This is the last day to file charges due to Texas Statute of Limitations so 24 appears to be the total number of Austin police that will be charged.
A defense is being mounted and has received some judicial help against Austin DA...

Don't be a cop in a liberal ****hole. Problem solved.

In Texas

You see BLM rioters are allowed on the streets with AK-47s and can point them at drivers after stopping and surrounding vehicles

But cars are not allowed to drive down streets and police are not allowed to protect citizens!

Total injustice.

What has happened to Texas!

Texans don't have much right to criticize California or New York any longer!

Those Austin's F-tards are begging cops to come out of of retirement. My BIL told them to stick it.

Fortunately, there are still some who want to do things right.

I do think Abbott should not bail out Austin, when **** hits the fan.

Every cop in Austin needs to resign tomorrow. Let the criminals have that leftist ****hole and burn it to the ground

This is what happens when you vote for that D.

Only thing you can do, is sit back and watch Austin burn.

Abbott is in bed with Austin... He will not be looking to let Austin learn a hard lesson and would rather give them a tax payer funded soft landing so they can continue being a stain on this state.

At least they should all call in sick for the rest of the week. That would be interesting and well deserved to Austin Dems/Libs that vote for this *****

Have they been charged or just presenting to the grand jury?

I'm not a lawyer, can you explain the difference.
I always thought if the DA "presented to the Grand Jury" that was synonymous with "charging".

I'm not an attorney either, just a helicopter enthusiast.

If the grand jury doesn't find enough evidence to charge or indict or whatever it's called, this goes away. The article refers to whether the grand jury comes back with charges, so I just think details matter. The right getting all worked up over falsities is just as bad as the left doing it.

What a mess, these officers were ordered to fire bean bags and are now being treated like criminals.
Sure Austin has paid for injuries to protestors but that was Austin's choice because it failed to defend itself from the charges and settled over and over again.

And the war on the police continues. I just can't imagine being young and wanting to go into this career. We are going to be in deep **** when there are massive shortages and the officers who are hired will be substandard.

You have much better things to be doing than hanging out and posting on Texags. Go back to work.

Those counties and cities in need of officers should be recruiting APD big time.

They have been. Heck, even Art Acevedo in Houston was recruiting APD officers.

You can see the alternate universe on the Austin board, where some Austinites think it's just fine. The cops have plenty of funding. True. But not because they weren't defunded. It's because officers have quit, and they can't hire anyone new.

There as a reddit thread, where folks were criticizing APD for not responding to gunshots in a particular neighborhood. Fire the officers was the threat.

This is the land of commies like Greg Casar. I'm all for eliminating the police force, and having social workers. Let the people deal with the consequences
