Texas Governor Greg Abbott Working ‘Swiftly’ To Pardon Daniel Perry

Governor Greg Abbott of Texas announced on Saturday that he was attempting to secure Daniel Perry’s’s forgive following his conviction in a self-defense way.

A judge in Texas found Perry guilty of murder on Friday after he shot and killed a soldier who was carrying an AK-47 in 2020 while participating in the Black Lives Matter demonstration. Perry was neither found guilty of the charge of aggravated assault by the judge.

After the event, Perry wasn’t previously accused of any crimes, but district attorney Jose Garza decided to bring charges against Perry in 2021. Garza is one of many city prosecutors whose strategy George Soros, a billionaire Democrat megadonor, supported.

According to Abbott, Texas has one of the most powerful” Stand Your Ground” norms of self-defense that cannot be revoked by a judge or an aggressive district attorney. The Texas Constitution restricts the Governor’s’s forgive authority to acting only upon the Board of Pardons and Paroles’ request, unlike the President or some other state.

Abbott continued,” Texas law DOES permit the Governor to ask the Board of Pardons and Paroles to decide whether or not a person may be pardoned.” That demand has been made, and I have asked the Board to discuss it quickly. As soon as the Board’s’s request for a reprimand arrives at my desk, I look forward to approving it. However, I have already given reining in renegade district attorneys top priority, and the Texas Legislature is developing legislation to do so.

Abbott made the decision to pursue” rogue District Attorneys” after Florida Governor Ron DeSantis dispatched law enforcement to remove a woke Soros prosecutor from office in the state — the only instance in which such an official has been ousted by the governor.

Fugitt stated that” I had several conversations with the District Attorney’s’s Office regarding the presentation of exculpatory evidence related to Daniel Perry.” ” It became apparent to me that the District Attorney’s’s Office did not want to present Daniel Perry with evidence that would exonerate him before the grand jury.”

The Travis County Attorney’s’s Office” ordered me to remove exculpatory information that I had intended to present to the grand jury during my testimony on more than one occasion ,” he said. ” Almost all of the circumstantial evidence was ordered to be removed from my main 158 slip powerpoint presentation, which was reduced to 56 slides.” I felt as though I had no choice but to follow their instructions.

According to Fugitt, Garza’s’s order prohibiting the display of circumstantial evidence during the way” went ] from highly unethical behavior to legal conduct.”
