Today, the six board members of the Texas Youth Commission (TYC) became the latest to
resign in the wake of the Observer's
February story on sexual abuse at a state youth correctional facility and its cover-up, the Dallas Morning News reports. The board resigned two days after the State Senate voted for their ouster, but not before they approved
a rehabilitation plan for the TYC. Meanwhile, the Observer
has uncovered yet another disciplinary report relating to the scandal that was altered with the apparent approval of the TYC's leadership.
