San Antonio, Texas' top police official turned to social media on Friday and questioned how a repeat offender with a long rap sheet could walk freely and shoot two officers.
At about 5 p.m. Thursday, two San Antonio Police Department officers responded to the area of a wanted suspect who left his apartment complex with a long gun before getting into a vehicle being driven by an unidentified person.
San Antonio Police Department Chief Bill McManus said the suspect, later identified as Jesse Garcia, saw police behind them and started shooting, hitting one of the officers.
The duo then carjacked a different vehicle and fled to another apartment complex before shooting and wounding a second officer multiple times, the chief added.
Garcia barricaded himself in the apartment complex and was eventually taken into custody.
"One of the concerning aspects surrounding the shooting of our [officers] last night…the [suspect] was out on 2 bonds for almost a [year], despite committing more crimes & being re-arrested & wanted on 3 [different] warrants," McManus posted to X the next morning. "Why wasn’t he in jail? Why weren’t his bonds increased? People want to know."

Did you know life has a laugh track? I just heard it.
It’s curious how the race of the suspect wasn’t mentioned. You know what that means.
When are the idiot cops going to realize that have become minions of Satan, the cops and the cop-killers are on the SAME SIDE DUDE!

The man asks, “Why wasn’t he in jail?” Reply: “Who did you vote for, for DA; for Police Commissioner; for judge? If your answers have a “D” beside them; then you know why.
democratic city government and bidens open borders let
this scum bag in the country.
Ask your woke judges.
Jesse Garcia - I don't have much trouble figuring out what he must look like.
I think this cop needs to call the Sheriff, and have the Sheriff arrest the Judges that let these criminals out so easily. Sounds like treason to me. Or at least not upholding the Constitution.
BTW - who is the Fulton County, GA judge that kept letting that 25-year old car thief out numerous times that ended up crashing and killing himself?
No their not, just captives of an evil dark lord hell bent on destroying them. They know what's going on, they can't do anything given power matrix of the left. I hope they hang in there we will need them when the time comes.
The police chief is a democrat.
He voted for releasing criminals to kill cops and others.
Fake tears.
Jesse Garcia. Want to take a wild guess?
Phony outrage. He knows why.
Perhaps if he was this concerned when the victims are not cops, he wouldn’t need to ask those questions.
Coulter’s Law applies.
I’m wondering why more police officers arent in jail.
Any and all cop shooters are heroes to the Obama / Biden Regime.
Just wait. In some places the suicide bombers are celebrated. They even name streets and buildings after the bombers. The suicide bomber families receive money for life.
I can see a future where the cop killers are celebrated (in the the DemocRAT cities).
The police chief has little to do with incarcerating perps. That's up to DA's, judges, juries etc.
