Johnson ousts Reyna in DA race

Barry Johnson ousted two-term incumbent Abel Reyna as McLennan County district attorney, in a contentious race played out under the dark specter of the 2015 Twin Peaks shootout.

Johnson, 61, who practiced personal injury law in Dallas for 30 years before moving back to McLennan County last year, got 10,347 votes for 59.9 percent of the vote to Reyna’s 6,930 for 40.1 percent.

Johnson is a Waco native and son of Judge Joe N. Johnson, who served as justice of the peace for 24 years and judge of Waco’s 170th State District Court for 24 years. Johnson promised to serve with the same integrity as his father and to immediately review the more than 120 pending cases that remain from the Twin Peaks shootout that left nine bikers dead and dozens injured.

Wonderful!  Now, let's see if he has some things he needs to be held responsible for.
