AUSTIN (AP) - The embattled chairman of the Texas Forensic Science Commission will be out of the job next week.
The state Senate Nominations Committee has ended its work this session without voting on John Bradley's appointment. His term will end when the Legislative session concludes Monday.
Gov. Rick Perry appointed Bradley, the Williamson County district attorney, to lead the commission in 2009, just days before it was to hear a critical report of the original investigation of arson evidence in a death row case.
Cameron Todd Willingham was executed in 2004. Critics have said new science standards suggest the blaze that killed his children was not arson and that he was wrongly executed.
Bradley slowed down the panel's work and pushed members to find no misconduct by fire investigators.
