Mike Ramos

The impasse is a setback for Travis County District Attorney José Garza, whose office indicted Taylor in 2021. Garza will likely pursue another trial.

Taylor is accused of murdering Mike Ramos while on duty in 2020. Expert witnesses played a big role in the prosecutors' case. Defense attorneys are focusing on the high-risk, split-decision nature of policing.

Taylor is charged in the fatal shooting of Mike Ramos in 2020. Ramos' character, the police department's training protocols and officers' communication issues were at the center of this week's arguments.

Ramos was fatally shot by a police officer in 2020. More than three years later, the officer will go on trial for murder.

The Austin Police Department released a long-awaited report Friday detailing the police response to racial justice protests, which injured dozens.

Three plaintiffs say Austin police officers used excessive force when they fired at protesters during racial justice protests in 2020.

Christopher Taylor and another officer have been indicted in the case of Mauris DeSilva, a 46-year-old neuroscientist. DeSilva was having a mental health crisis in July 2019 when he was fatally shot by police.

Newly minted Travis County District Attorney José Garza also laid out plans to pursue 21 other cases involving police shootings, deaths in custody, use-of-force and an accusation of sexual assault.

Ramos was fatally shot in April. While a criminal investigation into the shooting has been inactive for months, incoming District Attorney José Garza has pledged to bring it before a grand jury in 2021.
