New details have emerged in the Texas shooting rampage that left six people dead, including the heroic mother who saved her 18-month-old son. Court documents reveal that the suspect, Shane James, allegedly killed his parents before embarking on a shooting spree in multiple cities. The husband of one of the victims described his wife as an "angel" who sacrificed her life to protect their child. James has been charged with capital murder and was a former U.S. Army officer. The investigation is ongoing, and authorities believe James is responsible for all the incidents.
A mother and her daughter with disabilities have been identified as the final two victims in the Austin shooting rampage that left four people dead and three others injured. The suspect, Shane James, was arrested and charged with killing the mother and daughter, along with his parents in Bexar County and two other people in Austin. The incident has shocked the quiet and tight-knit community of Circle C, where the victims lived, leaving residents in disbelief.
Shane James, the suspect charged with capital murder in a series of attacks that left six people dead in Bexar County and Austin, was previously bonded out of the Bexar County Jail by the Texas Organizing Project (TOP), a group advocating for bail reform. James had three pending cases for misdemeanor assault causing bodily injury-family in Bexar County. Warrants for his re-arrest were issued after he cut off his ankle monitor. TOP has faced criticism for bailing out defendants who cannot afford bond. The organization expressed sadness and will conduct a comprehensive review of its bail program.
