Lubbock County's district attorney is warning of a public safety risk due to budget constraints. The office is currently short 10 prosecutors, which is a significant portion of the attorney workforce. This shortage is attributed to flat funding, which is causing attorneys to leave for better-paying jobs.

The district attorney has expressed concern about the office's current state, citing a lack of raises for employees as a major issue. Further details on the situation and the district attorney's efforts to address it are available through KCBD News.
