James Preston Green had just rammed his Kia Soul into a Toyota Camry at high speed on Wurzbach Parkway, then fled on foot before being captured. His blood alcohol content was more than twice the legal limit, and he already was on probation for a previous felony DWI in Guadalupe County. As he rode to jail in the back of a patrol car that night of Jan. 13, an officer asked him who his lawyer was. “Nico LaHood,” Green said, identifying the Bexar County district attorney by name, according to a dashcam video of the arrest. “How about that?” continued Green, the subject of a San Antonio Express-News investigation published last weekend. “That’s my (expletive) lawyer. Nico LaHood. Yeah, yeah, that’s who I’ll (expletive) call. … That’s who I’m calling. Nico LaHood. You bet your ass.
