  • Justin Berry was among 19 Austin police officers charged last week with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon for actions in the summer of 2020

  • Berry and his colleagues were tasked with responding to the George Floyd protests, which descended into violence

  • Hours before the charges against the police were announced, Austin city leaders approved paying $10 million to two people injured by police in the protests

  • The injured including a college student who suffered brain damage

    after an officer shot him with a beanbag round - a tactic no longer authorized in Austin

  • Berry, who is running as a Republican for election to the House in Texas, with the primary to be held on March 1, said that the Travis County top prosecutor, Jose Garza - a member of the Democratic Socialists of America party backed by funds from George Soros - has a vendetta against police

  • The indictments were also strongly criticized by Austin's chief of police and the president of the policing union
