This was an episode that, in a sense, transformed a small but cohesive activist community that had emerged from the Dallas Gay Alliance, which I had become a member of in 1977. One of the most important things that I was involved with as a young lawyer was related to the “Village Station Busts” on October 25, 1979. I moved to Texas on April 30, 1969, completed college at University of Texas at Arlington I worked as a juvenile probation officer at Dallas County, went to law school in San Antonio, became a lawyer and practiced law for thirteen years before taking my present job as President and CEO at AIDS Services of Dallas.
