Mercy's Trial - Okay to Cross-Post

[Guest guest]

DeShawn Brown's trial is still set for August 6, but I wanted to give you an

update on Mercy's case. Brown has been in the courtroom for two pre-trial

motion hearings this month, and I was subpoenaed by the defense for the last

one this past Thursday.

 

The prosecutor, Mr. David Alex, has requested a bond hearing for Brown on

Monday, July 2; that is, he is going to ask that Brown's bond be revoked. If

you are available and would like to show support for Mercy, you might want to

make plans to be there:

 

Frank Crowley Courts Building

 

Criminal District Court No. 6

6th Floor

133 N. Industrial (at Commerce)

Dallas

 

The most convenient parking is in the garage adjacent to the Crowley

building. There's another garage on the other side of Industrial, and a

parking lot across Commerce.

 

Court generally starts at 9 a.m. This doesn't mean Brown's case will be

first. If I learn a specific time before July 2, I'll send another email.

Otherwise, you should plan to be there by 9 AM.

 

A few things to know before entering the courthouse and the courtroom:

 

- No cameras or nail clippers are allowed in the building (you'll have

to take them back to your car or leave them; they won't be returned).

-No photos can be taken with cell phones in the courtroom (phones

will be confiscated).

- No clothing with a message (so no Mercy T-shirts) is allowed in the

courtroom.

-Attire is to be neat and professional, no flip-flops, shorts,

cutoffs, etc.

- The courtroom is very small. There are only 10 rows available to

the public; each will seat 8-10 people. There's no standing room; everyone

must be seated. Seating is first-come, first-served.

 

Thank you for your continued interest in seeing justice served for Mercy.
