. If so, he is delusional.
• Police dug up a body just across the Wise County line in Tarrant County a couple of days ago. It'll hit the news in a couple of days.
• Former Aggie great from the late 1980s Darren Lewis was charged with aggravated robbery. I wonder, seriously, if watching the Aggies this year made him despondent about a better time in his life.
• Dumb question: Do none of the big name cowboys (i.e. Trevor Brazile) take part in any of the rodeos at the Stock Show?
• I was watching a college basketball with the Fourth Grader in the House last night and had to explain why teams intentionally foul in the last minute and, thus, slowing down the game. She suggested that the team who gets fouled automatically get half a point and retain possession of the ball. Not a bad idea.
• Allen High School has a band of about a billion members and had had the same band director since 1999.  He suddenly quit, became a middle school teacher, and no one will say why.
• There's a boy being held in an underground bunker by a guy who took him from a school bus after shooting the driver. You would think this would get Baby Jessica-like news coverage.
• "Tarrant County Tax Assessor Ron Wright said Wednesday that District Attorney Joe Shannon should resign because of sexual harassment charges that became public last week." That's just weird. You don't see old white Republicans in Tarrant County taking shots at fellow Republicans.
• If you ever visit one of those "Emergency Clinics" popping up around the metroplex, be prepared for a shockingly high bill. And I'm talking in the four digits kind of shocking.

Ladies!

Ouch. I'd be on the floor.

And that ref who didn't blow his whistle gives a whole new meaning to "let 'em play."

And Another - Arizona

Man, this one is really similar to the Mansfield gal that was tried in Tarrant County last year.

I'm Not Sure That Protective Order Would Do Much Good Anyway

An Ohio woman who was seeking an order of protection against her ex-boyfriend was brutally assaulted by the man inside a Domestic Relations courtroom last week, an attack that was recorded by a surveillance camera.

As seen in the above video, the attack by Rashad Greene, 30, occurred after he was briefly left alone in the courtroom with Dominique Morrow, 28, and Greene’s grandmother.

Greene and Morrow were in the Summit County courtroom for a hearing in connection with Morrow’s application this month for a restraining order against Greene, whom she has accused of making threats and abusing her. (More)

Random Wednesday Morning Thoughts

• Gov. Perry's assertion yesterday that the multi-billion dollar Rainy Day Fund be returned to the taxpayers is nothing but smoke.
• "Five people, including two men that investigators believe to be pimps, were arrested on charges stemming from a prostitution sting in Weatherford late Friday and early Saturday. Law enforcment [sic] officers with the Weatherford-Parker County Special Crimes Unit targeted online ads on Backpage.com and FWWeekly.com advertising services." Are there too many cops in this state?
• Mrs. LL has decided that The Family Pup needs to have puppies, and a "date" was set up with another Yorkie yesterday. I'm sooooooo keeping out of this and any conversation that goes with it. 
• Jason London, who I'm not sure I've seen since Dazed and Confused, got arrested and has one of the craziest book in photos ever. 
• It was a crazy day in the metroplex yesterday: (1) A huge line of storms with hail, (2) a man shoots his co-worker to death in Grand Prairie, (3) a Fort Worth cop was shot and is in critical condition, (4) T. Boone Pickens grandson dies, (5) cops were called to a conveniences store at I-30 and Watson in Arlington last night to find three people shot, two of them "critically" and (6) the teacher turns herself in for the hit and run death of child. Whew.
• And if Pickens, a TCU student died from a drug overdose as NBC5 is speculating about, then TCU's drug reputation is getting bad.
• Has Modern Family gone horribly downhill this season?
• Amazon announced today that it is building a 1.1 million shipping center in Haslet.
• I'm stunned that the female trooper involved in the caught-on-tape intrusive searching of two women a month or so ago was fired.  DPS normally stands by their own but they sacrificed that woman.
• Thanks for all the travel tips from Monday. (But pricing travel online is enough to take the fun out of a vacation.)

Random Tuesday Morning Thoughts

• 730 South of Decatur is shut down right now due to a jackknifed tractor trailer. 
• Got to love the guy who tried to impersonate a fire marshal in order to avoid a $10 cover charge at the Glass Cactus in Grapevine.
• Todd Staples was on the Mark Davis Show this morning. He's the Texas Ag Commissioner running for Lieutenant Governor. He's also a guy who refers to himself in the third person to a nauseating degree.
• What a weird day: We've got a Red Flag Warning for potential fires with an 80% chance of rain as well. 
• The guy who shined a laser into a Dallas PD helicopter was described as was described on Fox 4 News last night as wearing only boxers and smoking a cigarette. Heather Hays tried to make a joke out of it but everyone laid out on her.
• The Tarrant County DA is taking heat for the "no fault" settlement of a sexual harassment claim. But, as expected, the taxpayer spokesman for his office was defending him in a "statement" released to news outlets. However, that statement is conspicuously absent from the archive page of news releases.
• When a dispatcher sends out a "second tone" to a local fire department in Wise County, does that mean no responded to the first?
• That monkey that Iran says it sent into space may be the saddest looking monkey ever. 
• The conservatives don't sound too excited about proposed immigration reform.
