Over the last two years, there has been an escalating battle between the state and the people. Between police killings, accusations of police brutality and riots that happened as a result, our society is watching history repeat itself.
Police in Texas are on the hunt in search for the person who shot a county judge and left her in critical condition.
Travis County judge, Julie Kocurek was shot in the driveway of her own home on Friday night.
It is unclear what the shooters were trying to accomplish with the shooting and police teams are working to see if the Texan judge was being targeted.
Kocurek and her family were arriving at their home in Austin when the shooting occurred. Julie was rushed to University Medical Center Brackenridge and listed to be in serious condition, though Austin Police Department Commander, Mark Spangler stated,
“This injury, although extremely serious, does not appear to be life-threatening.”
A search was conducted Friday night with the goal of locating the shooter, but no suspects have been confirmed.
According to USA Today, Julie has handled several high-profile cases.
This story certainly sounds a lot like a novela.
