Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott sent armed men to take critical evidence from a federal court's secure evidence locker. Now Abbott has lost 152 important pieces of evidence which will ruin the chance to prosecute criminal activity and which will ruin some people's right to seek justice in civil courts.

When Abbott was injured by a falling tree branch, Abbott sued for millions of dollars. Since getting his own millions, Abbott has fought against Texans who want the same access to the civil justice system that made Abbott a millionaire. Now, Abbott has lost critical evidence that will spoil civil cases and criminal prosecutions. How would Abbott have felt if some arrogant public official lost the evidence Abbott needed to prove his multi-million dollar lawsuit against a homeowner who had untrimmed tree branches on his property?

Please tell Abbott that he must stop the political grandstanding which has resulted in this evidence tampering and which has caused Texas citizens to pay for lawyers to defend the illegal Tom DeLay ballot scandal. Instead, Abbott should spend his time representing us against the predatory oil and gas pricing, protecting us against insurance monopolies, and investigating complaints against Texas Residential Construction Commission.
