Some are calling for the water district to be investigated. What’s the status of public integrity cases in Tarrant County and across the state?

For two days in a row, Doreen Geiger joined a handful of others holding signs demanding a forensic audit in front of the Tarrant Regional Water District headquarters. Some cars slowed. Some honked.

 

Each day, they went inside the building to reiterate this demand as the board considered setting its tax rate and other matters.

 

“My comments today are not about the tax rate, but they are about money,” Geiger told the board during the public comment portion of the meeting. “TRWD does need an audit done every year like most other organizations have. This year, in particular, it needs a forensic audit so this board can make sure the new general manager makes all the needed changes to put a stop to waste and fraudulent spending of taxpayers’ money.”

 

Geiger felt this was necessary after the district’s previous general manager almost retired with what amounted to an additional year’s salary without the full board’s approval.

 

A statewide public integrity unit based out of the Travis County District Attorney’s Office used to investigate and prosecute cases such as the one Geiger is protesting at the water district.

 

Since the Texas Rangers took over that responsibility in 2015, 564 public integrity and corruption investigations have resulted in 67 prosecutions, according to a Texas Observer analysis.

 

Experts interviewed by the Austin-based publication said that this is because the Rangers often have to get permission from a local DA before they can launch a probe. The experts said some local DAs knew the accused and shielded them.

 

Only three of the 564 public integrity cases the Texas Rangers investigated involved officials from Tarrant County.

 

Because the Tarrant cases did not result in prosecutions, there are few public details about them.

 

Tarrant County District Attorney Sharen Wilson, who took office in in 2015, but after the change, said she has never turned away the Texas Rangers. Her office has a white collar/public integrity team that accepts cases from the Rangers and other law enforcement agencies. The team has been around since the 1980s and consists of three attorneys, three investigators and two financial analysts. It has about 211 pending cases, 15 of which involve a current or former elected official or person in a place of public trust….

>heteronyms

 

Youjust had to print that word didn’t you!

 

The term heteronym has multiple definitions, depending on its usage referring to grammar, its use in linguistics, or its use in literature:

 

In grammar, heteronyms are two or more words with the same spelling but different pronunciations and meanings. If using the term as an adjective, you would say the words are heteronymous.

 

In some fields of linguistics, the term heteronym refers to locally different words (or regionalisms) for certain more widely used words in the language. For example, in parts of the American South, a sidewalk (U.S.) or pavement (U.K.) is called a banquette.

 

In literature, the term heteronym sometimes refers to a writer's creative alter ego or persona. This usage was introduced by Portuguese poet Fernando Pessoa (1888–1935).

 

Examples of Heteronyms (Definition No. 1)

What's better to learn a term by seeing examples? Check these out:

 

You can lead (bring) someone to lead (the metallic element).

 

So he plays everyone, the coach can alternate (switch) between the team's alternates (substitutes).

 

You won't see many bass (fish) playing bass (musical instrument).

 

The lawyer objected (raised a concern) to the object (item) in Exhibit A.

 

To you, I present (give) this present (gift).

 

The convict (person in jail) had been convicted (found guilty) of planning an escape.

 

The Polish (heritage) lady polishes (shines) the silver.

 

That permit (license) will permit (grant) you to build the addition onto your house.
