  • Decent sentence in the offing

    A suspect has been arrested in connection with a hit-and-run accident that killed a bicycle rider in Wichita Falls in 2022.

    Jose Guadalupe Medina Martinez, 64, was found dead near a bicycle at Martin Luther King Boulevard and Flood Street about 5:15 a.m. on Oct. 24. Police said it appeared Martinez had been struck by a vehicle that left the scene.

    Jesus Mondragon of Wichita Falls was indicted on a charge of Accident Involving Death on May 3 and was arrested and jailed in lieu of $100,000 bond. He is also being held without bond on an ICE detainer.

    An affidavit filed in the case claims Mondragon left the scene without stopping to render aid.

    If convicted, Mondragon could face two to 10 years in prison.

    I've been there (on my way from Dallas to Lubbock and Amarillo - it is
    the way to Amarillo).

    I didn't see any chavs on bikes. Not one.

    For an *accident*?

    Texas juries aren't that harsh.
