Texas Judge Grants Easter PR Bonds to Rioting El Paso Border Migrants — Blames DA

Bob Price 1 Apr 2024

A Texas magistrate judge ordered that migrant accused in the March 21 El Paso border riot be released on a personal recognizance bond on Easter Sunday. The judge accused the El Paso District Attorney’s Office of not being prepared to proceed on detention hearings required under Texas law.

Presiding Magistrate Judge Humberto Acosta set PR bonds for the migrants accused of rioting participation on Easter Sunday, according to the El Paso Times. “It is the ruling of the court that all the rioting participation cases will be released on their own recognizance,” Judge Acosta ordered.

Migrants being held on ICE immigration detainers will remain in custody, court officials told the local news outlet.

Judge Acosta blamed the office of El Paso County District Attorney Bill Hicks for not being prepared for the detention hearings. The Texas Code of Criminal Procedure requires that migrants arrested without a warrant have a hearing before a magistrate judge within 48 hours of their arrest.

Additional magistrate hearings for arrested migrants are scheduled for Monday, the newspaper reported.

And Just Like That the Border Stampeders were Released by an El Paso Judge
Karen Townsend


Presiding Magistrate Judge Humberto Acosta delivered a ruling on Easter Sunday during an online teleconference bond hearing in which he released hundreds of illegal aliens on their own recognizance. The El Paso judge said that only those with an immigration hold on them will remain jailed.

Why did he do that? Acosta said that the El Paso District Attorney's Office was not ready to proceed with detention hearings for each defendant. Another hearing is scheduled for more defendants today.

These illegal aliens are the ones who produced a "border riot" as they stampeded over the border which overwhelmed National Guard troops along the Rio Grande River. It happened on March 21. Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) arrested them. They were mostly male and from Venezuela. They tore down razor wire along the river and then rushed the border fence. The location was at Border Safety Initiative Marker No. 36 in the Riverside area of El Paso's Lower Valley.

Wonderful! 

Actually, it's now easier to just let them all in -- no vetting needed, no fighting back, and no accountability, just let the U.S. become a dumping ground.
