Sorting out the Quanell X confusion
A reader emails:
Why is the Chronicle ignoring the Quanell X story?? Not a word about it!
The Chronicle did report on the story, but I can't find it on their website either. Two Chronicle stories turn up on Google News, here and here.
The local television stations, including Chronicle partner KHOU, have all covered the story:
HPD chief weighs in on controversial arrest of local activist (KTRK 13)
Protesters mark activist's court date for evading arrest charges (KTRK 13)
Supporters rally around Quanell X (KHOU 11)
Supporters Hold Rally For Arrested Activist (KPRC 2)
Quanell X appears in court for evading arrest charge (News 24)
It's far too early to say who is at fault for this breakdown, but it does appear from reports that Quanell X was cooperating with HPD to bring in this suspect, and that something went terribly wrong. The new police chief needs to get to the bottom of this, quickly.
