Transcribe →Guadalupe Floods and Climate Change | Texas News
Yesterday00:01:28Tap to summarizeTexas braces for more extreme weather as the Guadalupe River floods again, killing two and rescuing over 230 people — a grim echo of last year’s disaster. Scientists say while climate change didn’t spawn the storms, it’s making them wetter by supercharging rainfall through a warmer atmosphere. Outdated flood models, based on data from 2018 or earlier, may no longer capture the intensity of today’s downpours. Though historical records show no clear trend, the science is clear: extreme rain is getting heavier, and communities need to adapt before the next big flood hits.

Transcribe →Six Years of Wrongful Charges | Texas News
Yesterday00:02:05Tap to summarizeFormer Williamson County Sheriff Robert Chody and ex-chief counsel Jason Nassour are suing Travis and Williamson County DAs after being wrongfully charged for allegedly destroying video footage from a reality TV show that captured a fatal police encounter. The indictment, which hung over them for six years, was finally dropped in July — but not before they filed suit claiming federal law barred them from seizing the footage, which belonged to Big Fish Entertainment and showed deputies using force during the arrest of Javier Ambler in 2019. Their lawyer calls the prosecution’s pursuit “vindictive persecution,” arguing it wasted years and taxpayer resources chasing an impossible crime. The lawsuit also alleges the Travis County subpoena was legally flawed — improperly addressed, demanding immediate production, and received too late — and seeks unspecified damages in this high-stakes legal battle over evidence handling and prosecutorial overreach.
