Manhunt for Texas murder suspect Trevor McEuen enrages officials demanding stricter bail: ‘they will walk'
Fox News
Texas murder suspect Trevor McEuen is still on the run after he failed to show up to the start of his trial on Monday, leading the local district attorney to demand stricter bail.
"As our community continues to await the apprehension of Trevor McEuen, the individual indicted for the capital murder of Mr. Martinez, Kaufman County District Attorney Erleigh Wiley expresses her strong support for Governor Abbott's proposed bail reform legislation," the Kaufman County DA's office said in a Tuesday press release. "This legislation seeks a constitutional amendment that would empower judges to deny bond to individuals charged with violent offenses, including capital murder." "They exemplified the American Dream and had started a horse training ranch." Audrey Conklin is a digital reporter for Fox News Digital and FOX Business.

The DA's office further noted that a court imposed a $2 million bond for McEuen after his arrest, "along with the strictest possible conditions, including electric monitoring and house arrest."
