Ken Anderson appears for civil hearing in Morton case

[TexasTowelie]

WILLIAMSON COUNTY -- A civil hearing for former Williamson County District Attorney Ken Anderson was held Friday afternoon.

Anderson faces felony charges with how he handled Michael Morton's murder trial back in 1987.

On Aug. 30 Anderson will be in court in Georgetown so a visiting judge can hear a motion from the State Bar of Texas' Commission for Lawyer Discipline. The result could be Anderson being disbarred.

The motion was filed on July 24 and states that Anderson “committed professional misconduct by violating State Bar Rules … and that {Moore} then set this matter for hearing evidence before the bench to determine an appropriate sanction to be imposed against {Anderson}.”

1. He needs to be disbarred and serve the same amount of time Morton did.

He needs to become an example to other "jail them all at all costs" DAs to cure them of that attitude.
