Borris Miles Indicted!
Update: 5:00 pm Responding to commenters as to why I didn't cover the Hubert Vo controversy, and now covering this one.. If you are a regular reader of this blog, you know I was in China all last week, kind of hard to cover an elected official when I'm on the other side of the world (and my blog's being blocked by the Chinese censors.) And yes, Borris Miles is a Democrat.. I thought everyone knew that. Now, back to the issue at hand. No, Miles has not turned himself in yet. And despite the fact that he's been shopping for a big name criminal defense attorney in the past few months (serious, serious shopping), he hasn't hired one yet, as far as we know.
Update: 4:00 pm We hear arrest warrent has been issued for Miles.
HOUSTON (KTRK) -- State Representative Borris Miles has been indicted on two counts of deadly conduct. The indictments stem from two different incidents on the same day back in December. The first incident happened during a Rockets/Mavericks game at Toyota Center. At a facility lounge, Miles allegedly pulled a gun on TSU regent Willard Jackson's wife. The second incident took place at a party thrown by businessman David Harris later that same night. At the party, Miles allegedly pulled a gun on Harris.
Apparently, Miles alledgedly pulled the gun inside the swanky Lexus Lounge at the Toyota Center. They then moved on to the St. Regis hotel, where the alledged incidents there have been well documented. Stay Tuned!
How come you are covering the Miles controversy but not a peep about the Hubert Vo slumlord scandal?

Party affiliation not mentioned in the story. He must be a Democrat!
Thank heaven for the professional, unbiased MSM!

So he has turned to guns? Must be one of those frustrated small town boys Obama was talking about. Will Miles turn to religion next? Maybe in jail...
