Stiles and Babalola’s long-awaited red-light camera data app. Grissom’s two-parter on a powerful Texan’s quest to change the DPS report on the crash that killed his son. Ramshaw’s two-parter on transitional medicine. Thevenot on the charter school queue. And a ton of political news: KBH filed (but our TribCasters wondered about her path to the GOP nod); Debra Medina filed (and Hamilton tried to sort out what effect she’ll have on the race); Farouk Shami defiantly remained in the Democratic primary (but Hu couldn’t find evidence that he’d voted very often, let alone like a Democrat); and Rick Perry sent personalized messages to every Tom, Dick, and fill-in-the-blank. The best of our best from December 7 to 11, 2009
