[Texas Democrat]State Rep. Miles indicted on deadly-conduct charges
Houston Chronicle ^ | April 14, 2008 | BRIAN ROGERS

State Rep. Borris Miles, D-Houston, was indicted today on two counts of deadly conduct stemming from a night of alleged bizarre behavior last December.

The class A misdemeanor carries a punishment range up to a year in jail and a $4,000 fine.

A warrant was issued today for his arrest with the bond set at $1,000, Harris County Sheriff's officials said.

Miles is accused of going to a St. Regis Hotel ballroom uninvited, confronting guests, displaying a pistol and forcibly kissing another's man's wife.

Miles, who represents District 146, is the subject of a lawsuit related to his behavior.

Miles is losing his seat after serving just a single term. He lost in the March Democratic primary, knocked out by Al Edwards, the 27-year legislator he ousted in a runoff two years ago.

Mike Glenn contributed to this report.

MSM’s getting sloppy. They forgot and put the “D” after his name.

Is this fellow a drinking man?

This behavior seems over the top, even for a (D).
