SAN ANTONIO – Bexar County District Attorney Joe Gonzales on Tuesday announced that veteran prosecutor Daryl Harris will lead a newly established civil rights division within the DA’s office.
The division was founded following the civil unrest in the wake of the death of George Floyd in Minnesota police custody.
The Bexar County Commissioners Court approved the division and allocated funding for it.
“The big motivation, as far as I’m concerned, in the establishment of this division and the reason I sought funding for it, is because of after George Floyd,” Gonzales said Tuesday.
