Description
On this week’s episode, EJ and Jimmy start with talking about the potential mishandling of DNA evidence by a Tarrant County crime lab over the last two years (1:43). They also touch on the first findings from the recent survey done by the Citizens Oversight Committee around police oversight (4:33) and bars once again being left out of reopening plans by Governor Greg Abbott (11:09). The big story for this week is around the decision by the FWISD School Board to keep their plan for reopening schools October 5 after a seven hour discussion last Tuesday, along with their plan to reconvene this week to reevaluate that decision (17:21). Finally, they end with their wins and losses for the week, including mourning the passing of RBG, and what that means for this election moving forward (32:54).
