The journalists have filed their reports! Eek!

You may recall that a reporter from the English language bureau of Al Jazeera was here in town a few days ago doing a report on the Harris County Jail. This caused the local GOP, especially Jared Woodfill, to wet their pants. As Grits notes, the reporter in question has now filed his stories, which focus on problems of homelessness and mental illness and how the criminal justice system is left to deal with them, and apparently done a pretty good job with them. See for yourself, assuming you’re made of sterner stuff than Woodfill is, not that that’s a high bar to clear. And listen for the sound of all the heads exploding all around the county.
