Bexar County won’t officially decide on its new district attorney until November, but voters must take their first steps toward selecting the next top prosecutor in March.

Shannon Locke, a longtime criminal defense attorney in San Antonio and Bexar County, has announced plans to run for the county’s top prosecutor position.

Nearly 30 percent of Bexar County defendants bonded out by the Texas Organizing Project as part of its bail program were later taken back into custody in the same case, records obtained by KSAT Investigates show.

A convicted San Antonio thief who used a different name to cull new victims pleaded no contest Wednesday in state district court to four felony theft cases.
