I wrote previously about the case of Charles Malouff, a former cop convicted of illegally possessing “destructive devices” and who was supposedly facing life in prison after being charged with fraud. (The fraud case was related to federal grants for a wind farm near Austin.)
Malouff was convicted on the fraud charges, and has been sentenced to 15 years in prison. That sentence will run concurrently with his sentence on the other charges.
Judge Ken Anderson has resigned. You may remember former Judge Anderson as former Williamson County prosecutor Ken Anderson. You may also remember former prosecutor Anderson as the guy who wrongfully sent Michael Morton to prison for 25 years, and is now facing charges of concealing evidence that would have established Morton’s innocence at the time.
