Harris County prosecutors have identified nearly two dozen criminal cases that could be in jeopardy after they linked them to a Houston homicide detective fired for lying and conducting shoddy investigations.

This handout image from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) shows Hurricane Ike appearing as a large and powerful storm in the Gulf of Mexico on September 11, 2008. The coastal city of Galveston, Texas faces complete inundation from Hurricane Ike, and those who stay behind in one or two-storey homes "will face certain death," the National Hurricane Center said late September 11th. "All neighborhoods and possibly entire coastal communities will be inundated during the period of peak storm tide," the Center said in a special bulletin released at 0119 GMT ahead of the powerful storm's forecast landfall late Friday or early Saturday, September 12th-13th. "Persons not heeding evacuation orders in single family one- or two-story homes will face certain death," it said. AFP PHOTO / NOAA == GETTY OUT == (Photo credit should read -/AFP/Getty Images)
