    The number of incidents that have been documented in the Texas DPS crime labs from 2005-2017……over 2500 incidents.

    Crime Laboratory System – 60 incidents
    Abilene Laboratory – 49 incidents
    Amarillo Laboratory – 40 incidents
    Austin Laboratory – 669 incidents
    CODIS Laboratory – 68 incidents
    Corpus Christi Laboratory – 38 indents
    El Paso Laboratory – 140 incidents
    Garland Laboratory – 278 incidents

    Laredo Laboratory – 37 incidents
    Lubbock Laboratory – 123 incidents
    Midland Laboratory – 18 incidents
    Tyler Laboratory – 139 incidents
    Waco Laboratory – 133 incidents

    How many of these negligence/misconduct incidents were reported to the FSC (as required per CCP 38.01)? How many lab managers and/or supervisors were reprimanded or fired for failing to curtail incidents from reoccurring? How many of these made the news?
