Uvalde Trial: Potential Mistrial Hearing Over Undisclosed Evidence

Key Hearing on Undisclosed Evidence

• ⚖️ A crucial hearing is underway regarding potential Brady violations or violations of the Michael Morton Act in Texas.
• 📌 This hearing could potentially lead to a mistrial in the Uvalde school shooting trial.

Teacher's Testimony and Defense Argument

• 👩‍🏫 A teacher testified to seeing a man in black carrying a rifle on the south side of the school.
• 🎯 This testimony challenges the defense's argument that the officer on trial, Adrian Gonzalez, could not have had a line of sight of the shooter.

Alleged Discovery Violation

• 📄 The core issue is that the teacher's statement about seeing the man with the rifle was reportedly not disclosed to the defense during initial interviews with Texas Rangers.
• 🗣️ It is alleged that prosecutors interviewed the teacher before the trial and did not turn over these notes to the defense.
• 🗓️ Defense attorneys claim prosecutors knew how the teacher would testify since December 2025 and should have disclosed this exculpatory evidence.

Defense Attorney Statements

• 🎤 Lead defense attorney Nika Lood stated their belief in a potential Brady or Michael Morton Act violation.
• 📰 Defense attorneys spoke after live coverage, discussing the courtroom events and their arguments regarding the undisclosed evidence.
