Tarrant County District Attorney Phil Sorrells responded to questions about his call for Crystal Mason's voter fraud conviction to be reinstated.

The Tarrant County District Attorney was questioned about a decision to continue pursuing the illegal voting case of Crystal Mason that was overturned by an appeals court.More than 120 people signed up to speak on various high profile topics, including Mason's case."I want would-be illegal voters to know that we are watching, and that we‘ll follow the law and prosecute illegal voting," said Tarrant County District Attorney Phil Sorrells.

In March, the Second Court of Appeals ruled that Mason's conviction and 5-year sentence should be overturned because the state failed to prove Mason was unaware she was ineligible to vote."Is there not anything else, do you not have more pressing cases to deal with to get people out of this overcrowded jail?""I have a lot of cases that I deal with," Sorrell responded.
