Texas Standard for July 13, 2015
An undercover agent says the escape of Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman is like Osama bin Laden escaping prison. We’ll cover the breakout – and the fallout. Also: Four people died at a Houston area pesticide plant in November. Now the feds issue charges and promise to send a message to the chemical industry. Plus: Crime surges in Texas cities – the reversal of a downward trend? And: It’s the official play of the Lone Star State, seen by millions – but not so many Texans. All that and more, on the Standard.
