Update: An independent criminal investigator is inquiring into this case. 

Honorable DA Sharen Wilson,

I was advised by the Attorney General via the enclosed letter to contact your office to discuss documented interference in a FWPD investigation. The interference, according to your office and two FWPD officers, was conducted [by the Tarrant County District Attorney’s office] at the request of a local family that maintains close ties with the DA.

Please respond in writing that your office will or will not fulfill the AG’s request to appoint a District Attorney Pro Tem to act as a prosecutor in this matter.

Signed,

Edward Brown
