SAN ANTONIO – Judge Stephanie Boyd of the 187th District Court will not be presiding over the case of three former SAPD officers charged in connection to the fatal shooting of a woman inside her apartment last summer.
Boyd was recused from the case on Thursday after Judge Sid Harle with 4th Administrative Judicial Region granted the defense’s motion to recuse her from handling the case.
Sources originally have told KSAT attorneys for the former officers were unhappy with Boyd’s handling of the case.
A new judge has not yet been appointed.
Melissa Perez was shot and killed inside her Southwest Side apartment in June 2023.
KSAT will update this story as more information becomes available.
