Texas murder suspect granted bond after police data loss
Fox News
A Texas man who was scheduled for trial on a murder charge this week was instead granted release on bond amid concern that material in his case might be among troves of police data lost from the Dallas department’s computer system.
The release of Pitts, who is charged in the 2019 shooting of Shun Handy, was ordered as authorities race to determine how many cases may have had evidence vanish in the eight-terabyte data loss. Prosecutors told Judge Ernie White on Thursday that they needed more time to work with police to audit the materials in Pitts’ case to determine whether anything was lost. The district attorney's office had reached out to the homicide detective on the case Thursday to confirm all evidence was available for trial, the police department said in a statement. The detective said he would need more time to confirm.More Related News
