<p> <strong>Terri Langford</strong> Born in Oceanside, California. Naturalized Texan. Comes by her tough love of government honestly. She majored in it at the University of Texas. First courtroom stories were in the Atticus Finch-like Lowndes County courthouse in Valdosta, Georgia, where two months into that first job for the Jacksonville-based Florida Times Union, she found herself covering a quadruple murder. Eventually moved to Jacksonville, covering social services and began unpacking the conflicted rules of government social work and public housing redevelopment for readers. Joined the Associated Press in Dallas and worked there and in Houston covering some of the state's biggest trials and complicated legal issues including the Branch Davidian standoff with ATF agents and the dragging death of James Byrd Jr. in Jasper, Texas as well as witnessing several state executions. Worked for the Dallas Morning News and the Houston Chronicle, where she covered everything from airport security, civil courts and the 9/11 attacks to the strains of the Texas Child Protective Services system, the state's removal of more than 400 children from their polygamist parents in West Texas, the Allan Stanford Ponzi scheme trial and the world of Medicare fraud in Houston's private ambulance networks. Langford was named Texas Reporter of the Year in 2011 for her work on the connection between private ambulances in Houston and the non-regulated mental health clinics there. Before joining the Tribune in March 2014, she tried her hand at public radio, working for WNYC in Trenton, covering New Jersey government. </p> <ul class="social_links"> <li><a href="/web/20150504005328/http://www.texastribune.org/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#a9ddc5c8c7cecfc6dbcde9ddccd1c8dadddbc0cbdcc7cc87c6dbce"> <i class="icon-envelope"></i> <span><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="552139343b32333a27311521302d342621273c37203b307b3a2732">[email protected]</span><script cf-hash="f9e31" type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */!function(){try{var t="currentScript"in document?document.currentScript:function(){for(var t=document.getElementsByTagName("script"),e=t.length;e--;)if(t[e].getAttribute("cf-hash"))return t[e]}();if(t&&t.previousSibling){var e,r,n,i,c=t.previousSibling,a=c.getAttribute("data-cfemail");if(a){for(e="",r=parseInt(a.substr(0,2),16),n=2;a.length-n;n+=2)i=parseInt(a.substr(n,2),16)^r,e+=String.fromCharCode(i);e=document.createTextNode(e),c.parentNode.replaceChild(e,c)}}}catch(u){}}();/* ]]> */</script></span> </a></li> <li><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150504005328/http://twitter.com/tlangford " target="_blank"> <i class="icon-twitter"></i> <span>@tlangford </span> </a></li> </ul> </div> <section id="contributions"> <a name="contributions"></a> <h2>Recent Contributions</h2> <div class="contributions"> <nav class="pagination"> <ul class="pagination"><li class="disabled"><span class="disabled prev"><span>&lsaquo;</span> previous</span></li><li><span class="current page">1</span></li><li><a href="?page=2#contributions" class="page">2</a></li><li><a href="?page=3#contributions" class="page">3</a></li><li><a href="?page=4#contributions" class="page">4</a></li><li><a class="disabled">…</a></li><li><a href="?page=7#contributions" class="page">7</a></li><li><a href="?page=8#contributions" class="page">8</a></li><li><a href="?page=9#contributions" class="page">9</a></li><li><a href="?page=10#contributions" class="page">10</a></li><li class="last"><a href="?page=2#contributions" class="next">next <span>&rsaquo;</span></a></li></ul> </nav> <article class=""> <header> <h1><a href="/web/20150504005328/http://www.texastribune.org/2015/05/01/panel-investigate-after-lawmaker-ejected-hearing/">Panel to Investigate After Lawmaker Ejected From Hearing</a></h1> </header> <div class="media story_page"> <a href="/web/20150504005328/http://www.texastribune.org/2015/05/01/panel-investigate-after-lawmaker-ejected-hearing/"> <img src="//web.archive.org/web/20150504005328im_/http://s3.amazonaws.com/static.texastribune.org/media/images/2015/04/27/Stickland_CU_TT_jpg_260x1000_q100.jpg" alt="State Rep.
