This past week, Reason TV released an investigative report about a smoke shop in tiny Alpine, Texas that was repeatedly raided by law enforcement, culminating in a disastrous DEA raid in May 2014.
The story hits a number of libertarian outrage buttons: militarized police raids, an abusive prosecutor, disturbingly subjective drug laws, First Amendment violations and intimidation of journalists.
"Sex, Spice, and Small-Town Texas Justice: The Purple Zone Raid." About 10 minutes. Written and Produced by Anthony L. Fisher. Camera by Todd Kranin. Additional camera by Fisher. Additional graphics by Meredith Bragg.
