McLENNAN COUNTY, Texas - The McLennan County District Attorney’s Office has announced District Attorney Abel Reyna has been selected to be the chairman of the executive board of the Special Prosecution Unit for the State of Texas.

The Special Prosecution Unit (SPU) was founded in 1984 to combat the growing gang violence in Texas prisons. Since then, SPU has expanded to include not just the prosecution of felony criminal offenses which occur inside prisons and juvenile justice facilities, but also the civil commitment of sexually violent predators.

Two Twin Peaks defense attorneys responded to the news, saying they were shocked.

This comes just one week after Abel Reyna getting accused of corruption and drug use.
