A judge in Texas was forced to hit the panic button in her court and call in security after the brother of a murdered teenager attacked the 17-year-old accused of killing her.
Judge Hazel Jones had to call for security at her courtroom in Houston after Abel Alvarez flew at Frank DeLeon, 17, over the January 11 murder of Alvarez's sister Diamond Alvarez, 16.
Diamond was shot 22 times as she walked the family dog, Peanut, near her home.
Her on-off boyfriend DeLeon, 17, was arrested on January 17 and charged with her murder.
DeLeon was freed on a $250,000 bond, but was taken back into custody on Monday after his ankle monitor showed he had left house arrest without alerting authorities. His family said it was to go to church; the Alvarez family said the church was closed on Monday.
'You have to remember the emotion in this family is high,' said Cesar Espinosa, an advocate for immigrants with FIEL, the largest immigrant rights organization in Texas (Familias Inmigrantes y Estudiantes en la Lucha).
'We ask the public to put yourself in this family's shoes. What would you do if you had to face your daughter's killer in court?'

ABSOLUTELY.
Same goes for all functions of government. It will get there.
She be woke.
Shot 22 times in the back? Your honor, I find this a bit excessive. What weapon did these people have that was capable of shooting 22 rounds? Not your ordinary pistol or rifle. Sounds like a drug gang hit.
I remember watching that video. I think the Dad (shooter) got 500 hrs of community service for that one.
Yup and wearing a full face shield
Shame the brother couldn’t finish the job
Kick them all out of the country.
Every last one of them.
Today.

300 hours and five years probation, which he completed.
He died in 2014 of natural causes at age 68. Before his death, Plauché gave one last interview, where he stated that he did not regret killing Doucet and would do so again.
Awesome, that you.
Indeed.
Natural rights prevail in the face of unrighteous unlawful govt.
The social contract bespoken by Locke requires an impartial and just representative system of govt to remove the common state of war among wronged men and replace it with justice.
When justice fails as an institution, that state of war returns.
Scary.
And leftist/snowflakes everywhere marvel when millions of previously unarmed citizens begin to acquire arms. They ain’t getting them for sport shooting I van tell you that!
Its well past the point of that. Just waiting for something to happen.
Excellent
Horrendous headline!
I’m kinda of suprised he had the gumption to attack after being shot 22 times! I wonder if he managed to hold on to the murdered sister’s dog after all of that?
Piss poor judicial temperament, IMHO.
I think DeLeon and Alvarez should share a cell. Alvarez gets to bring one machete if he promises to be good.
He should have gone for the judge first.
Family of murder victims should be once again allowed to enact justice. That’s how it was done before the “legal justice system”, which doesn’t work, replaced true justice.
In the nation that invented English, the DailyMail makes a Daily Hash of its headlines. Truly, they are masterpieces of overexplaining, garbled grammar, and slaughtered syntax.
Definitely a kill-whitey believer...
