As a whole, Harris County criminal court judges came under fire for issues relating to releasing violent offenders on low bonds.
HARRIS COUNTY, Texas -- The primary election proved to be a shake up for judges in Harris County. In the primary election, four incumbent criminal Democratic district court judges were beat by their opponents.Glass made headlines in September of 2021 when Houston police officer William 'Bill' Jeffrey was killed in the line of duty. Jeffrey and other officers were serving a high-level narcotics warrant to a 30-year-old suspect at the time.
Jason Luong, who currently serves as judge in the 185th district court, will face current Harris County prosecutor Andrea Beall in a run off. Beall led the race by 13% in the primary. "In a low information race, when you have a woman running against a man in the Democratic primary, odds are the woman is going to win because there are significantly more women who participate in the Harris County Democratic primary. When they get to a race and they don't know anything about the candidates, they tend to vote based off gender," Jones said.
