Here is something you don't see every day:

DETROIT -- Two men remain in prison for a cocaine bust, despite felony charges leveled Tuesday against the judge, prosecutor and police officers who sent them there.

Retired Wayne Circuit Judge Mary Waterstone, former Assistant Wayne County Prosecutor Karen Plants and two Inkster Police officers were arraigned by a 36th District magistrate on misconduct charges for allegedly hiding the fact that a witness for the prosecution was a paid police informant who helped police set up the bust.

Do not be surprised when this story is offered as an indicator that Texas needs to pass the sundry bills criminalizing Brady violations. The folks in this story today are likely to become the archetypal "we all know they all do it" prosecutors of tomorrow.
