State District Judge James Wilson knew his campaign was going to be ugly.
And that was before he had an opponent.
First, Wilson's friends distributed a cartoon last summer portraying prosecutor Mollee Westfall, who hadn't officially decided to enter the Republican Party primary, in a tight, black "Girlz Gone Wild" T-shirt and saying, "I've been a very bad girl." ...
Wilson recently had to step down from Arlington pastor Terry Hornbuckle's sexual assault trial after defense attorney Mike Heiskell accused Wilson of being biased, prejudiced and setting an unreasonably high bond.
In court records, Heiskell said Wilson swore at him and demanded that he "leave my court and never come back."
