Who was indicted for violating the law?
And "what law"?

Apparently the Harris County Grand Jury just "looked at" PP. The problem is we don't know, and won't know, what was "looked at"! So, the "fine tooth comb" and then by the IRS to determine the "profit" issue ...
Why would they look at anything other than the videos if the videos do not show any indication of criminal actions? Again, the government does not and should not have the right to "search" anybody if they don't have just cause. Someone editing tapes to make them look bad does not amount to evidence of wrongdoing.
.. my "focus" on the "profit" had to do with the "costs" ....... particularly those "costs" that are attributed to "processing" the "order" that are "inhouse"! Since they get government funds there is a "low bar" to investigate their internal finances. There reports of expenditures must match their receipts and disbursements....and they have to segregate the receipts and expenditures. I doubt seriously the Harris County Grand Jury conducted any such an "audit"!
Even with a low bar, they still need to clear it. Are you suggesting that tapes that have been heavily edited to imply wrongdoing should be enough to trigger an audit? It's nothing more than an baseless accusations. I hope you don't believe this is enough.
Who, WTF?

Who and what "the law"?
This whole thread is about 2 people being indicted. How is it not obvious who we are talking about?
Since the "PP" received substantial government funding "just cause" exists
You've provided no evidence of any wrongdoing. This whole investigation was based on intentionally and deceptively edited tapes.
I doubt the Harris County Grand Jury did even close to an "audit."
You are probably right. Why would they further waste the tax payers money to audit something when they have absolutely no reason to believe they did anything wrong? Whether or not they can audit them is really besides the point. The reality is that there is nothing that suggests they did do anything wrong.
