A Texas judge has denied a retrial for Daniel Perry, a U.S. Army sergeant who was convicted of killing an armed protester during an encounter at a Black Lives Matter protest in Austin, Texas, in 2020.
Perry was found guilty of murder last month after he fatally shot Garrett Foster—who had approached his car while openly carrying an AK-47-style rifle. Perry’s legal team quickly filed a motion for a retrial in the case, arguing they were denied the ability to present key evidence and that the jury was swayed by outside influences and other jury misconduct.
State District Judge Clifford Brown, who presided over the original trial, denied Perry’s retrial request after a brief hearing on Wednesday.

And, as expected, the bloviating ass clown Abbott hasn’t done squat, just like his inaction at the border... gutless POS.
Didn’t gov Abbott state he will pardon Perry?
Progressive leftists in all government capacities need to be rooted out and destroyed simply because if not done now these United States Of America will be. “McCarthy was a sage before his time” L.Star
“State District Judge Clifford Brown, who presided over the original trial, denied Perry’s retrial request ...”
Well, if they file an appeal, that will go to a different judge at least.
Another rigged outcome. It seems brother judge Brown is another jurist all too happy to obtain politically pleasing outcome over a just one.
Happening alot these days.
He’ll probably wait to do it the week before he leaves office.
If you’re a natural born American, you don’t stand a snowball’s chance in hell in the kangaroo courts in this country. All the “judges” suck and hate real Americans.
I have read commentary from others that said Texas does not allow the governor to pardon anyone unless they are recommended by the pardon and parole board.
The governor has said that as soon as he can legally pardon Perry, he will do so.
If what I have read is true, I believe I would hold my fire on the Texas Governor until he has had a chance to comply with Texas law.
I’d like to know how much money the “judge” has donated to Black Lies Matter.
Racist judge.
Abbott cannot do anything until the parole board recommends.
Of course this asshole would deny him a retrial. He was railroaded into a guilty verdict.
The judge and prosecutor(s) should be on Death Row, IMO.
I’ve learned my lesson.
Never, ever call the cops. Someone tries to break into your house and you defend yourself, bury the body, wash off the porch, and turn out the lights.
Do not go around…
Do not work around…
Do not live around…
…people who do not openly and wholeheartedly embrace 1st world, European, Judeo Christian culture.
If you do, the system will not protect you against their savage behavior.
That’s right. Abbott is Pence
I thought this had to automatically be heard by a different judge. Especially since he had made the ruling that excluded evidence the defense had argued to use for their client.
Where is Gov. Abbot on this issue?
No. He’ll probably do it as soon as the board of pardons lets him ... as spelled out in Texas law.
He said he's working on it. It will probably happen about the same time that Kevin McCarthy releases all the January 6th video.
Abbott can’t do anything until the board that he appointed does something.
-Abbott apologists en masse
Reality is the blind man saw this coming 8 miles away and is wondering why the board that Abbott appointed did not have a document to be signed.
