The news of Texas covered today includes:
Our Lone Star story of the day: A federal judge has ruled that Texas prison heat (no A/C) is unconstitutional but holds short of ordering air conditioning. However, oddly in my opinion, he is still making the plaintiffs engage in a “bench trial” over the issue. What’s the point of that given that he has already made the underlying decision. And on that note, even acknowledging that there are problems with heat in some Texas prisons, how in the world is no A/C unconstitutional when the framers and founders had no such thing at the time they wrote and passed the constitution?
