Texas Standard for December 19, 2016
The last word on the election of a new president? In Texas, it comes down to a vote at the Capitol today. We’ll explore the rules for electoral college discipline. And: Miguel Navarro was just 15 years old when he followed his older brother to a party, a party he never should’ve gone to in the first place. Before he or anyone else could realize what was happening, everything went horribly wrong. Miguel’s story, and what it tells us about kids and the criminal justice system in Texas. An exclusive investigation by the Texas Standard. Also: It’s bigger than Corpus Christi. A warning about water systems across Texas, and the high price of doing nothing to fix them. All that and more today on the Texas Standard:
