<b>I want you to know,</b> <b>I don't know anything about your case.</b> <b>All I know is that you've now, as of 3-26 yesterday,</b> <b>you picked up a failure to stop and give information.</b> <b>What happened?</b> <b>Oh, hold on.</b> <b>You have the right to remain silent.</b> <b>Anything you say can or will be used against you.</b> <b>Okay, good.</b> <b>On March 25th, 2025,</b> <b>officers went into dispatch to 15357 Wallaceville Drive,</b> <b>Roosevelt Road in Harris County, Texas,</b> <b>regarding an FSGI call.</b> <b>Upon arrival, the officer spoke with the complainant</b> <b>who stated that she followed the defendant</b> <b>after the defendant's vehicle hit her twice</b> <b>and failed to stop and give information.</b> <b>The complainant stated that she was driving south bound</b> <b>on the East Sam Houston Parkway,</b> <b>and the defendant failed to drive in her lane</b> <b>and side swiped her, causing the vehicle</b> <b>damage to the right side panel of the defendant's vehicle.</b> <b>The complainant stated that she blew her horn</b> <b>several times for the defendant to stop</b> <b>and the defendant refused.</b> <b>The complainant followed for approximately three miles,</b> <b>to 15-242 Wallaceville Road,</b> <b>and the complainant of the defendant exited their vehicle,</b> <b>and the complainant told the defendant</b> <b>that she hit her vehicle and needed insurance information.</b> <b>The defendant then told the complainant no</b> <b>and that she was getting something to eat.</b> <b>The defendant went inside the business,</b> <b>exited and then entered her vehicle</b> <b>in an attempt to drive away.</b> <b>The complainant blew her horn several times</b> <b>to get the defendant to stop</b> <b>and told her the police were coming,</b> <b>but the defendant ignored the complainant.</b> <b>The defendant then began to put her vehicle</b> <b>in reverse and proceed backwards,</b> <b>hitting the complainant's vehicle a second time.</b> <b>The complainant-- </b> <b>So are you telling me that now it was intentional?</b> <b>Yes, your honor.</b> <b>The complainant moved her vehicle to avoid being hit</b> <b>and followed the defendant.</b> <b>The complainant flagged the police down</b> <b>to identify the defendant as the person</b> <b>who struck the vehicle.</b> <b>The estimated damage from the complainant</b> <b>was around $4,000, and the defendant said</b> <b>she didn't stop because she was hungry and colored.</b> <b>And what? </b> <b>Colored.</b> <b>Colored? </b> <b>Yes, Your Honor.</b> <b>Can you look at this to see if she has a valid Texas driver license? </b> <b>Yes.</b> <b>Ms. Gill, I'm going to find</b> <b>that there is sufficient probable cause</b> <b>to go forward with your case.</b> <b>Not only are you on a felony probation</b> <b>for assault of a peace officer,</b> <b>not only are you on felony probation</b> <b>for injury to a child under 15,</b> <b>but you pick up after both of those</b> <b>an evading arrest in a motor vehicle and now an FSGI.</b> <b>I am taking away your privilege to drive.</b> <b>You will now be signing an affidavit with me today,</b> <b>promising me you're not gonna drive.</b> <b>I don't give a rat's behind what your excuse is</b> <b>if I find that you drive in violation of this affidavit.</b> <b>I will have a contempt, I can have a contempt hearing.</b> <b>I will have a contempt, I can have a contempt hearing.</b> <b>You--</b> <b>I can have a contempt--</b> <b>[Attorney wispering]</b> <b>--just listen</b> <b>Just listen to him. Listen</b> <b>I'm so sorry. </b> <b>Finish, finish.</b> <b>I'm a commercial driver.</b> <b>Really?</b> <b>Yes</b> <b>Really? </b> <b>Yes</b> <b>You, if you do, have a CDL,</b> <b>All right, that is correct, she does have a valid CDL.</b> <b>are held to even higher standard because of that CDL.</b> <b>You now have a total of four open cases,</b> <b>one of those being this FSGI</b> <b>and an evading arrest in a motor vehicle.</b> <b>I am taking away your privilege to drive.</b> <b>If I find that you do, I can have a contempt hearing.</b> <b>You can be facing an additional six months in jail</b> <b>and a $500 fine.</b> <b>I truly am at a loss with the attitude.</b> <b>Okay, your honor, I said okay</b> <b>Truely</b> <b>This case here, not only do we have an FSGI,</b> <b>but it's also alleged that you backed up</b> <b>and hit the person intentionally.</b> <b>Because, </b> <b>allegedly</b> <b>hungry and colored.</b> <b>So now, this is an affidavit,</b> <b>and I hope that you take it seriously.</b> <b>Because if you don't,</b> <b>there will truly be disastrous consequences.</b> <b>Ms. Gill, I want you to understand</b> <b>that I'm going to do everything in my power</b> <b>to protect my public at all costs.</b> <b>Do you understand?</b> <b>I understand you, Your Honor.</b> <b>May I make argument for a PR bond, your honor?</b> <b>Ha ha ha ha ha</b> <b>She's made a bond in the felony already.</b> <b>And even with the affidavit to not drive,</b> <b>I expressed to her that that was a possibility</b> <b>of a bond condition.</b> <b>I've spoken with her.</b> <b>She has family members who can help her</b> <b>get to and from court.</b> <b>She's a single mother of two children.</b> <b>She has lived at this address here in Houston</b> <b>for the past five years.</b> <b>She lives with her mother.</b> <b>She lives with her younger brother.</b> <b>She has lived in Harris County her entire life.</b> <b>And she has, in these felonies,</b> <b>she's actually applied to be put in mental health court</b> <b>because during this incident and the felonies,</b> <b>she was unmedicated,</b> <b>and she has a history of mental health diagnoses.</b> <b>And so, as a client of the Harris County</b> <b>Public Defender's Office,</b> <b>we have every intention of getting her treatment</b> <b>for those mental health issues.</b> <b>But she's already made a bond in the felony,</b> <b>and she is willing to abide by any condition</b> <b>that this court will impose on her.</b> <b>It's down to the difference between zero and $100.</b> <b>And--</b> <b>So, I appreciate your argument.</b> <b>She is not, she's technically your right on bond.</b> <b>My feeling is that these felony courts</b> <b>probably do not know that she has now</b> <b>picked up this case yet.</b> <b>So, I don't know what, if anything,</b> <b>they're going to do when they do discover this.</b> <b>I find, you know, Ms. Goucher, right?</b> <b>Is that what Ms. Goucher?</b> <b>I really appreciate your argument going to bat for her,</b> <b>but I think with her demeanor, her attitude,</b> <b>her reckless and wanton action on the road,</b> <b>is that she -- you are a danger to the public.</b> <b>And your bond is now set at a thousand,</b> <b>and I'm going to raise it to five,</b> <b>because I think that you really are a danger to the public.</b> <b>And your attitude shows us and tells me that,</b> <b>hey, I'm going to do what I want to do, and that's it.</b> <b>And it's, that's always, I mean, really,</b> <b>Don't say anything</b> <b>How many people died this weekend on the road</b> <b>because of the reckless and wanton actions, you know?</b> <b>All we want are our streets to be safe.</b> <b>You're not helping me your honor. </b> <b>You're not helping me.</b> <b>I'm struggling, I'm a single mom,</b> <b>and I've been struggling with the courts for years already,</b> <b>and I'm tired of this, okay?</b> <b>I was beat, I was beat, okay, in front of my children,</b> <b>and I was thrown on the ground like an animal, okay?</b> <b>And I'm tired of this, I'm tired of all of this, okay?</b> <b>In front of my children, my children have trauma, okay?</b> <b>And I have no insurance for the medication,</b> <b>and I have not been on the medication.</b> <b>I'm trying to get the insurance to get on the medication.</b> <b>Ms. Gill, I understand that, but at some point,</b> <b>your actions become your own, right?</b> <b>You don't understand, I'm colored,</b> <b>you don't understand me.</b> <b>You don't understand me.</b> <b>If I was a different color, you would.</b> <b>It's true</b> <b>That so not--</b> <b>True, it's so true, and you know this,</b> <b>You know what I'm talking about.</b> <b>I call out discrimination when I see it on a daily basis, ma'am</b> <b>I don't care who it is, I don't care what color,</b> <b>they're small farm animals, I don't care.</b> <b>I call it when I see it.</b> <b>The only thing, because I don't know you.</b> <b>The way I get to know you is paper,</b> <b>and they tell me what happens in the case,</b> <b>and from what I see here, and what has transpired here</b> <b>within the last 10 minutes.</b> <b>Really?</b> <b>Officer Harris
