Indictment Dropped in Denton Sheriff Perjury Case
An indictment against Denton County Sheriff Weldon Lucas charging perjury to a grand jury over an $8,000 gift from jail vendor Jack Madera was dismissed as Texas law requires perjury charges to come from a different grand jury. The ruling follows the grand jury testimony dispute. Another case involved an East Texas mother charged with capital murder over the bludgeoning deaths of two boys, Joshua and Luke, on Mother's Day last year, with a 14‑month‑old found injured in his crib.
