Soros DA put murder case on 'back burner' because it doesn't 'fit' liberal agenda: victim's family

Thomas Villarreal of the Austin Police Association discusses the police department's decision to implement artificial intelligence software in an effort to alleviate their officer shortage on "Fox & Friends Weekend." The family of a man killed in one of Austin, Texas' most infamous shootings blasted the local district attorney for putting the case on the "back burner" because it didn't fit his progressive agenda. Travis County District Attorney Jose Garza, funded by left-wing billionaire George Soros, is letting the nearly two-year case languish and is instead prioritizing cases that fit a political agenda, said Nick Kantor, whose brother, Doug, was killed in gang crossfire on June 12, 2021, that left more than a dozen innocent bystanders wounded. Doug Kantor, then 25 and working for Ford Motor Co., was visiting Austin from Michigan to celebrate earning his master's degree with friends when two rival gangs of teenagers from Killeen, Texas, opened fire on each other in the city's packed Sixth Street entertainment and nightlife hub. Doug Kantor, a New York native who had just bought a new home and was set to marry his high school sweetheart, was killed in the shooting and 13 other innocent bystanders were injured in the hail of bullets from both gangs that became the largest mass casualty incident in Austin in about a decade.
