Fort Worth Documents Prove Watkins Lied on Resume

Documents, including his resume and work history, prove that a D.A. candidate Craig Watkins lied on his resume and campaign literature furnished to voters.

Instead of working as a prosecutor or even an "intern prosecutor," as Watkins is currently claiming, records show he was a part time intern from May, 1993 through August, 1993.  Watkins didn't earn his law license until November, 1994--required credentials to be a prosecutor.

The following are documents provided to Dallas.Org by the Tarrant County District Attorney's office.

This is Watkins employment record for the 4 months he worked for the Tarrant County D.A.'s office.  Records clearly label Watkins as "non-attorney personnel."  It also shows he worked for $8.65 an hour, part time, as an intern.  Watkins was not qualified to be a prosecutor because he didn't earn his law license until almost a year and a half later.

The following is Watkins resume furnished to the Tarrant County D.A.'s office.  It shows him, at the time, enrolled in Texas Wesleyan School of Law classified as a 3rd year law student.  An important question raised by this campaign is: "did Watkins misrepresent his legal credentials?"

If so, is this an offense against the ethics of the Texas Bar?
