Prosecutor seeks reversal of Abbott pardon in fatal Austin shooting
Travis County District Attorney Jose Garza asks the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals to review Gov. Greg Abbott's pardon of Daniel Perry who killed Garrett Foster at a downtown Austin protest in July 2020. Perry was released from prison after a 25 year murder sentence, while Garza U.S. and state constitutional questions about the pardon. Foster's family condemns the action. Perry's lawyers defend the pardon as constitutional and appropriate under Stand Your Ground. The case has drawn federal interest from 14 Democratic attorneys general.
