of jail awaiting trial for those charges after posting bond nearly two weeks ago. but the fact he’s out of jail has many in the borderland upset. local facebook users are angry at his release and are sharing his picture and warning the community to make sure he’s not out drinking and driving. garcia was serving time for a separate dwi after the crash. he fulfilled the requirements for that misdemeanor offense, granting him the ability to then post bond for the intoxicated manslaughter charges, online records show that was a surety bond for 150-thousand dollars. different factors play a role in the amount and conditions of a bond. local attorney justin underwood isn’t part of the case, but was able to offer insight into the bond process: “every single time you have a person in front of a judge, that judge gets to know background information about them. where they come from, what kind of criminal history, all the things that we mentioned and the judges under the law of texas authority, to set bond they believe are appropriate.” no date has been set for garcia’s trial. an appelate court ruling will determine if key evidence– like a blood sample police took without a warrant– will be thrown out. now to an abc-7 traffic alert — if you thought traffic in west el paso’s been bad, get ready for it to be a whole lot worse. sunday, i-ten will be completely closed in
