A nonprofit funded by billionaire George Soros donated over $1.2 million to the Texas Organizing Project, a left-wing group that previously bailed out Shane James, the suspect charged with killing six people in Texas. The Texas Organizing Project received $700,000 in 2019 and $565,000 in 2021 from Soros' nonprofit. These donations accounted for a significant portion of the group's reported funds in those years. The Texas Organizing Project has faced criticism for its involvement in bailing out James, with critics arguing that Soros and the group undermine the justice system. The Open Society Policy Center, a Soros-funded advocacy nonprofit, expressed support for reviewing the Texas Organizing Project's programs in light of the tragic events.

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.
