In this post I will focus on a story by The Texas Tribune  about lawyer Keith Hampton
(D) and how he pursues to beat Sharon Keller (R) as presiding judge for the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals. I find this article rather interesting because although The Tribune is a nonpartisan source of news media, the article seems to showcase this Democratic lawyer. What's also interesting is that the article is the way it is because Sharon Keller herself didn't respond with any commentary to defend herself when this story was being constructed. Which makes me think that, if one were to be mainstreamed like Keller was in this story; wouldn't she want to explain her own reasoning and not have other outside mediums defend her when it's her fight?

To conclude, I just feel that whatever controversies this woman was involved with, Keller displays a lack of competance as judge and would like to see how things turn out in the end for our criminal appeals system.
