PERRY PARDONS 35 PEOPLE IN 1999 TULIA DRUG BUSTS
When Kizzie White Applies For A Job Next Week, The Information On Her
Application Form Will Be Different.
The 26-year-old mother of two was one of 38 defendants convicted in a Tulia
drug sting on the word of an undercover agent later charged with perjury.
Friday, she and 34 other involved in the bust were granted pardons by Gov.
Rick Perry.
"We actually can put on our application 'never been convicted of a felony'"
White said. "I'm really free, and I thank God I am."
