Some of you may have read my story about an anonymous e-mail that was sent out targeting a Collin County commissioner for her support of teen court coordinator Justin Nichols, who’s openly gay.

Now, the Collin County Observer is reporting that another commissioner, Jerry Hoagland, has asked that a review of Nichols’ performance and employment be placed on an upcoming commission agenda. In response, Nichols has written a letter requesting that the review be done in a public hearing as opposed to a private executive session. Also, the online news service Queerty has picked up this story, so it will henceforth be playing out on a national stage. Stay tuned.
