Is there a Simi Valley in Texas?
Tom's boys are looking for a change of venue.

They need a place where the jury could theoretically watch the crimes in progress with their own eyes and then let old Tom off the hook.

Any ideas?

1. Move it to Weslaco in Hidalgo County
in the Rio Grande Valley.

2. He'd probably pick Harris or Ft. Bend County, where he's
from and where his supposed base is. But I live here (yes, he's my rep:eyes:) and I'd love to be on that jury!:evilgrin:

4. Pretty much any country other than....
Travis Co. (Austin) and much of the valley region (that 3rd world hispanic area next to Mexico).... Keep in mind that any jury will be mostly sheep with no political activism at all. After all, less than 50% of the total population (eg potential jury members) actually bother to vote. Of that around 50% actually vote republican.

So bottom line, even in Texas, only about one quarter to one third (25%-33%) of the population are active republicans. Unfortunately, something a bit less than that are active Democrats and the rest...well they just don't give a damn.
