General information-
The 51st District attorney general is Stephen R. Lupton, up for re-election in 2008.
Attorney Allison Palmer would be in charge of any criminal prosecutions arising from any charges arising from the FLDS action; she has stated that she likely will need help from the State Attorney General's office if any charges are filed from the FLDS action.

Digression-
Eldorado is the county seat of Schleicher County, 1300 sq. mi, and only 2800 people, 48% Hispanic. (dunno if the FLDS ranch population is included). The 51st District also includes Tom Green County and the city of San Angelo, which is the seat of the court led by Judge Barbara Walther.
San Angelo is the seat of Tom Green County, county pop. 103,000, 1522 sq. mi., about 33% Hispanic.
