The story of the love e-mails the
Harris County District Attorney Charles A. Rosenthal Jr. sent to his secretary Kerry
Stevens already put a mark of his political career, as his party leaders forced
him to retire from the race for a third term position. But things did not stop
here. A federal court approved on Monday the public release of several other
materials that have been found in his e-mails, which include racist remarks and
jokes, as well as pornographic material.
Charles A. Rosenthal, who has
been a prosecutor for 30 years, was not available for comments on the new
allegations, so no one really knows what the DA stands for at the moment. However,
the real issue here is not whether he had an affair with his secretary or not,
but rather what kind of a prosecutor he’s been during his long time career, as an
e-mail containing discussions on modifying a criminal record in order to help
his son, who is a lawyer, win a case was also made public on Monday.
Mr. Rosenthal had been planning
for some time now to run for re-elections as a district attorney, but his plans
have been overturned by his Republican Party leaders, who announced last
Wednesday that his name was no longer on the list after a political meeting at
the party’s headquarters in Houston, and the reason for that was that his
reputation had been compromised. Rosenthal refused to discuss the announcement.
When the love scandal between
Rosenthal, who is at his second marriage, and his secretary, whom he had an
affair with during his first marriage, was made public, the only thing he could
be accused of was his morality, but it appears not to be the case anymore, as
everyone awaits further investigations to unveil more on the Harris County DA
deeds. He is currently involved in a civil right lawsuit, where he is accused
of trying to cover for several sheriff deputies who have been caught on tape
while abusing a family during a search warrant execution.
