Houston police claim code error led to 264,000 criminal case suspensions
The Houston Police Department's investigation into dropped sexual assault cases has now been expanded to include about 264,000 more cases.

Houston Mayor John Whitmire came out Monday against the Houston Police Department's handling of thousands of police investigations that were suspended due to faulty computer codes.

"I am very concerned. It is unacceptable and I have instructed Chief Finner to be transparent and continue his review as a top priority," Whitmire said in a statement on X. "Public safety continues to be my highest priority."

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

Victims? Who cares about victims if you can claim that the crime rate is falling in your city?

Continued prayers for Trump's safety and that the Lord God Jesus Christ surrounds him with angels to protect him from all evil. 

May HE also have mercy on this country and stop the evil that keeps prevailing.
